Stem Cell Derived Exosomes in the Treatment of Melasma and Its Percutaneous Penetration

Sponsor: Fujian Medical University Union Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Melasma is a refractory skin disease due to its complex pathogenesis and difficult treatment. Studies have found that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (hUCMSC-Exos) could serve as a novel cell-free therapeutic strategy in regenerative and aesthetic medicine. It could potentially treat melasma, but the skin barrier is a challenge. This study aims to explore the safety and efficacy of hUCMSC-Exos in the treatment of melasma and means to promote its percutaneous penetration.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser combined with normal saline

After 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser treatment, patients with melasma were smeared with normal saline and to compared with those smeared with exosomes after laser treatment.

PROCEDURE

microneedles combined with hUCMSC-Exos

the hUCMSC-Exos were applied while rolling a microneedle roller and to compared with those used 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser or PBASM combined with hUCMSC-Exos.

PROCEDURE

1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser combined with hUCMSC-Exos

After 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser treatment, patients with melasma were smeared with hUCMSC-Exos and to compared with those smeared with normal saline after laser treatment.What's more,compared with those used microneedles or PBASM combined with hUCMSC-Exos.

PROCEDURE

PBASM combined with hUCMSC-Exos

a plasma named Peninsula Blue Aurora Shumin Master (PBASM) rolling each area for 8-10 min before applying the hUCMSC-Exos in the entire face. And to compared with those used 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser or microneedles combined with hUCMSC-Exos.
