Treatments tested in this trial
5 billion exosomes and saline solution microneedling
Combination productParticipants will receive 5 billion WJMSC-exosome topical application on one half of the treatment area and an equivalent volume of saline solution on the contralateral half of the treatment area. Microneedling at a depth of .5mm on the entire treatment area will immediately follow the exosome and saline application. Participants will also receive 4 permanent microdot tattoos on the aforementioned locations.
50 billion exosomes and saline solution microneedling
