Hardware facial mesotherapy is a popular procedure among modern fashionistas. It is the face that is the calling card of every person, especially a girl. Flawless skin evokes the envy of women and the interested glances of men. Ungroomed and sagging skin can add ten extra years to even a young lady. This cannot be allowed!

To make every meeting delight people, you need to constantly take care of your face. How to do this with the help of mesotherapy, what cocktails and devices are used in modern clinics, we will tell you in our article.

The essence of the technique

Electroporation is a variant of mesotherapy, carried out using special devices, without any injections. In this case, the needle is replaced by an electric current. The inventors of the method are Roderick MacKinnon and Peter Egre, who were awarded the Nobel Prize.

Electroporation is a kind of mesotherapy, but without needles

As you know, over time, the supply of substances necessary for cell life decreases, and they are not able to get to the cell for various reasons - the molecular weight of the substances is quite large, and the ion channels are not large enough.

Thanks to the research of these two scientists, the patterns of interactions between the cell and the environment became clear. The cell membrane selectively allows various substances to pass through, designed to ensure the functioning of the cell and protection from external influences.

Research by two scientists has revealed information about the interaction between cells and the environment around them

Microscopic currents “open” ion channels during the procedure. Special transport proteins located in these channels interact with the injected substances, moving them deeper into the skin.

Important ! At the end of the action, the channels close and the substances begin to “work.”

Current helps transport essential substances

Pros of the procedure.

Reaching the deep layers of the skin without injections - the painless influence of the current allows the penetration of active substances.
There is no need to recover for a long time - the results are noticeable immediately after the event, and the skin itself remains intact, without any changes.
There are no restrictions on the time of year - you can do electroporation even in summer.

This procedure has its advantages

The essence of hardware facial mesotherapy

With the help of mesotherapy, metabolic processes in the epidermis are improved and restored. Skin cells are exposed to negative external influences as a result of insufficient vitamin content. Hardware facial mesotherapy is a cosmetic procedure that, in one session, can replenish the lack of nutrients, as well as correct noticeable imperfections.

Women in Europe learned about this effective technique 20 years ago, while in Russia they began to use it only recently. At first, this rejuvenating technique of administering vitamins was not well received by our compatriots, as it had some unpleasant aspects: it was necessary to pierce the skin, and this led to bleeding and lengthy rehabilitation. In addition, the procedures turned out to be painful for most women, so mesotherapy was resorted to only in extreme cases.

Over time, the beauty service has undergone many improvements, as a result of which it has become painless and bloodless - thanks to the use of special technical means that do not damage the skin.

The principle of hardware mesotherapy is also based on the introduction of vitamin complexes into the skin, but using sonophoresis, and not the head, as in the case of conventional mesotherapy. Ultrasound is often effectively used to improve the passage of substances. For hardware mesotherapy, as well as for standard manipulations, specialists use a mesoinjector with a special head with spikes attached to its tip. To simplify and speed up the procedure, the devices are equipped with a manual and automatic mechanism. The exact dosage, depth and speed of drug administration is determined by a special program built into the equipment.

Using the traditional method of injecting drugs, it is possible to treat significantly smaller areas of the skin than using hardware mesotherapy.

What should you expect from the procedure?

The overall condition of the skin improves as a result of the procedure, as deep hydration of its tissues is achieved. Therefore, people suffering from excessive dry skin should pay special attention to this effect. But electroporation can achieve other effects:

facial skin is refreshed and smoothed;
facial wrinkles are smoothed out, deep wrinkles are also erased a little;
skin color becomes healthy;
skin turgor improves;
the problem of acne is solved;

Acne goes away thanks to this effect
pores narrow;
scars left after acne disappear;
the skin ceases to be flabby, becoming firm and elastic;
hair loss is corrected;

Hair grows better after electroporation
the skin returns to normal after procedures using injections;
the water balance of the skin reaches normal levels;
age spots disappear;
rosacea is eliminated.

Couperose can be eliminated with electric shock

This procedure will remove various toxins from the skin if you use the tripeptide glutathione.

Important ! To bring the skin texture back to normal and regulate the activity of the sebaceous glands, use glycolic acid.

Indications for the procedure

To keep your skin elastic and beautiful, you need to take care of it. Not only the area of skin that is visible to others needs care, but also the area that is hidden under clothing.

