“What is iontophoresis?”
Iontophoresis is a method that creates a weak electric current circuit in the skin and places active ingredients on the current circuit to deliver a large amount of concentrated skin-beautifying active ingredients deep into the skin.Iontophoresis is said to have 30 times more penetration power than when applied to the skin.

What is ultrasound introduction?
Ultrasonic application is a method of applying ultrasonic vibrations to the skin at a rate of 1 million times per second, causing a hollowing phenomenon in the skin and allowing the skin-beautifying ingredients to penetrate deep into the skin.
Iontophoresis and ultrasound introduction
