Electroporation Treatment For Skin

Electroporation treatment for skin is a non-invasive way of administering solution to tissues below the skin to deep dermis. Electroporation skin treatment, like the name suggests, basically uses electrical pulses of energy in order to create temporary pores in cell membranes

As a result, chemicals, drugs, or other solutions can then be introduced into the cells.  Furthermore, the electrical waves that pass through the skin will cause a vibration of the local soft tissues.

In fact, this vibration can cause deep heating in the local area. However, the patient usually feels no heat sensation.  Lastly, electroporation also benefits by increasing the local blood flow. Dermatologists use Electroporation treatment for skin conditions such as Melasma.
