IV Therapy Uses for Anti-Aging

The fanciest, most expensive skincare, laser peels, injectables, and other treatments can only do so much if you’re not supporting your beauty from the inside. Strong nails, shiny and thick hair, and glowing skin are beautiful expressions of your natural radiance — and that’s made possible by giving your body the vitamins and minerals it needs. Anti-aging IV therapy delivers those ingredients, so you feel amazing from the inside out.

What Is Anti-Aging IV Therapy?

You get facials and deep conditioning hair treatments as part of your beauty upkeep, and an anti-aging IV is just like that. Booking infusions on a regular schedule provides continuous skin, hair, and nail support that strengthens your anti-aging efforts over the long term.

The frequency of your sessions will depend on your overall health, the condition of your skin, hair, and nails, and the goals you’re trying to achieve. An experienced IV provider works with you to develop an IV therapy anti-aging regimen customized to deliver noticeable results you’ll love.

What Is a Beauty Drip?

A beauty drip is a term that refers to an IV bag that contains ingredients designed to enhance your innate loveliness. One of the most popular beauty drips is the Myers’ Cocktail. Formulated by physicians, this drip bag is used for many common health concerns, including symptom relief from illnesses and management of chronic medical conditions such as migraines, asthma, and allergies. 

As it turns out, the ingredients in a Myers’ Cocktail also make it an ideal beauty drip. Here’s what’s inside the drip bag and an explanation of how these ingredients promote a more youthful appearance, bouncy hair, and healthy-looking nails.

Saline

The Myers’ Cocktail fluid is a saline solution that provides electrolytes, flushes out toxins, and acts as an effective carrier of the vitamins and minerals in the drip bag. But, perhaps most important, it provides your body with much-needed hydration.

The outer layer of your skin, the epidermis, is protected by the stratum corneum, which is commonly referred to as the moisture barrier. This barrier has a double-pronged function: to prevent damage to the epidermis from outside irritants (like UV exposure) while also keeping moisture from leaving the skin. If the moisture barrier doesn’t get the hydration it needs, it won’t function properly and your complexion will suffer. An IV can help rehydrate your skin so its tone and texture look (and feel) wonderfully supple. This is a major reason why people seek out vitamin infusion therapy for glowing skin.

Vitamin B12 and B Complex

B vitamins take on a lot of heavy lifting when it comes to your health and wellness. They do it all, from ensuring proper nerve function to growing healthy cells–and the latter is crucial for skin cell turnover that keeps your complexion looking refreshed and vibrant. Vitamin B12 is a key player in cell rejuvenation, while the other vitamins in the B Complex group also support anti-aging in various ways:

• B1 / thiamine may help prevent pimples from popping up due to stress overload.
• B2 / riboflavin can help reduce redness caused by skin inflammation and keeps skin moisturized so it doesn’t produce too much sebum, which can clog pores; it also helps with skin cell turnover and production.
• B3 / niacin soothes and comforts skin, especially with conditions like rosacea and eczema.
• B5 / pantothenic acid is often used in skincare products because it acts as a “humectant,” drawing water to the skin for a stronger moisture barrier.
• B6 / pyridoxine is also useful in an anti-aging IV because it promotes quality sleep, which makes you look well-rested–and makes your skin look amazing. 

Vitamin C and Glutathione

These are two powerful antioxidants, and antioxidants are integral in skincare formulations. That’s because antioxidants neutralize free radicals that can cause oxidative stress damage in the form of lines, dark spots, and dull, sagging skin. The antioxidant power of vitamin C and glutathione improves skin tone, so it looks plump, firm, and smooth. Vitamin C, in particular, is a popular skincare ingredient for its protective effects and how it brightens complexion, giving you that radiant look of health.

Magnesium and Zinc

If you’re getting IV therapy for anti-aging, these two minerals can help. Magnesium calms inflamed skin, while zinc is used for collagen formation. Collagen is the protein that keeps your complexion firm with a healthy elasticity.

In addition to these superpowered vitamins and minerals, you can also add ingredients to your Myers’ Cocktail for the ultimate anti-aging IV therapy. For instance, NAD+ is a coenzyme in the body that supports metabolic processes that keep you feeling young and vital. As we age, however, our bodies produce less of it, which can lead to signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. Adding NAD+ to your vitamin infusion therapy for glowing skin may help slow the signs of aging.

How Anti-Aging IV Therapy Reduces the Appearance of Wrinkles

Well-hydrated skin enhances the moisture barrier so the appearance of lines and wrinkles is diminished (and that healthy barrier can help prevent more lines from forming). And as already noted, ingredients in the Myers’ Cocktail can support collagen production, improve skin texture, and brighten your complexion, which all help reduce the look of wrinkles.
