What the research examined
A systematic review surveyed studies of exosomes and peptides in skin-related research. The included preparations, experimental designs, and endpoints varied. The review is useful for locating the underlying literature, but exosomes, growth factors, and short peptides represent different biological materials.
How to interpret the findings
Heterogeneous studies do not establish a class-wide effect. Formulation, comparator, sample size, and whether an outcome was objectively measured are central to assessing each publication.
