What Is (plated)® Skin Science?
(plated)® is a physician-developed, at-home skincare line that uses platelet-derived exosomes to support the skin’s natural renewal process. Backed by 20+ years of research and 10+ peer-reviewed studies, it is the first and only brand to deliver this regenerative technology in a take-home formula — and it was recently named one of TIME’s Best Inventions.
The line includes five targeted serums — INTENSE, DAILY, CALM, HAIR, and EYE — each engineered for a specific concern, from deep wrinkles to post-procedure recovery to thinning hair.
What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes are cellular messengers. They carry the signals that tell your skin cells to repair, renew, and communicate. In plain terms — they are the body’s “master key” to healthy-looking skin.
Traditional active ingredients target one pathway at a time. A retinol accelerates cell turnover. A peptide signals collagen. Exosomes coordinate the whole cascade at once — which is why (plated)® patients often see fine lines, redness, and dullness improve on the same timeline.
How (plated)® Works for Your Skin
When you press a (plated)® serum into clean skin, the exosomes are absorbed and begin signaling your cells to do what they already know how to do — just more efficiently. Over 6–8 weeks of consistent use, most patients see measurable changes across tone, texture, and firmness.
Here is the short version of the mechanism:
- Apply first to clean skin or scalp. (plated)® is always the first step in your routine — it needs direct contact with the skin barrier.
- Exosomes deliver their signal. Each pump contains billions of exosomes carrying renewal cues that your skin’s existing cells can act on.
- Your skin rebuilds — on its own schedule. You do not force anything. You support what the skin is already designed to do.
This is what makes (plated)® different from acids or retinols — it is additive, not corrective.
What (plated)® Does for Your Skin
(plated)® delivers five clinically-observed outcomes:
- Supports the skin’s natural renewal process
- Reduces wrinkles, redness, and dark spots
- Improves tone, texture, and firmness
- Enhances skin’s glow and luminosity
- Cuts post-procedure downtime by up to 50%
Each benefit is documented in the peer-reviewed research behind the brand — not promised, demonstrated.

Where (plated)® Exosomes Come From
The provenance matters — and (plated)® is the only take-home exosome brand that can tell you exactly where its exosomes come from.
- Source: Platelets are sourced exclusively from FDA-regulated donation banks in the United States. Nothing is cultured from stem cells, animal tissue, or synthetic analogs.
- Process: Surplus transfusion-grade platelets are carefully processed to extract trillions of exosomes per bottle.
- Safety and stability: A multi-step purification process removes all DNA fragments — which is why (plated)® is both safe for every skin type and shelf-stable for at-home use.
This sourcing is why (plated)® can sit in the same routine as your prescription regenerative medicine protocols without conflict.
How to Use (plated)®
(plated)® is always the first step. Apply it to clean skin or scalp before any other product in your routine.
INTENSE or DAILY
Apply up to 2x daily (morning or night) to freshly cleansed skin. Follow with your moisturizer and SPF.
CALM — pre-procedure
Once daily for the 4 weeks leading up to a treatment. This primes the skin for faster recovery.
CALM — post-procedure
2–3 times daily, or as needed. Patients often see downtime cut nearly in half.
HAIR
One dropperful across the troubled areas of the scalp, daily. A little goes a long way — resist the urge to over-apply.
EYE
Up to 1 pump, patted gently 360° around the eye area, morning or night.
When Will You See Results?
Results build over time — faster for some serums, slower for others. Here is what to expect:
| Serum | Typical Results Timeline |
|---|---|
| INTENSE / DAILY | Optimal results in 6–8 weeks |
| EYE | Noticeable changes within 4 weeks |
| CALM | Discernible post-procedure recovery in a few days |
| HAIR | Visible results in 3–6 months |
Patients often describe (plated)® as their “worth-it” serum — the one they restock without hesitation.
Pair (plated)® with Your CosMedic LaserMD Treatments
(plated)® is a standalone skincare line, and it is also an accelerator for the in-office work we do at CosMedic LaserMD.
Pair CALM with microneedling to cut downtime and enhance collagen response. Pair INTENSE with chemical peels to accelerate post-peel recovery and amplify results. Pair HAIR with PRP for hair loss for patients who want take-home maintenance between in-office sessions.
If you are planning a laser or regenerative medicine protocol, a 4-week CALM pre-treatment window can meaningfully improve your results. Dr. Macha can build (plated)® into your custom treatment plan during your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is (plated)® Skin Science?
(plated)® is a take-home skincare system powered by platelet-derived exosomes. It is the first and only brand to deliver this regenerative technology in an at-home serum — developed by physicians in regenerative medicine and backed by 20+ years of research.
What are exosomes, and why are they in my skincare?
Exosomes are cellular messengers that signal your skin to repair and renew itself. They are the body’s “master key” — unlocking the natural processes that smooth wrinkles, even tone, and restore firmness. They sit alongside vitamin C and sunscreen as emerging non-negotiables in modern skincare.
Is (plated)® safe for all skin types?
Yes. (plated)® is gentle and effective for every skin type, including sensitive and post-procedure skin. The multi-step purification process removes all DNA fragments — which is why the formula is both safe and stable at room temperature.
Does (plated)® cause sun sensitivity?
No. Unlike exfoliating acids or retinols — which can leave skin more vulnerable to UV damage — (plated)® supports your skin’s natural repair mechanisms without increasing sun sensitivity. You still need daily SPF, but (plated)® will not work against it.
How long before I see results?
Timelines vary by serum. INTENSE and DAILY show optimal results in 6–8 weeks. EYE shows noticeable results within 4 weeks. HAIR takes 3–6 months of consistent use. CALM delivers discernible post-procedure recovery in just a few days.
Can I use (plated)® before or after a microneedling or PRP treatment?
Yes — that is exactly what CALM is built for. Pre-treatment use for 4 weeks prepares your skin; post-treatment use 2–3 times daily cuts downtime by up to 50% and enhances recovery. Dr. Macha can build (plated)® into your custom treatment plan.
How is (plated)® different from growth-factor or retinol serums?
Growth-factor serums use proteins. Retinols are vitamin-A derivatives that accelerate cell turnover. (plated)® uses exosomes — cellular messengers that coordinate the entire repair cascade, not just one signal. This is why a single serum can address wrinkles, redness, and dark spots simultaneously, without retinol-style downtime.
How much does (plated)® cost?
Pricing by serum: INTENSE $258, DAILY $258, HAIR $379, EYE $138. CALM pricing varies — ask your provider during your consultation. Patients often pair two or three serums into a targeted routine.
