MCT Plasma & Exosomes

Available at Illuminate Skin Clinic in West Malling, Kent and Marylebone, London, MCT Plasma is ideal for patients who want to improve the quality, texture and tone of their skin using a treatment that is entirely natural, yet scientifically advanced.

What is MCT Plasma?

MCT Plasma stands for Meta Cell Technology Plasma. Like PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), it begins with a simple blood draw. But instead of injecting the platelets straight back into the skin, the PRP sample undergoes a unique light- and heat-based process using the MCT System. This enhances the release of growth factors and exosomes – powerful cellular messengers that encourage repair and regeneration in the skin.

The result is an autologous serum that delivers significantly more collagen-stimulating, anti-inflammatory and skin-repairing benefits than standard PRP, with less redness and downtime.

How does it work?

The MCT System uses targeted wavelengths of light and gentle thermal energy to stimulate the mitochondria within your platelets. Through different protocols, this leads to a sustained release of growth factors and a significant increase in the number of exosomes present in the plasma.

These elements work in harmony to:

• Activate fibroblasts and stimulate collagen and elastin production
• Accelerate tissue repair and skin cell renewal
• Calm inflammation and support healthy skin barrier function
• Improve microcirculation and overall skin resilience

Because MCT Plasma is created from your own blood, it is completely biocompatible and safe, without the risk of allergic reaction or overcorrection.

What can MCT Plasma treat?

MCT Plasma is a versatile treatment suitable for a wide range of concerns, including:

• Fine lines and early wrinkles
• Uneven skin texture or tone
• Loss of firmness or elasticity
• Dull or tired-looking skin
• Dark under-eye circles and crepey eye skin
• Enlarged pores
• Mild acne scarring
• Redness or post-inflammatory sensitivity

It can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, and is often recommended to support healing after other treatments such as microneedling, radiofrequency or laser.

Key benefits

• Natural yet clinically effective
• Stimulates collagen and elastin production
• Rich in exosomes for targeted skin repair
• Promotes hydration, firmness and radiance
• Calms inflammation and supports skin healing
• Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive or inflamed skin
• No synthetic additives – entirely derived from your own blood

Your treatment at Illuminate

Your journey begins with a consultation to assess your skin and determine whether MCT Plasma & Exosomes is suitable for you. If so, a small blood sample is taken, first placed into a centrifuge to create PRP, and then placed into the MCT System, where it is exposed to precise wavelengths of light and heat. This process takes just a few minutes and significantly enhances the regenerative capacity of the plasma.

Once ready, the plasma is usually injected into specific areas such as the under-eyes or cheeks. Occasionally it may be microneedled across the full face to target texture and tone

In some cases, both methods are used together for optimal results. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to keep the procedure comfortable.
