GET GLOWING! THE IONZYME® DF MACHINE DELIVERS SUPERIOR RESULTS, FAST!
By Dr. Des Fernanades
The IONZYME® DF MACHINE is a patent pending machine which introduces the use of intensified Iontophoresis and active Sonophoresis. The sound waves from the Sonophoresis are the same as the sound made by dolphins, which produces better penetration through the skin than conventional Ultrasound. As a result the special Environ treatment serums and gels are able to penetrate even deeper into the skin and are, therefore, more active and provide much quicker, more effective results.
The IONZYME® DF MACHINE has been specifically designed for Environ® skin care treatments and becomes the first machine available with this potency. The machine provides facial treatments which are at the very forefront of scientific skin care.
Specific Environ® products used in these treatments contain the optimum strengths of vitamin A and C plus additional growth factors. This creative system enhances the penetration of these products through the skin providing far greater penetration of the active vitamins (ingredients) and essential factors into the skin.
The technique offered through this machine is crucial because skin has a natural, waterproof barrier which hinders the penetration of chemicals. The IONZYME® DF MACHINE manages to overcome this resistance with two tried and tested methods:
- Iontophoresis – involves the use of an electrical current to facilitate greater penetration of vitamins into the skin.
- Sonophoresis – involves the use of sound waves to transport vitamin molecules through the skin.
Iontophoresis is used for relatively large surface areas such as the face and neck, whereas Sonophoresis is used on limited areas such as the upper lip and the concentration of character lines around the eyes, on scar tissue, and on pigmentation marks. Both methods can be combined, where necessary, for intensive treatments.
While there are already machines available which can supply both galvanic currents and ultrasound, the ultrasound in those machines is done at high energy (1.1MHz) sound and, therefore, does not use the same special electro-magnetic (sound) wave properties. The sound used in the DF machine is at the limit of the range of hearing and is not dangerous, whereas the ultrasound waves can be.
The IONZYME® DF MACHINE offers:
- Simple Iontophoresis with continuous or intermittent current up to a maximum of 2.0mA.
- The Iontophoresis uses a pulsed wave pattern which is part of the patent.
- Using a pulsed current dramatically minimizes the potential for electric burn.
- Extremely comfortable Iontophoresis ensuring that the client is barely aware that such a powerful modality is being used.
- The most efficient form of Iontophoresis.
- Whole-field Iontophoresis is done in preference to the tiresome use of rollers.
- Sonophoresis only.
- Iontophoresis for large areas in addition to Sonophoresis for small areas. Combined Iontophoresis and Sonophoresis through one probe for small areas providing the most intensive treatment.
- Constant frequency of sound (cannot be altered).
- Far greater penetration of vitamins into the skin.
- Easy and comfortable to use.
- Rapid client satisfaction and visible results.
