Electrophoresis (or iontophoresis) is a method of introducing various medicinal, cosmetic or cosmeceutical preparations using electric current. The combined effect of galvanic current and the drug being introduced (today about 200 water-soluble agents are used) leads to an increase in the therapeutic effect of the procedure.

Medicinal and cosmetic preparations for electrophoresis are polarized, they are an electrolyte solution in which ions form charged hydrophilic complexes. The passage of electric current through such a solution causes ions to move to opposite poles. Penetrating the epidermis and upper layers of the dermis, ions of the introduced substance accumulate, creating a skin depot, from where they enter the blood and lymphatic vessels. The period of elimination of substances from the skin depot is from 3 to 20 days. Local accumulation of medicinal and cosmetic preparations allows them to create significant concentrations in the area of ​​​​effect.
