IV Infusion Therapy
 

What can I expect?

If you have ever been hospitalized, had surgery or been to the emergency room, you’ve probably received intravenous (IV) infusion therapy. We start by accessing a vein with a small IV cannula and then connect it with tubing to a bag of fluids – typically, normal saline 0.9% which is isotonic and well-tolerated by virtually everyone. We can then customize an infusion based on your specific needs and goals. Some patients choose just to receive a bag of saline to improve hydration status, but most choose a skin brightening or wellness infusion blend. 

 

Some of the ingredients in our wellness infusion include:

B Vitamins: Increases energy, promotes fat metabolism, enhances weight loss, promotes healthy
nervous system, improves blood flow & circulation, improves oxygenation status, enhances hair,
skin, nails and more. 

 

 

Calcium: Strengthens bones, protects cardiac muscles, promotes healthy blood pressure, helps
treat and prevent premenstrual symptoms (PMDD, mood swings, cramps), and helps maintain
optimal body weight. 
 
 
Magnesium: promotes calcium absorption and bone health, maintains heart health, prevents and
relieves migraines, helps relieve PMS symptoms, and reduces anxiety. 

  

Vitamin C: a powerful antioxidant that enhances the immune system, protects against
cardiovascular and eye disease, and improves the appearance of the skin. 

  

Glutathione: The most powerful antioxidant made by our bodies, this ingredient is vital in
immune system function, helps repair cellular damage, improves recovery times from injury and
enhances athletic performance. 

 

Clients choose the wellness infusion when they want to recover or prepare for a big event/night
out (parties, games, events), to alleviate a hangover, to help boost immune system during acute
illness such as flu/cold/COVID-19, and to help boost nutrition and hydration status.

 

 

 
Some patients who have been on long-term weight loss programs have nutritional deficits due to
restricted caloric intake, decreased protein intake and nutrient malabsorption concerns. IV
nutrition and hydration therapy may help these patients improve nutritional status by delivering
the vital nutrients they need directly into their vein, bypassing stomach and increasing
absorption. 

 

Patients who choose IV therapy often include those who have done weight loss programs with medications such as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro), phentermine, Saxenda or other medications, or even after bariatric surgery (gastric sleeve, gastric bypass or duodenal switch).  We also offer IV push medications along with our infusions to address other symptoms you might be experiencing, such as ondansetron (Zofran) for nausea, famotidine (Pepcid) to decrease stomach acid, dexamethasone (Decadron, a steroid) to reduce inflammation, and ketorolac (Toradol) for pain. 

Our skin brightening infusion includes antioxidants Vitamin C and glutathione, with the
additional of tranexamic acid. This brightening agent is used to reduce hyperpigmentation. It also
serves as an excellent treatment to reduce heavy bleeding during menstruation and can help treat
symptoms associated with your period (PMS, PMDD, heavy cramping). For clients using our
skin brightening IV infusion, therapy will be enhanced by using safe sun practices (wearing SPF,
avoiding prolonged exposure), using medical grade skin care including retinol, and cycling hydroquinone and other topical brightening agents. We also suggest regular treatment with our esthetician to ensure you are using the appropriate topical products at home and
incorporating other appropriate therapies such as chemical peels, facials, microneedling, dermaplane and
hydrofacial/hydrodermabrasion.
