What is Vitamin C Iontophoresis?

Almost everyone who regularly uses skincare knows that supplementing Vitamin C is essential in the process of skin care and nourishment. So what is Vitamin C?

Vitamin C is one of the vitamins that plays an essential role in the body, has the effect of protecting the skin to the maximum, and strongly supports the skin care process. It has the ability to increase the skin’s antibodies, while creating a foundation combined with sunscreen to best protect the skin from sunlight.

Vitamin C iontophoresis is an electrophoresis technique that helps the molecular ions of Vitamin C penetrate deep into the epidermis of the skin. This is a method highly appreciated by dermatologists in whitening the skin and effectively treating pitted scars. In particular, this method also helps promote the regeneration of new cells to help restore the skin after negative environmental impacts such as sunburn, melasma, freckles, acne scars, etc.

Vitamin C iontophoresis is a catalyst in enhancing natural collagen under the skin, filling in pitted scars, preventing the formation of melanin pigments, removing dark spots, freckles, … helping the skin stay youthful and preventing the aging process. In addition, this method will help shrink pores, thereby limiting sebum secretion and effectively reducing acne. Thus, this is an extremely effective method for skin that is damaged due to puberty, aging or other factors. Specifically, this iontophoresis method will have the following uses:
