electroporation
electroporation
Electroporation is called non-injection mesotherapy. The technique gives the same effect, but does not require painful and traumatic injections. The delivery of vitamins, amino acids, collagen and other substances useful for the skin is carried out under the action of electrical impulses. They open ion channels (micropores) for deep penetration of micro- and macromolecules into the epidermis and dermis.
The effects of electroporation are determined by the active ingredients that are applied to the face before being treated with electrical impulses. The procedure improves the color and evens out the relief of the skin, improves its tone and elasticity, and helps in the treatment of dermatological diseases.
