Your hair follicles are more than the structures that produce your hair. They are complex, living systems involved in growth, renewal and cellular communication.
Discover how emerging secretome technology uses biological signals derived from your own cells, and why understanding your hair and scalp health is an essential starting point.
Secretome is a personalized regenerative treatment made from your own stem cells, delivering the growth factors and repair signals your body naturally produces to support visibly healthier skin and fuller-looking hair.
Secretome is a first-to-market, cell-free treatment made from your own hair follicle stem cells. It contains a naturally balanced collection of over 5 billion exosomes, with growth factors, peptides, and cytokines, the molecules your body already uses for cell communication, tissue repair, and regeneration. Because it's made entirely from your own biology, it's designed to be well-tolerated, with no donor tissue or synthetic material involved.

Hair thinning, shedding and scalp concerns rarely tell the whole story. Genetics, hormones, nutrition, stress, health and everyday hair habits can all influence what we see.
The Hair Coach approach begins with observation, looking beyond the visible concern to understand the patterns and influences affecting hair and scalp health. By connecting the science with the individual, the focus shifts from simply choosing a treatment to understanding what may actually be needed.
Next-Gen Rejuvenation Powered By Your Stem Cells Your own biology, enhanced
The topical treatment is a cell free regenerative product created from a patient's preserved stem cells. It is designed to enhance skin rejuvenation, hair density, and scar reduction by harnessing natural healing potential.
A first-to-market autologous treatment for hair and skin rejuvenation, made from the patient's own hair follicle stem cells. ● Contains naturally balanced collection of 5+ billion exosomes, growth factors, peptides, and cytokines.
● Up to 34x higher levels of growth factors than PRP
Introducing secretome — your body’s “regeneration toolbox”. It is a collection of biologically active molecules secreted by stem cells, including growth factors, exosomes, collagen, and essential proteins that play a key role in cell communication, tissue repair, and regeneration.
Benefits
● From You, For You: Risk-free and perfectly compatible with your body.
● Enhanced Procedure Results & Reduced Downtime: a rich source of growth factors, exosomes, proteins, and matrix molecules for boosted procedure results and faster recovery.
● Predictable Results: Consistent, predictable results.
● Contains matrix molecules at levels up to 34x higher than those found in the patient’s own PRP.

Secretome therapy is a more advanced, comprehensive option compared to PRP or standalone exosomes.
PRP uses your own blood, and results can vary depending on your body’s natural growth factor levels. Exosome treatments focus on cell-to-cell signaling, but represent just one part of the regenerative process.
Secretome includes a full spectrum of regenerative components—including at least 5 billion exosomes, plus peptides, cytokines, and growth factors. It also delivers up to 34× more growth factors than PRP, providing a more consistent and potent treatment overall.
Acorn Secretome is designed to support faster recovery and improve overall skin and hair quality over time. Many patients return to baseline within a few days after treatment and report shorter downtime compared to previous procedures.
In the weeks following treatment, patients commonly notice improvements in skin texture, tone, firmness, and radiance, with visible results continuing to develop over time. By around 2–3 months, most patients report smoother, healthier-looking skin and high satisfaction with their results.
For hair, Secretome patients see improvements in hair thickness, density, and overall hair quality. Visible improvements are often observed within a few months, with continued benefits over time.
As with any regenerative treatment, results can vary. A qualified provider can help set expectations and tailor a treatment plan based on your individual goals.
Acorn Biolabs is a regenerative medicine company pioneering the use of a patient’s own stem cells to create personalized regenerative skin and hair treatments today and medical treatments in the future.
● Founded by Dr.Drew Taylor, PhD, MSc
● 8 years in operation
● Headquartered in Toronto and Los Angeles
● 100+ clinic partners across Canada and the United States
● Product offering:
○ Non-invasive stem cell collection and cryopreservation
○ First-to-market autologous skin and hair regeneration treatment derived from the patient’s own hair follicle stem cells
As we age, the body’s regenerative capacity slows down, and stem cells produce fewer of the essential molecules — growth factors, peptides, exosomes, elastin, collagen, and keratin — leading to thinning hair, loss of skin elasticity, uneven skin tone, and wrinkles.
Acorn has developed a proprietary technology that mimics the body’s natural regenerative process within a controlled lab environment.
By collecting and culturing stem cells, we create “a powerful regenerative reserve” of essential molecules at concentrations higher than your body naturally produces them today to support skin rejuvenation, hair regrowth, and future regenerative treatments.
● Delivers >85% of critical essential proteins, regardless of age
● Non-invasive and quick collection process
● Consistent and predictable results
● Hair follicle is an abundant, highly potent source of stem cells for both aesthetic regenerative treatments and future applications

You don't need to know what type of appointment you need before reaching out. That's part of what I'm here to help you determine.
Then I would show two primary services, not your entire service menu.
A complimentary conversation to discuss what's been happening, what you're concerned about and whether a comprehensive assessment is the right next step.
A deeper investigation into your hair and scalp concerns using history, observation, trichoscopy and the five areas of my Whole Hair Approach.
Available in person/on-location in the St. Albert area and virtually where appropriate.

Stem Cell Banking is a simple way to preserve your own cells today, so you have options for tomorrow.
Why Bank Your Cells Now
Your stem cells naturally produce fewer regenerative molecules as you age — banking preserves their current potential. Banked cells can be used for treatments such as Secretome, made entirely from your own biology, and position you to benefit as regenerative medicine advances.
1. Non-invasive collection
A trained technician plucks roughly 50 hair follicles. A simple appointment taking about 15–30 minutes.
2. Lab processing and cryopreservation
The collection is examined and then preserved at -320°F / -190°C at Acorn's facility.
3. Future access
Your cells will be safely preserved and ready to access for future cell-based treatments, including secretome.
Peace of mind
Your cells are secured today, at their current regenerative potential.
Full ownership
These are your own cells, you decide if and when to use them.
Derived from your own cells Autologous, so there's no risk of donor mismatch. Derived from your own cells, rather than donor cells.
Clean formulation
Cell-free, animal product-free, preservative-free.
Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
1) Booking a collection: You can book a collection directly with us.
2) Follicle Collection appointment: At your clinic appointment, a trained technician plucks 50 in-tact hair follicles. The appointment takes roughly 20 minutes and has minimal discomfort, similar to plucking eyebrow hairs. After the plucking is complete, the collection is prepared and shipped them to Acorn’s lab.
3) Setting up your Acorn account: After the collection appointment, you’ll be provided with instructions to set up your Acorn storage account.
4) Laboratory processing: Upon arrival at the Acorn lab, the collection is thoroughly examined and a report confirming the viability of your cells is emailed.
5) Cryopreservation: Using cryopreservation, we freeze your cells to a temperature of -196°C. This ensures that they stay healthy and viable for your lifetime and are ready for you to access when you need them.
Your cells will be safely preserved and ready to access for future cell-based treatments.
At Acorn, stem cells are noninvasively collected from your hair follicles, carefully processed, and stored at -190°C. At this temperature, cellular activity is effectively paused, helping protect your cells from aging and degradation — so they can be preserved for potential future use.
