Kaiseraugst, Switzerland. April, 10 2026
Inspired by regenerative medicine and longevity science, plant-derived exosomes are set to spark a revolution in skincare – from beauty clinics to daily routine. Plant-derived exosomes are nature’s quintessence, microscopic delivery systems used by plant cells to exchange essential nutrients and genetic instructions - just as they do in skin.
dsm-firmenich’s EXOVIVE™ LIFT is an extracellular synergy system harnessing the power of Alpine Apple, Mediterranean Tangerine and Sicilian Papaya from Italian biodiversity to rejuvenate the skin from within. It’s carefully selected from organic natural sources, isolated and preserved at full potency through a highly sustainable proprietary extraction technology.
“By entering this new market, dsm-firmenich reaffirms its commitment to raising the bar for scientific innovation and product performance in skincare” said Hendrik Reuter, VP Global R&D & Innovation Beauty & Care at dsm-firmenich. “Our research sets new benchmarks for efficacy, substantiated by outstanding clinical and mechanistic evidence. In a 2 months placebo controlled clinical study, conducted on 45 healthy subjects per group, EXOVIVE™ LIFT demonstrated a remarkable +30% improvement in skin elasticity and achieved wrinkle reversal equivalent to 8 years of aging, outperforming conventional botanical extracts.
Furthermore, for the first time in the industry, we provide breakthrough visualization of the vesicles entering fibroblasts cells and migrating towards nucleus, proof of concept for such proposition “.
EXOVIVE™ LIFT Nature’s cellular code for skin regeneration.
