Infusions
Selected micronutrients given by infusion can support the complexion from within and may be helpful for a proven deficiency, exhaustion or susceptibility to infections.
Given into the vein, the micronutrients bypass the gut and are immediately available to the body. We do not offer a standard infusion: it is always based on a conversation and, where possible, a lab value. Only then do we decide on composition and dose together. Sometimes the outcome is: no infusion at all.
Frequently used here
- Vitamin C, high-dose for a proven deficiency. It can also support the skin and may be helpful for exhaustion, acute infections and susceptibility to infections.
- Iron for a proven deficiency. It may also be helpful for exhaustion, susceptibility to infections or hair loss.
- Vitamin B complex, vitamin B12 and folic acid for a proven deficiency. They may also be helpful for exhaustion, for the nerves or for the blood vessels.
- Biotin for a proven deficiency. It can also contribute to an improved complexion.
- Coenzyme Q10 for a proven deficiency. It may also be helpful for exhaustion and in the area of healthy ageing.
- Individual blends, further vitamins and minerals as agreed, requested and indicated by findings.
The following applies to all the infusions listed: they can also have a supportive effect in the area of healthy ageing. No particular result can be promised; the effect varies from person to person.
Lab values: recommended, not required
We recommend having the relevant values measured before an infusion. Then we know what is actually lacking and can dose precisely. It is not mandatory: at your express request, we will also give an infusion without prior lab tests, provided there are no contraindications. You can have the lab values measured directly here at the practice; through our partner laboratories, a comprehensive range of laboratory and diagnostic services is available: iron status, all vitamin levels, all mineral levels, mitochondrial analyses and many other parameters.
Things to consider
As with any infusion, redness, bruising or vein irritation are possible at the injection site; rarely, circulatory reactions or intolerances occur. With certain pre-existing conditions, such as impaired kidney function, high-dose administration is not suitable. Nutritional supplementation by infusion does not replace a healthy diet. We discuss in advance what makes sense in your case and what you can do without.
Beauty drips
For blends aimed primarily at skin, hair and well-being, the term “beauty drip” has become established. It means nothing other than what is described above: a vitamin and nutrient infusion put together after a medical consultation. It can have an antioxidant effect, support circulation and oxygen supply and contribute to a vital complexion. Here, too, no particular result can be promised.
You will find further infusions, for example with magnesium, as well as intravenous injections under Infusion therapy.
