Electroporation with summecosmetics

Our secret weapon

With summecosmetics, the sensational cosmetic technique, with mesolab, a new era in beauty treatments has dawned.

The human skin is considerably different from the membranes of individual cells.  The biggest skin barrier is the stratum corneum. It is mechanically very stable and has an extremely high resistance to electricity, thus forming an excellent barrier for water soluble molecules. If the stratum corneum is exposed to electricity, then a rapid reduction to its resistance occurs at approximately 60 volts, and the skin becomes permeable to electricity. This process forms small aqueous channels in the stratum corneum which allow the transfer of substances through the skin.

During electroporation we carefully transfer an array of active ingredients specifically selected for each customer into the customer's skin. The membrane is destabilized using an electric field which uses electrostatic forces to gently transfer aqueous solutions into the membrane.

The Mesolab is a non-invasive method of treatment. Through the combination of electroporation and phototherapy, substances can be transported through the skin in a painless, non-invasive (as opposed to mesotherapy) way and with no side effects.

Electroporation consists of the application of brief voltage impulses on the cells and tissues. These special electric impulses act on the cell membranes, specifically on the lipid intercellular spaces, causing molecular changes which bring about the formation of ultramicropores and in turn increasing the permeability of the skin, particularly on the stratum corneum.

We recommend a total of 10 treatments once or twice a week.
