Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

NAD⁺ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a naturally occurring coenzyme found in every cell of the body. It plays a central role in cellular energy production, metabolic function, and mitochondrial performance. Levels naturally decline with age and stress.

BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide derived from a naturally occurring protein found in the body. It has been studied for its role in tissue repair signaling and recovery pathways.

TB-500 is a synthetic peptide modeled after Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring protein involved in cell migration and tissue repair processes.

BPC-157 is often discussed for localized repair signaling, while TB-500 is associated with broader systemic tissue support and mobility pathways.

GHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide naturally present in human plasma. It has been studied for its role in collagen signaling and tissue regeneration.

While widely recognized for cosmetic benefits, it also plays a role in tissue signaling and regeneration processes.

KPV is a small peptide derived from alpha-MSH, a naturally occurring hormone involved in inflammatory response regulation.

Glutathione is a naturally occurring antioxidant produced in the body. It plays a critical role in detoxification and cellular protection.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Pro tip: For enhanced comfort and absorption, some users apply a dermal roller prior to patch placement.

A protocol is a structured approach to using LavION formulas based on your goals — such as performance, recovery, energy, gut health, or skin renewal.

Some individuals begin with a single formula. Others incorporate complementary formulas into a broader routine.

Stacking means using two complementary formulas together to support different areas at the same time.

Stacking does not require wearing multiple patches simultaneously.

Yes. Many customers use more than one formula as part of their overall routine. Formulas are typically rotated or sequenced rather than worn at the same time.

Common complementary pairings include:

Performance & Recovery
PR1ME + TITAN

Energy & Stress Support
AMPLIFY + BALANCE

Gut & Detox
BALANCE + RENEW

Skin & Longevity
GLOW + RENEW

Injury / Deep Repair
TITAN + BALANCE

Most new users start with one formula to observe how their body responds.

Individuals with more specific goals — such as injury recovery, high training load, high stress, or skin renewal — may incorporate additional complementary formulas.

Consistency matters more than intensity.

Many customers begin with a short loading phase, followed by maintenance use every 5–10 days depending on goals.

Protocols can be adjusted over time.

TITAN is commonly selected by individuals focused on tissue resilience, repair signaling, and recovery from physical strain or repetitive movement.
