Vitamin C Iontophoresis Cost in Korea

Vitamin C Iontophoresis is a gentle and non-invasive skin brightening treatment widely used in Korea to infuse high-concentration Vitamin C deep into the dermis using mild electrical currents. This technique enhances skin tone, reduces hyperpigmentation, and promotes collagen production. Korean dermatology clinics often combine iontophoresis with laser treatments or facials for boosted results, offering patients a refreshed, glowing complexion with minimal to no downtime.
