What is the purpose of high frequency in the context of electrolysis?

  1. To clean the skin

  2. To apply heat

  3. To create chemical reactions

  4. To stimulate collagen production

The correct answer is: To apply heat

High frequency is primarily utilized in electrolysis for its ability to apply heat to the targeted area. This heat can help in various ways, including enhancing blood circulation and improving the absorption of products applied to the skin. When high-frequency currents are introduced during the electrolysis process, they generate heat, which can facilitate the breakdown of fatty tissues and improve overall skin texture. This thermal energy can also contribute to creating an optimal environment for the electrolysis treatment to be more effective. While some users may also consider the potential for stimulating collagen production as a benefit of high-frequency treatments, the main and immediate purpose during electrolysis is to generate heat. Other options focus on different aspects of skin treatment rather than the direct heating effect that high frequency provides.
