Beyond Botox: Placenta Power, Exosomes, and the Future of Regenerative Beauty

The idea that the body can help rebuild and repair itself still feels futuristic to many people, yet regenerative medicine has been quietly evolving for decades.

Recorded live at Biohackers World Los Angeles, holistic nutritionist Shaina Simhaee speaks with Dr. Bruce Werber, CEO and Founder of BioXtek, surgeon, educator, and pioneer in regenerative medicine with more than 30,000 procedures and over two decades dedicated to advancing healing therapies. Driven by years of treating trauma and diabetic wounds, Dr. Werber shares how the search to prevent amputations and improve patient outcomes led him toward placental tissue research and biologic therapies.

Key topics from this session:

• Dr. Werber’s transition from surgery into regenerative medicine
• how placental tissue first sparked his research journey
• the historical use of placental therapies dating back to the early 1900s
• the role of placental tissue, stem cells, exosomes, and biologic signaling
• how regenerative medicine supports the body’s natural repair systems
• the difference between healing wounds, orthopedic injuries, and neurological conditions
• why patient outcomes depend on addressing the whole system, including metabolism and nutrition
• the relationship between exosomes, collagen production, and skin rejuvenation
• how microneedling and regenerative approaches may support skin and hair health
• Dr. Werber’s vision for the future of FDA-approved biologic therapies and large-scale patient research

Throughout the conversation, Dr. Werber returns to a powerful idea that shaped his career: medicine becomes deeply meaningful when it gives people options that once seemed impossible. His perspective brings curiosity and optimism to a field that continues to expand the way we think about healing.
