If exaggeration is meant in the sense of Amplificatio, then there is actually a difference to hyperbola.

Both are types of exaggeration. The difference is that hyperbola exaggerates the thing itself (usually in a way that you can consider as funny), while the amplificatio remains realistic, but for that it is exaggerated in its description of one thing.

It’s very well explained here: https://www.schreib.net/artikel/hyperbel-uebertfri- Exemplare-5578/
