mini galvanic Remarkable Effect
New iontophoresis treatment device Galvanic and provitamin C penetration:
The high effectiveness of iontophoresis in treatment is demonstrated due to the establishment of new functions.
A) Sufficient amount of vitamin C should be supplied to the basal layer of epidermis to suppress abnormal increase in melanin that causes pigmentation such as chloasma, freckle, and transient pigmentation (after laser irradiation) and to decolorize already-existing melanin.
B) Wrinkle
It is required to hydrate proline/lycine residue in alpha-chains to form triple helix by the polymerization of 3 pieces of preprocollagen alpha-chains regarding dermis fibroblast. It is significant to supply vitamin C intentionally as an essential cofactor to make propyl-4-hydroxylase function as a main enzyme to catalyze
the reaction above because vitamin C is apt to be depleted partially.
C) Elimination of active oxygen
The elimination of active oxygen by intracellular vitamin C can prevent deep-penetrating UVA-wave from causing nuclear DNA double-strand breaks and damage to DNA base components such as 8-OHdG.
D) Prevention of skin aging
Provitamin C can be, in the DNA level, an age resistor that significantly extends cell life by preventing telomere DNA located at both ends of chromosomes from shortening.
E) Hyperoxidation of sebum such as squalene and ceramide has a deleterious effect on skin. Provitamin C prevents cell death caused by lipoperoxide.
Note: Our new device can minimum pore-clogging grime after washing your face by use of negative polarity before iontophoresis. At that time, purified water can be used but skin toner is more effective.
