PRP has been the default in-house regenerative option for years — it's familiar, it's autologous, and most practices already own a centrifuge. But more clinics building cash-pay regenerative service lines are evaluating standardized exosome products alongside it. Here's a practical, sourcing-focused look at the differences. For licensed professional use only.
The core difference: variability vs. standardization
PRP is prepared per-patient, so its composition varies with the patient's blood, the draw, and the spin protocol. A manufactured exosome product (e.g. 3DEXO-60B) ships with a Certificate of Analysis describing a defined, lot-consistent product. For a practice, that's the difference between a result you can reproduce and one you hope for.
Practical sourcing considerations
- Consistency: standardized, COA-backed product vs. per-patient preparation.
- Chair time: no draw or spin step; manufactured product is ready to incorporate into existing protocols.
- Documentation: lot-level specs you can file and show.
- Storage & handling: confirm cold-chain and shelf-stability requirements with your supplier.
This isn't either/or
Plenty of practices offer both and let the provider choose per case. The point isn't to abandon what works — it's to understand what a standardized, documented exosome product adds to your menu and your margin. (We supply exosomes and biologics; we don't sell PRP kits.)
What to vet in an exosome supplier
- cGMP manufacturing and a per-lot COA.
- AATB-aligned sourcing and a clear chain of custody.
- Direct wholesale pricing with no forced minimum to start.
