In contrast to other parts of the body, excessive sweating in the face cannot be concealed. The resulting stress only exacerbates the already elevated sweat production. Very frequently, sweat appears in the so-called T-zone (forehead, nose, upper lip, and chin).
The application of tap water Iontophoresis to the face is more challenging than the application to hands, feet and underarms. The surface of the face is very curved so that the usual flat electrode systems are little or not at all suitable.
Thanks to its anatomical design, the Saalio® face electrode facilitates the extended application of tap water Iontophoresis in the facial region. The pre-shaped electrode made of soft fleece adjusts extensively and, most of all, almost effortlessly to the contour of the face. The mask completely covers the particularly critical T-zone, including the nose. Moreover, compared to a wet cloth, the multi-layer construction ensures higher flexibility and pliability of the water-soaked mask.
An unique characteristic of the Saalio® face electrode is the generous addition of graphite fibers to the mask. This ensures that electricity is evenly introduced over the entire surface of the face, thus avoiding local current spikes. Just like the fleece, the graphite fibers are very flexible and support the softness and pliability of the face electrode.
While the face mask represents one electrical contact surface with the unit, primarily hands or feet (tray) are required as second contact surface so that electricity can flow through the body. In principle, this configuration resembles the application for the combined hand/foot treatment.
The presence of metallic implants in the head region (e.g. dental implants or inlays) as well as skin disorders of the face are additional contraindications for using the face mask.
