Dr. Akira Aoki, President of the Japanese Society of Aesthetic Internal Medicine, commented on ABEMA.
A warning against unscrupulous cosmetic surgery clinics offering exosome infusion treatments!
I am concerned that cosmetic medicine will be seen as dubious medical treatment due to the careless administration by some cosmetic surgeons who have almost no knowledge about exosome reagents. There are also some crazy cosmetic surgeons who boast about administering them to athletes.
Exosomes are attracting attention.
However, there are many beauty clinics that are misusing this name for business purposes and running fraudulent cosmetic medical businesses.
He appeared on YouTube to talk about his experiences with the effects of exosome infusions and presented his own selfish, evidence-ignoring logic.
Many cosmetic surgeons are engaging in shameless practices.
As a fellow cosmetic surgeon, I feel embarrassed.
Exosome infusions have not been tested in clinical trials, have not been standardized or confirmed for safety, and no protocols even exist, yet cosmetic surgeons, acting as cancer treatment specialists, are providing absurd information such as that they are effective against cancer and recommending expensive infusions.
Exosome infusion therapy, which is performed in cosmetic surgery clinics,
1: Zero evidence
2: Risky
3. Making money is the priority
4. Far from being effective against cancer or anti-aging, it may actually accelerate aging and even promote cancer.
5. The risk of death cannot be denied
At the moment, there are more harm than good.
The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has also issued a warning to sellers of exosome reagents.
You should never receive exosome infusions at a cosmetic surgery clinic.
Unscrupulous cosmetic surgeons who have no knowledge of exosome production or measurement methods, donors, or culture media are recommending intravenous infusions.
MiraDry, unapproved diet drugs, and the exosome business have become complete fraud tools for unscrupulous cosmetic surgeons.
It is a dark side that hampers cosmetic surgeons who practice honestly and corrodes cosmetic medicine.
