About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the potential effects of mesenchymal stem cell-derived suspended exosome therapy on facial skin quality using objective imaging analysis. Forty adult participants will receive intradermal exosome applications in three treatment sessions performed at one-month intervals. Facial skin analysis will be conducted using the VISIA imaging system before each treatment session and six months after the final treatment. The study will examine changes in multiple facial skin characteristics including wrinkles, pigmentation, skin texture, pores, UV spots, red areas, brown spots, and porphyrins to determine whether exosome therapy may improve overall facial skin quality.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in composite VISIA absolute score
Absolute scores will be obtained for each VISIA skin parameter, including wrinkles, skin texture irregularities, pore size, ultraviolet (UV) spots, red areas, brown spots, and porphyrins. The VISIA system calculates absolute scores based on the size, intensity, and total affected area of the detected features within each parameter. A composite score will be generated by calculating the mean of the absolute scores across all evaluated parameters. Changes in the composite VISIA absolute score between baseline and the six-month follow-up after the final treatment session will be analyzed to assess overall changes in facial skin quality.
Secondary outcomes
Change in VISIA wrinkle feature count
Evaluation of changes in VISIA wrinkle feature count between baseline and the final follow-up assessment.
Change in VISIA wrinkle absolute score
Evaluation of changes in VISIA wrinkle absolute score between baseline and the final follow-up assessment.
Change in VISIA wrinkle percentile ranking
Evaluation of changes in VISIA wrinkle percentile ranking between baseline and the final follow-up assessment.
Change in VISIA skin texture feature count
Evaluation of changes in VISIA skin texture feature count between baseline and the final follow-up assessment.
