Efficacy of Rose Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes (RSCEs) in Skin Treatment: From Healing to Hyperpigmentation Management: Case Series and Review.

Objective: To present and analyze eight clinical cases illustrating the use of rose stem cell-derived exosomes (RSCEs) in treating various dermatological conditions and to review current literature on plant-derived exosomes in medicine and dermatology.

Background: RSCEs possess low cytotoxicity, high biocompatibility, and effective cellular uptake, making them promising agents for dermatological therapies. A literature review included in the introduction and discussion covers the broader role of plant-derived exosomes, highlighting their therapeutic potential in skin treatment.

Methods: A case-by-case analysis was conducted on eight patients with conditions including atopic dermatitis (AD), hyperpigmentation, scarring, wounds, melasma, and antiaging concerns. Each case provided insights into RSCEs' efficacy, with a focus on their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as specific learning points derived from clinical observations.

Results: The cases demonstrated RSCEs' multifaceted therapeutic effects across different skin conditions, supporting their role in enhancing skin regeneration, wound healing, and reducing hyperpigmentation and scarring. The literature review underscored RSCEs' unique bioactivity, suggesting mechanisms for their observed effects, including anti-inflammatory and rejuvenating properties, which contributed to favorable clinical outcomes.

Conclusion: RSCEs show potential as a valuable treatment in dermatology, as evidenced by the positive results across multiple skin conditions and their alignment with existing literature on plant-derived exosomes. This case series emphasizes the need for further randomized and controlled clinical trials to confirm these preliminary findings and expand RSCEs' clinical application in dermatology.
