Sonophoresis is a non-invasive technique that uses ultrasound waves to enhance the delivery of drugs and other therapeutic agents through the skin and into the underlying tissues. The ultrasound waves create mechanical vibrations that temporarily increase the permeability of the skin, allowing larger molecules or hydrophilic substances to penetrate more effectively. This method is often used in dermatology and cosmetic applications to promote the absorption of certain medications, nutrients, or active ingredients, particularly in transdermal drug delivery systems.
