Is It A Safe Treatment?
Iontophoresis is generally considered to be a safe procedure. Iontophoresis also stimulates the local circulation and hence there may be a slight reddening of the skin after treatment, which should subside on its own after a few hours.
Who Is A Suitable Candidate For This Treatment?
Generally, Herb Iontophoresis is suitable for most people except for women who are pregnant or those with epilepsy history, heart conditions or are using pacemakers or have metal implants.
Patients should delay treatment if they have a recent wound, skin graft, or scar in the area requiring treatment, as iontophoresis may be painful and the treatment less effective.
