Revitalize Your Skin Now with Vitamin C Iontophoresis

If you’re looking for a way to revitalize your skin without resorting to needles or other invasive procedures, let the professionals at Metro Dermatology use Vitamin C iontophoresis to improve your skin’s health. This non-invasive procedure has shown clear scientific benefits to patients with skin conditions, and it’s available now.
Why Vitamin C?
Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, allows your body to produce collagen, the protein that keeps your skin strong and allows it to constantly renew. Over time, skin cells die out or become damaged. Even if you don’t see any obvious signs of damage, every time you wash your skin or scratch an itch, you’re losing more tiny flakes. Losing skin is entirely natural and healthy. However, this constant loss means that each day your body needs vitamin C as the building block to replace dead skin with new, healthy skin. Vitamin C gives your body a natural way to produce collagen on its own.
How Can You Get More Vitamin C?
You may have the recommended daily requirement of vitamin C, but even if you take supplements, your digestive system will destroy at least some of the chemicals before they ever make it into your circulatory system and from there to your skin. That’s why, over time, you will notice that your skin ages – looks visibly older – over time, no matter what you do. Similarly to dietary supplements, creams may or may not be absorbed into your skin at adequate levels. There’s really only one way to make sure that the vitamin C will penetrate the skin – and that’s to do so manually by gentle electric current.
Why Vitamin C Iontophoresis?
Traditionally, patients looking to have more vitamin C in their skin would use very fine needles to inject vitamin C without damaging the skin. If you’re not a fan of needles or invasive procedures, you’ll be glad to know that recent scientific developments now offer an alternate means: vitamin C iontophoresis. Iontophoresis means using electric currents instead of needles to move vitamin C through the upper layer of skin to the part of your body constantly making fresh skin. This procedure allows you to get the vitamin C exactly where you need it most, without needles and with minimal recovery time afterward.
