Intravenous (IV) treatments are no longer restricted to serious medical procedures.

A number of IV hydration therapies have emerged in recent years. They promise to boost energy levels, enhance moods, and improve immune system function, among others.

One of the most popular benefits of these infusions, especially among A-list celebrities, is their anti-aging capabilities.

New therapies have shown promise in reducing fine lines, easing wrinkles, and eliminating age spots, apart from dealing with a host of other aging issues such as chronic pain, and the onset of neurodegenerative diseases.

Sounds too good to be true? Let’s take a closer look at how it works.

What Are IV Hydration Therapies?

IV therapies have risen in prominence over the last few years for their ability to deliver crucial vitamins, nutrients, and amino acids into our bodies.

An IV infusion bypasses the digestive tract and delivers these essential substances directly into our bloodstream. The drip may also contain a higher concentration of nutrients, making it more effective than oral supplements.

Other traditional skin treatments, especially those related to aging, notoriously take a long time before results begin to show. IV infusions, however, eliminate free radicals and toxins much quicker, nourishing your skin with near-immediate effects.

How Do IV Cocktails Reverse Aging? 

Wellness enthusiasts have a number of infusions and cocktails at their disposal. Each contains higher or lower levels of certain vitamins and minerals depending on the condition that needs to be addressed. Infusions that are designed to reverse the aging process usually include one or more of the following ingredients:

• Vitamin B Complex: Reduces breakouts and increases skin cell turnover
• Vitamin C: Increases collagen levels, helping your skin regain its elasticity; also has antioxidant properties that counter the production of free radicals
• Glutathione: Another antioxidant that can help minimize wrinkles and age spots
• Zinc: Boosts collagen production and reduces the likelihood of acne by tackling inflammation

At the end of the day, the most effective way to treat common skin issues and aging-related diseases is consistent hydration. IV therapies are known to be the most effective forms of hydration as they all contain saline, a combination of water and sodium chloride, which is used to treat dehydration.

NAD+ Infusion for Anti-Aging

One of the most promising anti-aging IV cocktails is NAD+ therapy.

Short for nicotinamide adenine, NAD+ is a coenzyme that is naturally produced in our bodies to control the gene that accelerates aging.

The problem is our bodies produce lower levels of NAD+ as we get older, creating an environment that’s susceptible to age-related conditions. With NAD+ infusion therapy, another popular IV cocktail, it’s possible to boost coenzyme levels while slowing down the aging process.
