  • Patent number: 12642758
    Abstract: A use of plant exosomes as a product having the effect of enhancing viability and, by stimulating the hair follicles, enhancing hair growth in skin cells. The plant exosomes are used to revitalize and strengthen unhealthy skin and hair that have lost their vitality, to stop hair loss, to provide faster hair growth by stimulating hair follicles, and to provide a regulating effect in improving the effects such as wrinkles and age spots caused by aging skin cells. The plant exosomes are isolated from single, double, or triple combinations of plants selected from a group consisting of pineapple plant, garlic plant, and pomegranate plant. For example, a triple combination includes 1 ng-1 mg of the plant exosomes isolated from the pineapple plant, 1 ng-10 ?g of the plant exosomes isolated from the garlic plant, and 1 ng-1 mg of plant exosomes isolated from the pomegranate plant.
