Anaphoresis is a process that involves what?

  1. A positive pole and an acidic product

  2. A negative pole and an alkaline product

  3. A neutral pole and a neutral product

  4. A positive pole and a neutral product

The correct answer is: A negative pole and an alkaline product

Anaphoresis is a process used in modern esthetics, a form of electrolysis used to introduce chemical products into tissues by means of electric current, which is usually galvanic in nature. In this process, the positive pole, placed on a specific area of the body, helps draw charged chemical products into the skin. These products then have a positive charge and are driven into the tissues by the negative pole. This makes option B the correct answer. With option A and D, the poles are not correctly matched and would not result in the desired chemical introduction. Option C is incorrect because the neutral pole does not facilitate the introduction of any products into the tissues.
