Quick answer
Key takeaways
- 01PRP is autologous (from you); exosomes are sourced externally
- 02PRP has a longer evidence track; exosome data is earlier-stage
- 03Cost varies — exosomes often price higher per session
- 04Sourcing transparency is the single most important question for exosomes
Side-by-side
- 01Source: PRP — autologous · Exosomes — external supplier
- 02Evidence: PRP — stronger · Exosomes — emerging
- 03Cadence: similar — typically 4–6 sessions then maintenance
- 04Cost band: exosomes often 30–60% higher per session
The decision
If you want the established option, PRP. If you want to layer an emerging adjunct on top of a proven foundation, exosomes can have a role — provided sourcing is transparent.
