Exhaust Plume Dispersal in Orbit

What happens to upper stage exhaust plume products
after, for example, a geosynchronous transfer orbit
burn from an initial parking orbit? Do the products
of combustion rapidly deorbit during subsequent
orbital perigees, or are they simply dispersed into
deep space by the solar wind?
Just wondering.
