    uses ultrasound waves to enhance skin absorption of substances

    Sonophoresis is a technique that uses ultrasound waves to enhance the delivery of topical medications or other substances through the skin. By creating microscopic channels in the skin, the ultrasound waves increase the permeability of the skin, allowing for more efficient absorption of the applied substances. This method is often used in dermatology and cosmetology to improve the effectiveness of treatments.
