What is IV therapy?

IV therapy is a method of delivering nutrients into your body intravenously. Your provider at Refine Skin Medspa places a catheter into a vein in your arm. They remove the needle, leaving the catheter taped in place and attached to a customized IV bag containing your specific blend of nutrients. 

How can IV therapy help me achieve my aesthetic goals?

IV therapy can help you with a variety of aesthetic concerns, including:

• Improve dull and dehydrated skin
• Brighten overall complexion
• Enhance skin luminosity 
• Improve skin elasticity 
• Improve metabolism for weight loss
• Enhance nutritional health for overall healthier skin and physical well-being 

The team at Refine Skin Medspa can help discuss your goals to help you find the right IV cocktail that can address your needs. Many people combine nutrients to effectively treat several concerns at once.

How does IV therapy work?

Since IV therapy delivers vitamins and minerals directly into your bloodstream, it bypasses the digestive process, which can prevent the nutrients from being absorbed properly and used effectively. 

If you have certain medical conditions that make it challenging for you to get the essential nutrients you need and oral supplements are hard to take, IV therapy is an excellent alternative to maintaining your nutritional health. 

Even if you eat a balanced diet, you may still fall short of getting the daily requirements for vitamins and minerals. IV therapy not only quickly treats nutrient deficiencies but effectively addresses skin concerns and more. 

What nutrients are in IV therapy?

Before your IV therapy, your provider explains which nutrients can help improve your skin and bodywide health. Then, she customizes your IV therapy plan to meet your needs.

Your IV therapy may contain a mix of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fluids in the dose that you need. 

Premade solutions may also be available. The Myers’ cocktail was the first IV infusion, and it’s still popular today. This mixture contains calcium, magnesium, B vitamins, and vitamin C. Other IV infusions are tailored to your goals.