One of the effective methods that helps care for the skin is electroporation of the face, as well as other parts of the body. This is an excellent technique that rejuvenates the skin, removes fine wrinkles, and improves complexion.

Experts advise doing electroporation in certain situations.

INDICATIONS

the appearance of acne, acne marks;
pores expand greatly;
there is cellulite, sagging, noticeable pigmentation, the water balance of the epithelium is disturbed;
hair fall out;
the patient needs preparation for plastic surgery;
peeling, laser procedures have been carried out, and the skin needs restoration;
rosacea;
the need to remove small wrinkles and scars.

Electroporation of the face will help get rid of all these problems. The main thing is that a person contacts a good specialist.

Some nuances

Based on the fact that the procedure does not require injections, electroporation is a non-injection method of rejuvenation. It follows from this that the client will not suffer from swelling and bruises, infectious agents will not get under the skin, and it will not become inflamed. The impact does not cause any pain and does not require further rehabilitation.

You can carry out the procedure at home; you don’t need any special skills for this. Just discussing this possibility with a cosmetologist is enough.

Mandatory consultation with a specialist is required

The effect will be visible immediately after electroporation is completed. The optimal course includes about ten procedures, one per week. For lip skin, four procedures are enough to eliminate dryness and flaking. One exposure lasts half an hour.

Important ! Before manipulation, it is recommended to perform peeling using ultrasound. Modern equipment is usually produced with such an attachment.

Peeling before the procedure is required

Reviews from real people

Anna, 34 years old:

About 2 months ago the last electroporation procedure was completed. I had 8 of them in total. I liked the result, and I found a very good master. The sessions themselves are painless, even pleasant. I have always had dry lips. What I didn’t do, what creams, ointments and lipsticks I didn’t use. A friend recommended signing up for electroporation. Initially, I was skeptical about her proposal, but her impeccable appearance and a little information taken from the Internet convinced me. So, my lips acquired a natural shade and clear contours, became fuller, and no more dryness. I recommend.

Diana, 28 years old:

It was a good procedure that I enjoyed and had excellent results. Initially, they cleaned my face of makeup, did a light peeling of my lips, and then proceeded directly to electroporation. I liked the conversation with the cosmetologist. She told me in detail about the session, listed the contraindications and we signed an agreement. Immediately after the procedure, the skin of the lips became more moisturized, tightened, and acquired a beautiful shade. So far I have attended 5 sessions, and in order to consolidate the effect, it is recommended to visit a specialist approximately once every 3 months. I recommend, my rating is 5 out of 5.

Progress of electroporation

There are only three stages.

First, electroporation (or non-injection mesotherapy) is performed. Small portions of active elements, special compositions for mesotherapy, and large molecular compounds such as collagen and hyaluronate are locally injected into the middle layer of the skin.

This is now a frequently used method of introducing active agents transdermally into the deeper layers of the skin. The procedure is carried out using a special nozzle to which a bottle of the desired substance is attached. When the skin is treated, you can feel its saturation with useful substances due to the action of a special electric syringe without a needle.

The attachment also has a special function called “red light”, which provides additional therapy. The effect of light on the skin allows you to reach the deep layers of the skin, affecting their absorption of beneficial elements. Subcutaneous processes become more active, muscle tension increases.

Important ! Inflammation processes are also weakened, the effects of damage are corrected, and collagen is actively produced. Thanks to this, wrinkles and age spots disappear.

It is possible for a doctor to use “red light”

At the second stage, the skin is treated with ultrasound. It is advisable to carry out such a procedure in order to activate metabolism and improve the absorption of active elements by cells.

Since ultrasound affects metabolic processes, you can feel the following effects: tissues warm up, damage is eliminated, local skin inflammation is corrected. Elastin and collagen are actively produced, intracellular proteins are synthesized, and the immune system performs its functions better.

The second stage is ultrasonic treatment

Cold function . This is the final stage of electroporation, which allows you to get rid of redness and irritation of the skin, tone it, “seal” the introduced active substances and prevent them from being removed from the cells earlier than expected. Using the cold nozzle, you can carry out therapy thanks to the blue light option.

Important ! This function allows you to soothe and disinfect the skin. An excellent effect is achieved in the fight against acne, since light affects the bacteria that cause them. Free oxygen appears in the bacterial cell, injuring it and subsequently killing it.

