Saalio® Face Electrode (Face Mask)

Contraindications: Iontophoresis should never be used for…   
Saalio® Face mask with graphite fibres can only be used together with a Saalio® iontophoresis device!   
Please also note that the face electrode must rest on the skin, which can be prevented by a beard! Textile electrodes are subject to material-related wear processes due to drying and use. The manufacturer therefore recommends replacing it after 12 months.

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.

The anatomically designed Saalio® face electrode facilitates the extended application of tap water Iontophoresis to the face. The shaped mask made of soft fleece adjusts extensively and most of all virtually 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 additional 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 which prevents local current spikes. The softness of the graphite fibers ensures that the face mask maintains its flexibility and pliability.

While the face mask represents the electrical contact surface with the unit, the hands or feet (basin) are required as secondary contact surface so that electricity can flow through the body. In principle, this configuration resembles the application for the combined hand/foot treatment.

Features of the Saalio® Iontophoresis device, which this mask was built for

• Free choice of treatment: direct current and pulsed current in one unit
• Free choice of parameters: treatment time, current strength, type of current and direction of current
• Intuitive operation supported by symbols, large graphic display
• Continuous feedback on actual current intensity
• Safety functions to avoid the so-called electric fence effect
• Immersion detection – device starts automatically
• Pause function and limit stop switch with acoustic signal
• Memory function: unit starts with the last parameter setting
• Soft silicon electrodes with an ample proportion of highly conductive graphite
• Sponge material made of natural-colored fleece free of coloring agents and preservatives
• The absence of open electrode contacts ensures safer dealing with electricity
• Soft, open-pored foam inserts – very comfortable, quick-drying and machine washable
• Proprietary ergonomically designed treatment basins
• Breathable textile bag for storage
• Wide range power adapter for travelling
