IMPORTANT: INFORMED CONSENT ON WHITENING INJECTIONS
Reason/Benefits:
For skin whitening and detoxification using compounded Vitamin C and glutathione medications via intravenous infusion. Vitamin C is an antioxidant and is essential for the formation and stabilization of collagen and elastin. Vitamin C also has skin clarifying properties. Glutathione is a natural liver enzyme that the liver needs for breaking down toxins. With succession of treatment, skin whitening injections will make your skin brighter and clearer.
You might also get a secondary effect with energy and immune system boosting from this treatment due to detoxification.
Skin whitening injections are not FDA approved. There is no high quality peer review, published medical literature to substantiate the use of compound medications. It is considered as mesotherapy, and as such, experimental. However, there are many anecdotal reports indicating that it works.
Risks, side effects, and complications:
Risks, side effects and complications that may arise from proper and improper administration may include pain, bleeding, bruising, infection, scar, and ineffective treatment. Excessive sun exposure will minimize the effects of treatment. As such, it is important to avoid sun exposure and to wear sun block every day for optimal result from this treatment. If you are tanned or have excessive sun exposure, you are likely going to see reduction in the efficacy of treatment. This treatment is not suitable for patients that are sick or has kidney and/or liver problems.
PLEASE NOTE FOR HIGH DOSE GLUTATHIONE TREATMENTS:
A doctors approval and laboratory testing is recommended to check for liver health and allergy to the components of the medicine.
The Herxheimer Reaction - Feeling worse before feeling better
The Herxheimer Reaction is a short-term detoxification reaction in the body. As the body detoxifies, it is not uncommon to experience flu-like symptoms including headache, joint and muscle pain, body aches, sore throat, general malaise, sweating, chills, nausea or other symptoms.
This is a normal — and even healthy — reaction that indicates that parasites, fungus, viruses, bacteria or other pathogens are being effectively killed off. The biggest problem with the Herxheimer reaction is that people stop taking the supplement or medication that is causing the reaction, and thus discontinue the very treatment that is helping to make them better. Although the experience may not make you feel particularly good, the Herxheimer Reaction is actually a sign that healing is taking place.
What Is The Herxheimer Reaction?
The Herxheimer Reaction is an immune system reaction to the toxins (endotoxins) that are released when large amounts of pathogens are being killed off, and the body does not eliminate the toxins quickly enough. Simply stated, it is a reaction that occurs when the body is detoxifying and the released toxins either exacerbate the symptoms being treated or create their own symptoms. The important thing to note is that worsening symptoms do not indicate failure of the treatment in question; in fact, usually just the opposite.
Alternative to Whitening Injections:
Chemical peels, cosmeceuticals, maintenance skin care products (Vitamin C, exfoliant, and sun screen), IPL photofacial, and ablative laser treatments. Using oral glutathione as maintenance care following this treatment will enhance skin whitening.
Frequency and duration:
For optimal result, you will need series of treatments. Initially, every week for several weeks and then the duration of treatment could be lengthened to once every 2-3 weeks and then once every 4-6 weeks. You can expect to see result within 2-4 weeks.
Treatment:
IV administration by a licensed IV Therapist or Doctor/Dermatologist using normal saline solution with compounded Vitamin C and glutathione added to the infusion.
Duration of treatment:
About 15-30 minutes for each session.
Pre-treatment precautions:
Do not administer if you have not eaten yet or are tired and stressed. If this is your first time to use glutathione iv, check with a physician. High dose glutathione is not recommended for first time users.
Post treatment precautions:
Avoid sun exposure, tanning booths, spray tan, and wear sun screen on a daily basis.
Apply pressure over the IV site and avoid vigorous exercises of the involved extremity for 1-2 days to minimize risk of bleeding.
Post treatment expectation:
You can expect to see results within 2-4 weeks. Useful complementary treatment that we recommend includes sun block, exfoliant, and Vitamin C, as well as oral glutathione. Complementary treatment helps to minimize the effects of sun damage and sun tan. Additional complementary treatments include: Retin A, hydroquinone, Obagi Nuderm, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion.
For the first few days, there might be some bruising or ecchymosis over the IV site.
Authenticity:
Glutathione supplies are sourced from doctors/dermatologists and are guaranteed to be authentic.