Cold is the last stage

Electroporation of lips

Recently, electroporation has become a worthy competitor to another procedure aimed at lip augmentation - lip contouring.

Lip augmentation using electroporation is carried out by saturating the skin with hyaluronic acid using electrical impulses. This helps reverse the aging process of the lip skin and increase their volume without the use of injections. Positive results are visible after the first session.

Details about the lip electroporation procedure

The lip electroporation procedure takes about 30 minutes, including immediate preparation.

First, the cosmetologist performs a complete facial make-up removal.
Then the lips need a small peeling to remove dead skin particles that will interfere with the successful implementation of the procedure.
After this, a special meso-cocktail containing beneficial substances is applied to the lips.
And, directly, the procedure itself is exposure to an electroporation apparatus.

A small effect will be noticeable immediately. And every hour it will become more and more obvious.

We don't do electroporation! To enlarge your lips, we advise you to use a procedure that will give a longer-lasting and better-quality effect - lip contouring.

Electroporation technique

The skin is cleaned of impurities, after which it is recommended to perform peeling using ultrasound just before electroporation.

Option one: the specialist draws about ten milliliters of the required drug into a syringe and inserts it into the handpiece of the device for the procedure. The handpiece contains a microscopic mesh, which is supplied with current at a frequency specified by the program. The cosmetologist treats the required area of the body with a handpiece in strokes or in a circle without detaching from the skin. Over time, the strength of the current increases. In the case when a person notices tingling or vibration in the treated area, the current power no longer increases. During the procedure, pulses and vibrations of electric current are used. The pulses allow the drugs to penetrate deep into the cells, and the vibrations activate the necessary receptors, resulting in improved blood supply, tissue restoration, and cell activity.

Important ! For example, fibroblasts begin active collagen synthesis.

The drug can be drawn into a syringe

Option two: in this case, electroporation is carried out without a syringe. They take a capsule with the active substance, on top there is a rotating roller, which, due to its movements, delivers the desired drug or serum for the procedure.

The face is manipulated for half an hour, the neck and décolleté for about twenty minutes. It is necessary to carry out at least eight procedures, which are done every week. On average, up to twelve manipulations are recommended.

Important ! To maintain the effect, electroporation is carried out once every couple of months. Thanks to the action of the drugs, you can notice the improvement of the skin, while wrinkles are erased, and the skin itself thickens.

The procedure can be carried out using a roller on the capsule

Indications and contraindications for hardware mesotherapy of the face

If a woman has undergone an aggressive cosmetic procedure (for example, laser or chemical peeling) or plastic surgery, experts advise mesotherapy. In addition, this anti-aging effect is recommended when preparing for any cosmetic procedures.

We recommend

Laser aesthetic cosmetology: a perfect technique for an ideal appearance More details
The use of the method is allowed for any skin type and at any age. However, there are some contraindications to hardware effects. It is not allowed to perform non-injection facial mesotherapy if:

skin diseases (in the acute period) in problem areas;
renal failure and cholelithiasis;
blood diseases, symptoms of hemophilia;
infections, inflammatory processes, herpes in the active phase;
unhealed wounds, fresh scars;
individual intolerance to any ingredients included in the drug;
diabetes mellitus;
pregnancy and lactation;
the presence of neoplasms on the skin;
strong traces of hyperpigmentation in the treated areas.

Before performing hardware facial mesotherapy, the cosmetologist must make sure that this event will not harm the patient seeking help. To do this, the specialist conducts a thorough examination and determines all possible contraindications. It happens that a cosmetologist does not recommend mesotherapy.

What drugs are used?

It is impossible to imagine this manipulation without special drugs. It must be said that the usual creams, gels, and ointments are unsuitable for the procedure because they are too dense. And only water-soluble substances can reach deep areas of the skin.

Important ! A variety of means of influence are used. The cosmetologist chooses the appropriate one, based on the specific characteristics of his client’s body, the health of his skin, and the reasons why he decided to take this event in the first place.

Different means can be used

Sometimes they use products suitable for injections. However, in most cases, specialists choose the following active substances for electroporation.

