Sonophoresis uses ultrasonic waves to 'disrupts' the skin layers and open up microscopic cavities on our skin. This increases the permeability of the skin and enhances its absorption of vitamins and other nutrients. Vitamin C has antioxidant, anti-pigmentation and antiaging effects. Maximum absorption of the vitamin C and other nutrients results in clear, bright and fair skin.

Vitamin C has also come into the limelight because of its ability to reduce pigmentation, accelerate collagen formation and improve skin elasticity. Since Vitamin C is generally extremely sensitive to light, their daily replacement is an essential for healthy skin. Vitamin C sonophoresis enhances the absorption of this unstable compound, increasing penetration of nutrients by as much as 4000% (when compared to topical application) improving skin tone, skin texture and reducing facial pigmentation.

Vitamin C sonophoresis is ideal for women with premature aging skin, sun damaged skin, uneven skin tone, skin with pigmentation or women who generally want brighter and fairer skin. Its skin lightening properties combined with skin rejuvenating properties can improve skin tone, whiten skin as well as improve wrinkles.

The actual treatment is usually done in about 20 minutes with minimal discomfort. A concentrated Vitamin C serum is applied on your face. A flat spatula emitting high-speed, low-frequency ultrasound vibrations is used to massage you skin and aid in the absorption of the Vit C serum. There may be a warm sensation but generally, the procedure is comfortable and relaxing. There is no "down-time" and you are able to immediately return to work.

The treatment is best performed after a gentle Ultrasonic Exfoliation and Cleansing to ensure maximum absorption and efficacy of the Vitamin C treatment. At the end of the Vitamin C Sonophoresis, we will apply a moisture surge face mask which will both sooth and seal in the nutrients.

Most patients see results immediately after their first treatment. The result is radiant, glowing and tighter skin with a decrease in fine lines.

For optimum benefits, we recommend that the initial Vitamin C sonophoresis treatment be performed 2 weekly for 2 months. Subsequently, maintenance treatment can be performed monthly to keep your complexion fair and glowing.
