Electroporation Facials

Skin electroporation, also known as electroporation or electropermeabilization, is a technique used to enhance the permeability of cell membranes, particularly in the context of drug delivery or gene therapy. This method involves the application of short electrical pulses to cells or tissues, creating temporary pores in the cell membrane.

The cell membrane is normally a barrier that regulates the passage of ions and molecules in and out of the cell. Electroporation temporarily disrupts this barrier by creating transient nanopores in the cell membrane through the application of an electric field. These pores allow the entry of various substances, such as drugs, genetic material, or other therapeutic agents, into the cells more efficiently.

Goal

In the context of skin electroporation, the technique is applied to the skin to enhance the delivery of drugs or other substances through the skin barrier. This can be particularly useful in transdermal drug delivery, where the goal is to administer medications through the skin. By using electroporation, researchers and clinicians aim to increase the permeability of the skin to allow for better absorption of therapeutic agents. Cold therapy reduces tension by decreasing skin temperature. Hot therapy accelerates blood circulation to eliminate toxins.