Substance	Purpose
Hyaluronic acid	To moisturize, increase elasticity, smooth out small wrinkles.
DMAE complex	Designed to normalize the water balance of the skin. It becomes elastic and elastic, receives many useful elements. Since the skin receives all the necessary substances, its aging and fading are significantly slowed down.
Silicon of organic origin	It tones the skin and stimulates collagen production. Free radicals are removed from the body, which allows you to lose weight and get rid of cellulite. This substance is in many cases used to treat problem areas.
Glutathione Tripeptide	The name may not inspire confidence, but it is actually quite a useful element. The skin becomes healthy, harmful substances are eliminated naturally.

All products for electroporation are administered in combination with vitamins and natural ingredients that have a positive effect on the skin.

Preparations for hardware mesotherapy of the face

The procedure for non-injection mesotherapy includes two mandatory elements: the introduction of a meso-cocktail and hardware treatment of problem areas, which increases the ability of epidermal tissue membranes to pass beneficial substances through themselves.

The set of mesococktail components is selected individually for each patient depending on the existing problems. These vitamin serums are designed to solve various cosmetic problems, therefore they are divided into several varieties.

Allopathic therapy

An allopathic mesococktail is not complete without:

minerals;
vitamin complex;
glycolic, thioctic or pyruvic acids;
natural extracts of beneficial plants;
drugs such as dihydroergotamine or L-carnitine;
drugs manufactured using biotechnology.

Before preparing an individual allopathic serum, testing is carried out for the occurrence of an allergic reaction to a particular component.

Homeopathic mesotherapy

Homeopathic meso-cocktail consists only of components of plant origin and composite substances that are found in the structure of many tissues and organs. A mixture for homeopathic mesotherapy cannot contain anything other than extracts of medicinal plants.

Ready-made preparations for mesotherapy

When preparing ready-made mixtures, all indications are taken into account. Cocktails often include:

folic and hyaluronic acid;
complexes of vitamins and minerals;
coenzymes;
preparations with zinc and magnesium gluconate;
substances that have a bleaching effect.

Whatever the good composition, it has its own application characteristics, as well as individual indications and contraindications. Therefore, before starting a procedure using a meso-cocktail, you should definitely seek advice from a specialist.

Devices for manipulations

A variety of devices are used for this procedure.

Mesoderma. It was developed in Italy. It is used to administer a variety of drugs. The molecular weight and charge of the ion does not affect the operation of the device. Firm-.

Mesoderma
Infusion. Ideal for electroporation using hyaluronate. It is produced in Israel (). This is a fairly popular device in the field of beauty and rejuvenation. It is used in countries around the world. No preliminary preparation of the skin is required.

Infusion
META-TDS. Designed in Korea. Cosmetologists love this device for its long operating time and ease of use. It is rightfully considered the most effective in comparison with other devices. Purpose – rejuvenation and saturation of the skin with water.

META-TDS

The Italian Mesoderm apparatus has a special attachment for the procedure. To supply the skin with hyaluronate, use “Infusion”. If you need a complex of two procedures in the field of cosmetology (electroporation + radio frequency lifting), you can use the NV-CR-200 device. And the NV-E6 combine allows you to act on the skin in six different ways.

Important ! To carry out this procedure at home, purchase Gezaton devices.

Each device is good in its own way

Prices

The cost of electroporation consists of several components:

Solved problems.
Areas of the body being treated.
Injected drugs.
The type of device used.

For electroporation of the face you will have to pay from 2,500 rubles, and if you add the neck and décolleté area, the cost will increase to 4,500 rubles.

The procedure with the META-TDS device will cost 1900 rubles, and with the Meta-DUO device - 2200 rubles, since it has an additional function - radio frequency lifting.

You will find useful advice from a cosmetologist regarding electroporation in the video.

Pros of manipulation

Electroporation is a good analogue of youth injections, since it has many strengths:

the procedure does not cause pain;
the skin is not damaged: there is no swelling, redness, burns, blisters;
the procedure is easy to carry out and widely available;
no need to recover for a long time after exposure;
the results are encouraging.

The procedure has many advantages

Advantages of the method:

Deep cell skin therapy without injections - painless electrical pulses ensure 100% penetration of active drugs.
There is no recovery period - the effect of electroporation is visible immediately after the procedure, and there are no visible marks or irritations left on the skin.
There are no seasonal restrictions - the procedure has no contraindications even in the summer months.

