Galvanic Therapy

What is Galvanic Therapy?

According to Zoe D. Draelos, MD and research dermatologist, the theory behind the galvanic therapy is grounded on the belief that the skin can be enhanced by stimulating it with the manipulation of electric channels. The galvanic treatment is painless and is done with a handheld device that induces low voltage DC current into the skin. Prior to this, conductive treatment gel is applied first before using the device. The treatment usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
