Iontophoresis
Iontophoresis is a treatment to deeply penetrate molecules of substances into the skin that ordinarily cannot permeate or be absorbed into the skin, such as vitamin C, vitamin A, and Tranexamic acid, by ionizing the molecules with electric currents. Iontophoresis can penetrate active ingredients like vitamin C, A and Tranexamic acid 30 to 100 times deeper into the skin, so it can diminish pigmentation and wrinkles and regain hydration. To deliver more active ingredients, we will remove the keratins with a peeling before the iontophoresis, and complete the procedure by applying the nourishing and moisturizing oxygen mask. At Naturopathy Spa & Wellness, we have the highly concentrated vitamin C and Tranexamic acid serums specially ordered from Japan to solve any skin concerns.
Tranexamic acid is not very common in the United States yet, but it’s highly effective in improving “Melasma”, a type of pigmentation caused by hormonal imbalances and several other factors. Tranexamic acid repairs the denatured collagen and elastin, and prevent deep wrinkles.

FAQ
A. | Vitamin C helps regenerate collagen and regulates melanin production. By penetrating vitamin C with the Iontophoresis process, it helps regulate excessive sebum production and breaks down active oxygen. This will calm the redness on the skin or acne and tighten the pores. |
A. | Vitamin A is an essential nutrient in your skin that makes your skin firm and radiant, maintains elasticity, and slows down skin aging. It treats wrinkles by promoting hyaluronic acid production and increase the hydration level of the skin. |
A. | 80% of the cause of skin aging comes from skin exposure to UV light. If you expose your skin to the sun all day, 90% of the vitamin A in the skin will be destroyed, leading to skin aging. In order to restore vitamin A to the normal level, some suggest staying in a dark room for a whole week. Rather than sequestering yourself for a whole week, vitamin iontophoresis can immediately improve the dryness and elasticity of the skin. |
A. | When your skin lacks nutrients, there could be some occasional reaction like redness if too high a dose of vitamin A is penetrated into the skin. To prevent such a reaction, we gradually increase the amount of vitamin A penetrated. |
A. | Stimulants like female hormones and UV light activate melanocyte, a cell which creates melanin pigment and causes age spots. Tranexamic acid blocks the activation of melanocyte and prevents melanin production. It also repairs collagen and elastin and prevents the cause of deep wrinkles. |