How does electroporation work?

The electroporation procedure involves injecting drugs into the skin under the influence of a low-intensity pulsed current. Thus, the use of any syringes is excluded.

Thanks to the resulting electrical impulses, additional channels open on the surface of the skin. As a result, beneficial substances have the opportunity to bypass the epidermal barrier, since the permeability of the cell membrane increases 400 times! This is what facilitates the complete penetration of all necessary drugs. Reorientation of phospholipids leads to the formation of additional membrane tubules, the diameter of which is comparable to the diameter of low-molecular substances.

Combination with other procedures

Usually this procedure is carried out in combination with others, for example:

lymphatic drainage;
myostimulation;
laser therapy.

Electroporation is combined with many procedures

Together with the effect of laser therapy, electroporation rejuvenates the skin and stimulates collagen production. When the epidermis is regenerated, the skin is naturally rejuvenated and restored, as a result of which its overall condition improves.

Together with myostimulation, this procedure allows you to achieve soft tissue lifting that will last for a long time. In addition, you can saturate the skin with essential microelements and improve its condition.

And if you perform lymphatic drainage together with electroporation, you can forget about cellulite for a long time.

Depending on the problem, a suitable complex is selected

Main contraindications

Under some circumstances, “beauty sessions” are strictly contraindicated. In many ways, the prohibitions are related to the health status of the patients. These include:

During pregnancy and breastfeeding;
diseases affecting the cardiovascular system;
infectious diseases;
diabetes;
serious injury or damage;
mental disorders.

Contraindications include oncology, as well as a high probability of an epileptic seizure. Therefore, before carrying out such sessions, the client is obliged to inform the specialist about the presence of pathological processes. Otherwise, there is a high risk of serious complications and serious consequences.

Contraindications

This method, although considered quite safe, has contraindications:

dermatological diseases;
diseases of the nervous system;
metal implant, pacemaker;
oncology;
the presence of gold threads;
intolerance to one of the components;
blood clotting disorder;
elevated temperature;
viral diseases;
heart and vascular diseases;
pregnancy at any stage;
lactation.

If there are contraindications, the patient will be advised of other methods of solving problems.

The video provides more detailed information about the essence of the electroporation technique.

What is the price of the procedure?

All representatives of the fair sex want to look as good and young as possible. After reading this article, you are probably interested in this anti-aging effect on the skin. However, of course, the money question is also of interest. How much does electroporation cost?

Important ! In general, the procedure is quite inexpensive, which only increases its popularity. The price depends on the problem area that will be exposed.

The procedure is not too expensive

If you want to correct problems on your face, the price will be around six hundred rubles per session. Please note that the drug used is not included in the quoted price.

Often beauty centers offer discounts and promotions, so in many cases you can save money. The main thing is to follow the news of cosmetology clinics.

Important ! Electroporation is a kind of physical therapy. The procedure must be carried out by a highly qualified specialist with sufficient experience in this field.

Do not forget that you have the right to demand from the cosmetologist a document that allows him to carry out this procedure. Take your health seriously!

You need to make sure that the doctor is a specialist in his field

Drugs used

The peculiarity of the method is that only water-soluble substances can penetrate deep into the skin. Creams and ointments are excluded due to the density of their structure.

Specific medications are prescribed by a specialist after examining the patient. The following medications can be used during the procedure:

Hyaluronic acid.
DMAE complex.
Organic silicon.
Glutathione peptides.

Various drugs are used to solve related problems.

Hyaluric acid

In youth, hyaluric acid is produced in the human body in the required quantity. It plays an important role as the main component of biological lubricant.

Hyaluric acid is part of the epidermis and is involved in skin regeneration. This substance maintains normal water balance in human tissues.

In young years, the body itself actively produces hyaluric acid, due to which the skin is provided with natural hydration. Over time, the body ages and loses the ability to produce the necessary substances in the right quantities.

Reduction in water cells leads to the appearance of wrinkles, changes in facial contour, and sagging skin.

The use of moisturizing creams gives a short-term effect. A worthy alternative is electroporation, where 2% hyaluric acid is used as a drug.

It can be used on any area of the body, but the vast majority of hyaluric acid is used to lift facial skin. In this case, preparations containing sodium hyaluronate or zinc hyaluronate are used.

