Question 1

How do LavION patches work?

Accepted Answer

LavION patches use iontophoresis to support the transdermal delivery of active compounds through the skin using a gentle electrical current. This approach is designed to allow steady, needle-free delivery as part of a daily wellness routine.

Question 2

What is iontophoresis?

Accepted Answer

Iontophoresis is a delivery method that uses a low electrical current to help move charged molecules across the skin in a controlled, needle-free format. It has been used in clinical and wellness settings for decades as a non-invasive delivery approach.

Question 3

What is Transdermal Technology?

Accepted Answer

Transdermal technology involves delivering active ingredients directly through the skin, allowing for a steady and controlled release over 8–12 hours into the bloodstream. This method offers several advantages: Extended Half-Life: By providing a constant stream of peptides, transdermal patches extend the half-life of these compounds, ensuring a more sustained effect compared to the peaks and troughs associated with injections. Non-Invasive Application: Unlike injections, patches are painless and can be applied easily, eliminating the discomfort and potential complications of needle-based delivery. Localized Treatment: Patches can be applied directly to specific areas, such as joints, allowing for targeted therapy where it's needed most.

Question 4

What is bioavailability, and why does it matter?

Accepted Answer

Bioavailability refers to how much of a compound is available for the body to use after it is delivered. The delivery method plays an important role in consistency. Transdermal approaches are designed to support gradual exposure compared to delivery methods that rely on digestion or rapid administration.

Question 5

Do LavION patches contain a battery?

Accepted Answer

LavION patches use a micro-current system designed to support iontophoresis. The sensation is typically minimal or not noticeable for most users.

Question 6

What are peptides?

Accepted Answer

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. They help support processes such as tissue repair, inflammation balance, skin renewal, and cellular communication. LavION formulas use targeted peptides designed to support specific wellness goals including recovery, performance, gut balance, and radiance.

Question 7

What makes peptides different from supplements?

Accepted Answer

Peptides are short chains of amino acids designed to signal specific biological pathways. Unlike broad-spectrum vitamins or herbal supplements, peptides are structured to support targeted physiological responses.

Question 8

What is NAD⁺?

Accepted Answer

Peptides support cellular signaling pathways, while glutathione supports antioxidant defense. Together, they create complementary support for recovery and renewal.

Question 17

How often can I use the patches?

Accepted Answer

Usage typically begins with a short loading phase, followed by a maintenance routine. For AMPLIFY (NAD-focused protocols), many users start with three consecutive days, then transition to once weekly, and eventually to a maintenance rhythm of approximately every 5–10 days. Other formulas (PR1ME, BALANCE, RENEW, TITAN, and GLOW) are often used more flexibly — typically 1–2 times per week or as part of a consistent routine — depending on your goals, recovery needs, and provider guidance.

Question 18

Will I feel the patch working?

Accepted Answer

Some users feel a mild tingling or "zingers" sensation, which is due to the iontophoresis technology creating microchannels in the skin to enhance absorption. This is normal and typically subsides quickly.

Question 19

How long does it take to notice results?

Accepted Answer

Some users report noticeable effects within hours, while others experience more gradual benefits over several uses. Consistency is key for optimal results.

Question 20

Can I use more than one LavION patch at the same time?

We generally recommend starting with one patch at a time to assess tolerance and response. Advanced users may stack protocols, but it's best to do so under guidance.

Question 21

What's the absorption profile of LavION patches compared to other methods?

Accepted Answer

LavION uses iontophoresis to actively deliver ingredients through the skin over a sustained ~12-hour period, supporting consistent exposure rather than rapid spikes seen with some other delivery methods. Absorption may vary based on skin condition, hydration, placement, and individual physiology.

Question 22

Where should I apply the patch?

Accepted Answer

Apply to clean, dry skin on areas like the upper arm, shoulder, or foot. These areas tend to be less sensitive. The abdomen can be more prone to irritation for some users. Avoid irritated or broken skin, and rotate placement sites between uses.

Question 23

Are there any side effects associated with using LavION patches?

Accepted Answer

Most users tolerate the patches well. Some may experience mild redness, tingling, or skin sensitivity at the application site due to the adhesive or iontophoresis process. These effects are typically temporary.

Question 24

Why does the patch sometimes cause tingling or itching?

Accepted Answer

A mild tingling or itching sensation can occur as the iontophoresis technology enhances absorption through the skin. This is a normal part of the delivery process and usually resolves quickly. Using less sensitive areas like the upper arm or foot can improve comfort.

Question 25

Is it normal to have redness after removing the patch?

Accepted Answer

Some users may experience mild redness at the application site due to skin sensitivity, the adhesive, or the delivery process. This is generally temporary and resolves within a few hours to a couple of days. Rotating application sites can help reduce irritation.
