“…In 2014, Paludo et al examined the electrochemical behaviour and in vitro diffusion of α‐tocopherol associated with iontophoresis. The results showed a reduction in peak current at 0.78 V of α‐tocopherol molecules when subjected to iontophoresis, increasing the diffusion and degradation of the system [66]. In brief, in the presence of α‐tocopherol there was an increase in the anodic current due to its oxidation.…”

Objective: Iontophoresis is defined as the use of electric current to drive molecules across cell membranes through an electrolyte solution. In therapeutic context, it is used to facilitate the administration of bioactive substances, either systemically or locally. The technique presents various advantages and that is why it has been successfully used by a plethora of medical sciences. The constantly developing field of dermato-cosmetic science has also taken advantage of the possibilities offered by iontophoresis, aiming to enhance the delivery of the applied active ingredients and, thus, induce the desired cosmetic effects. Methods:The available literature was examined for evidence-based reports of safe and successful iontophoresis of pharmaceutical and cosmetic substances, in order to explore different iontophoretic applications in the field of dermatocosmetic and dermato-aesthetic sciences. Conclusion:Iontophoresis can be safely and successfully used in the treatment of ageing, photoageing, hyperpigmentation, oxidative stress, hair loss, hair removal, acne, acne sequelae and cellulite, providing many possibilities for enhanced treatment results.