During a follow-up visit to the medical center, the individual need for a repeat procedure is determined, for example, after one or two months. Regular use of electroporation with hyaluric acid gives a lasting lifting effect:

slowing down skin aging;
oval alignment;
improvement of complexion;
elasticity and tightness of soft tissues.

This is achieved by improving the metabolic process and blood circulation in the tissues.

DMAE complex

Dimethylaminoethanol (abbreviated DMAE) is a drug often used in cosmetology. The DMAE complex has the following effects:

water retention in tissues;
increased muscle tone;
muscle tightening, delaying age-related sagging;
cleansing cells of substances that cause age spots.

The popularity of the drug is explained by its rapid action - the result becomes visible after the first procedure. The entire course consists of 3-6 sessions, which are held every six months.

The effect lasts for a long time. The use of mesotherapy with the DMAE complex will allow you to avoid plastic surgery to correct facial contours.

It has no age restrictions, other than reaching the age of majority.

Indications for electroporation with DMAE are:

decreased muscle tone in the face, neck, shoulders, hips;
the appearance of age spots;
cellulite;
stretch marks after childbirth or rapid weight loss;
traces of injuries, burns.

Organic origin guarantees safety during its use.

Organic silicon

Silicon performs a number of important tasks in the body. It is used in cosmetology due to its ability to restore the tone of the epidermis and accelerate collagen synthesis.

An important advantage of organic silicon is its ability to remove free radicals. The antioxidant property allows you to fight cellulite in any problem areas.

Even if the skin looks healthy on the outside, you can do electroporation with organic silicon for prevention.

Protecting your skin from free radicals will help preserve it. Silicon is used as one of the components of mesotherapy cocktails.

Glutathione peptides

Electroporation with glutathione peptides helps eliminate waste and toxins. The skin becomes healthier, the complexion normalizes, and stretch marks lighten. Glutathione peptides are included in many cosmetic cocktails.

How is this rejuvenation procedure different from others?

Mesotherapy is the effect of various drugs (both medicinal and therapeutic-cosmetic or cosmetic) on a pathological focus, so that the necessary part of the body can be treated in order to correct existing deficiencies. This is an invasive effect. And electroporation does not imply radical intervention and damage to the skin. Thanks to this, it is easy for people to endure the procedure, and there is no risk of introducing infectious agents. There is more variety in the products introduced here, therefore, the procedure can correct a large number of problems - both purely external and dermatological. If with classical mesotherapy no one can guarantee that beneficial substances will reach the cells, electroporation provides such an opportunity. In addition to the depth of penetration, you can also control the volume of substances supplied.

Electroporation is different from many other procedures

Important ! If we compare electroporation with electrophoresis, during the latter low-molecular substances are introduced. The procedure we are considering involves the use of high molecular weight agents, and the penetration of substances into the right places will occur more quickly.

Electroporation

In this case, needle-free mesotherapy is based on the method of transdermal transfer of active substances.
Thus, electroporation makes it possible to increase the permeability of membranes under the influence of high-intensity current pulses of a certain shape. It is based on the theory of electroporation, which assumes that a local restructuring of the structure occurs in a bilayer lipid membrane, leading to the appearance of a through water channel. There are two main possible pore configurations: hydrophilic and hydrophobic. In a hydrophobic pore, the pore walls are lined with lipid “tails,” and in a hydrophilic pore, they are lined with phospholipid heads. The electroporation method assumes that the transport of low molecular weight ionized substances through these channels is quantitatively higher than that during electrophoresis and ultraphonophoresis by 4-10 times. Pulses of up to hundreds of volts are applied within microseconds. Needle-free mesotherapy is safe, since the effect is very short-term and painless. The electroporation method implies that an electric field is created within the stratum corneum, which does not contain nerve endings. When combining the electroporation method with others, its effectiveness increases significantly. For example, mesotherapy without injections can be carried out using the following technologies:

Photos before and after

Photos before and after the course of electroporation procedures No. 1

Photos before and after the course of electroporation procedures No. 2

Photos before and after the course of electroporation procedures No. 3

How is facial electroporation performed?

A facial rejuvenation or correction session is carried out with a special electroporation device that generates a weak constant electric field. Current pulses create channels in cell membranes, which allows large molecules of hyaluronic acid to penetrate deep into the skin.

