Anaesthesia is generally not required for topical exosome treatments, as these are painless and involve only surface application or microneedling. However, if micro-injections are used to deliver exosomes directly into the scalp, a local anaesthetic may be applied to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.
The local numbing agent is safe, short-acting and ensures that the experience is virtually painless. Since the procedure is outpatient and non-invasive, general anesthesia is never needed. Most clients remain fully awake, relaxed and comfortable throughout the session.
This approach allows for immediate post-treatment feedback and ensures that clinicians can adapt techniques in real-time for optimal absorption and follicle stimulation. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, patient comfort is a priority and our protocols are designed to make every session smooth, safe and minimally intrusive.
