 Serum infusion face treatment by iontophoresis is a skincare procedure that uses a mild electrical current to deliver active ingredients deeper into the skin. 

For healthier, smoother and glowing skin, serum infusion is a skin-resurfacing treatment that exfoliates and infuses active ingredients to enhance the appearance of your skin.

What is Serum Infusion?

 Serum infusion treatments delivers skincare nutrients to your skin after a microdermabrasion procedure, sending nutrients deep into your skin for maximum penetration. Serum infusion promotes collagen synthesis, repairs damage from acne and hyperpigmentation, and rejuvenates for smoother and silkier skin.

Three step procedure

  • Exfoliation removes damaged and dead skin cells
  • Extraction cleanses deeply the surface and pores of the skin
  • Infusion delivers condition-specific serums deep into the skin

  1. Peptides (Polypeptides)
  • Peptide serum infusion uses collagen stimulation for anti-aging and rejuvenates your skin
  • Peptides are short chains of amino acids (proteins) needed by the skin
  1. Retinol ( form of vitamin A)

Retinol serum infusion may

  • Decrease acne breakouts and lines and wrinkles
  • Reverse UV damage and unclog the pores
  • Exfoliates your skin and increases the collagen production, giving a plump and fresher appearance to the skin
  1. Vitamin C

1. Preparation

  • Cleansing

The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.

  • Exfoliation

Sometimes, exfoliation is done to remove dead skin cells and enhance serum absorption.

2. Application of Serum

  • A specialized serum, tailored to the individual’s skin needs (e.g., for hydration, anti-aging, brightening), is applied to the face.

3. Iontophoresis

  • Device

               A device that generates a mild electrical current is used.

  • Process

 The device is moved over the skin, allowing the electrical current to push the serum’s active ingredients into the deeper layers of the skin.

4. Benefits

  • Enhanced Absorption

              The electrical current helps the serum penetrate more effectively compared to topical application alone.

  • Targeted Treatment

Depending on the serum used, it can target specific skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, and hydration.

  • Non-Invasive

 The procedure is generally non-invasive and painless.

5. Post procedure care

  • Moisturizing

 A good moisturizer is applied to seal in the serum and keep the skin hydrated.

  • Sun Protection

 Sunblock is essential to protect the treated skin from UV damage.

This treatment is popular in Derma and cosmetology clinics for its ability to deliver noticeable results without downtime.