The procedure for electroporation of the face with hyaluronic acid consists of several stages:

Removing makeup from the face.
Application of skin toning products.
Application of meso-cocktail with hyaluronic acid.
Exposure to an electroporation apparatus.
A final soothing mask.

Reviews

People who have tried electroporation have varying opinions about the procedure. Some people like it, some don't. However, most clients still respond positively.

Maria, Rostov-on-Don

“Alas, I experienced all the “delights” of skin aging. My skin became slack and wrinkled. I didn’t like the reflection in the mirror at all, so I decided to deal with this problem. At first I took injections, but my body did not respond very well to them. In addition, it was very unpleasant for me, sometimes even painful, and I didn’t want to endure it anymore.

Once in cosmetology I was offered electroporation. After carefully reading the information about this procedure, I decided to carry it out because I really liked the before and after photos of the clients. I’ll say right away that the main advantage is the absence of pain. It is very important for me!

Already after the first procedure I noticed changes. The skin smoothed out and tightened. If you don't like injections either, be sure to try this procedure! I’m glad I found out about her at all!”

People respond positively to the procedure

Svetlana, Samara

“Aging, to be honest, really scares me. I regularly visit a cosmetologist and take good care of my skin, but I was worried about skin pigmentation and wrinkles. Alas, even strong creams are not able to globally solve such problems. We have to turn to cosmetological methods. I was advised to undergo electroporation because this method is effective, painless, and the cost of the procedure is not very expensive. For me all these points are very important.

After five sessions I can say that pigmentation has stopped bothering me. Wrinkles are no longer so noticeable, even the deepest ones. I am very pleased with this result! Of course, I had to spend money, but it's worth it. It’s better to do electroporation courses once a year and constantly enjoy your appearance than to spend money on tons of cosmetics, the effect of which is usually very weak.”

Elena, Kaliningrad

“I have been unhappy with my skin for five years. I used many products, but did not notice a good effect. That's why I decided to go into cosmetology. I thought I would have to endure the pain from the injections, but fortunately it turned out okay. I was advised electroporation. I did 12 procedures, I’m delighted with the results! The skin is almost like it was in youth, I forgot about wrinkles. I recommend it to anyone who is afraid of injections, but really wants to rejuvenate!”

Ekaterina, Vladimir

“I don’t yet suffer from visible signs of aging - probably because from an early age I have been using moisturizers and making all sorts of masks. I am well versed in a huge variety of different cosmetic procedures, and I also know what processes in the body provoke aging. Therefore, I believe that electroporation is the best method for getting rid of wrinkles, pigmentation and other skin problems. I decided to undergo several procedures to prevent age-related changes in the skin of the face, because sooner or later they will begin to appear. I want to delay this moment. Of course, I couldn’t notice any significant changes after the procedure, which is understandable, but overall the condition of my skin seems to have improved. This is good news. I think once every year or two you can undergo a course of electroporation - it will only be beneficial.”

Iontophoresis

In this case, the non-injection mesotherapy procedure uses a local electric field to deliver charged and electrically neutral molecules.
This method is widely used in physiotherapy. One of the main advantages of this type of non-injection mesotherapy is the ability to transfer large hydrophilic compounds and even macromolecules. In addition, active substances in the form of ions have increased medicinal activity, and minimal concentrations are required to achieve a therapeutic effect. Also, with iontophoresis, selective penetration of certain substances is possible by changing the polarity. A “skin depot” of the drug is formed precisely at the site of the lesion, without entering the bloodstream. But not all drugs can be delivered using iontophoresis; some, under the influence of electric current, change their pharmacological properties or form compounds harmful to health.

Non-injection mesotherapy has contraindications common to electrical procedures: neoplasms, febrile conditions, inflammatory processes in the acute stage. Also, iontophoresis is not recommended in the presence of chronic heart failure. Such procedures are not performed on pregnant women or people with a pacemaker. When performing procedures on the face, thyroid diseases, sinusitis or frontal sinusitis in the acute stage are excluded. Contraindications to iontophoresis include cysts and tumor diseases of the mammary glands and gold thread reinforcement.

Iontophoresis in cosmetology is effective due to the technology of exposure itself. The voltage during this procedure is less than 1V, and the current is about 1 milliampere; these effects do not cause pain, which is also an advantage. In addition, iontophoresis can be combined with chemical enhancers, which significantly increases the effectiveness of the procedure. Iontophoresis in cosmetology is of particular importance because it allows you to deliver the necessary substances directly to the tissue.

There is a whole direction, ionic cosmetology, where liposomal cosmetics are used, the active components of which are already in a highly ionized form. Ions penetrate through the excretory ducts of the sebaceous and sweat glands to a depth of 2-8 mm, accumulate in the skin and form a depot, and then are washed away by lymph, entering deep-lying tissues and the general bloodstream. Iontophoresis in cosmetology is used by many health and treatment institutions.

Advantages and disadvantages

In terms of lasting effect, electroporation is inferior to injection and plastic methods of lip augmentation. Many cosmetologists recommend the procedure as the main method to moisturize the skin, restoring its elasticity and freshness.

Electroporation of the lips with hyaluronic acid (the price depends on the type of device and the cosmetology clinic) cannot overdo it in terms of lip augmentation, therefore for patients who do not want to increase the volume too much, this method of exposure is the best option.

Physiotherapeutic treatment of the skin using weak electrical impulses allows you to:

Eliminate any painful sensations. In the case of electroporation, the patient may experience a slight tingling sensation without much discomfort. Only in some situations is it possible to develop allergic reactions and other unpleasant symptoms, but this feature is a physiological reaction of the body.
Preserving the natural integrity of the skin. With the help of physiotherapeutic effects, it is possible to achieve normalization of regenerative processes in the skin, therefore the procedure is most often used for restorative or healing purposes.
Availability. Unlike many other procedures, especially injections and plastic surgery, the cost of electroporation is quite low. In this case, several sessions are enough to achieve the effect.
No recovery. In the case of a physiotherapeutic procedure, the patient can do without a recovery period, as indicated by a minor invasive intervention.
Minimal number of contraindications. Electroporation avoids significant complications, which is possible due to the low number of various restrictions. However, other types of exposure with the same effectiveness cannot guarantee similar safety.
Low chance of allergies. Since hyaluronic acid can be synthesized using the internal parts of the body, it is not a foreign element. Therefore, although cases of allergic reactions occur, such symptoms are quite rare in practice.

In addition to the advantages described above, electroporation makes it possible to attend several sessions at once until the desired effect is achieved. If the patient wants to receive a small volume and initial hydration of the lips, 1-2 visits will be enough.

The procedure has practically no objective disadvantages. The main thing is to choose an experienced specialist and clinic, which will allow you to avoid a number of complications that are typical for any type of invasive intervention. An ineptly performed technique can cause harm even with such an easy physiotherapeutic method of influence.

Although lip augmentation using electroporation is quite safe, there is still a risk of injury to the skin. If all precautions and rules are followed, the safety of physiotherapy increases to 100%.

What effect to expect and how long will it last?

The average amount of time for which the result lasts is from 5 to 12 months, depending on the number of sessions and the desired effect.

The duration is influenced by many factors:

Age restrictions. The younger the patient, the longer the final result will last. Due to its biochemical characteristics, hyaluric acid enables elastin and collagen to perform their main functions - to increase the smoothness and elasticity of the skin. Since the body synthesizes internal fibers in people under 40 years of age, it is much easier to keep them in good condition. The production of beneficial compounds on mature skin slows down significantly, so you need to wait much longer for the desired effect.
Skin type. If the skin is aging and dry, electroporation will quickly saturate it with the necessary elements, which will also speed up the process of overall tissue regeneration. At the same time, the oily type allows you to maintain the moisturizing effect longer with a decrease in the number of physiotherapy sessions.
Lifestyle. If a large amount of alcohol is consumed or if the patient smokes or drinks insufficient water, the desired effect will last much less. In this case, it is better to resort to massage treatments or peeling, which will increase the duration of the effect. It is also recommended to give up bad habits and adhere to a healthy lifestyle, including proper dietary standards.

Result of electroporation of lips with hyaluronic acid
Due to its functional features in the form of point regulation of the skin, the effect of the procedure will be noticeable after 1-2 sessions. If the patient wants to get a more lasting result, electroporation should be repeated 8 to 10 times, depending on age, skin type and lifestyle.
