What is glutathione shot?

Skin Booster

How does it work?

A glutathione shot involves a quick injection that boosts your body’s supply of glutathione, an essential antioxidant that helps keep skin bright and clear. It is frequently used for skin brightening, dark spots removal and skin complexion looking fresh and glowing.

Unlike creams or pills, the shot goes directly into your bloodstream, for faster action. It aids in slowing the melanin production, the pigment responsible for darker skin and spots, launching you towards a more fair and even skin tone with use over time.

Several benefits include:

  • Brighter skin
  • Even skin tone
  • Detox support for overall health
  • Stronger immune system
  • Anti-ageing
  • Clearer complexion

What is glutathione?

Glutathione is something your body makes from three amino acids: cysteine, glutamic acid and glycine. It is found in every cell and serves as a potent antioxidant that helps defend your body from damage tied to stress, pollution in your everyday environment. It also aids your liver to remove harmful toxins.

Our glutathione levels can decrease as we age or if we are struggling through a health issue, such as diabetes or liver disease. Foods like spinach, broccoli and avocados may help raise it. Some people also rely on supplements or glutathione IV therapy to help their body, increase energy and maintain skin health.

The procedure
Glutathione Shots At Home
Can I self administer glutathione injections at home?

Administering glutathione through injections to yourself can pose some risks if you do not know how to do it the right way. It is best done by a doctor or a cosmetic specialist so that you do not run into trouble and get the best results.

Glutathione Safety And Dosage.
What is the best dosage for safe use per session?

Doctors typically recommend 600 to 1200 mg of glutathione twice a week. Since results are not permanent, you will need to get several sessions if you want to keep the brightness of your skin. The ideal is normally 8 to 10 sessions spaced out for the best result, although the number varies according to your skin tone.

Noticeable Gradual Results
Is it permanent skin whitening?

It gradually brightens your skin but it does not permanently change your natural color. The transformation is gradual to begin with, and will become more noticeable with time. Supporting the process with vitamins C and E, in combination with consistent skincare products, can help your skin achieve healthy glow.

Glutathione Shot Results
When can you expect to see the results?

Results vary from person to person and are based on factors such as metabolism and the desired end result. But most people start to see results in roughly two weeks after starting treatment.

Pausing Glutathione Shots.
Is it ok to stop glutathione shots?

You can decide to discontinue the glutathione treatments once your ideal skin tone is achieved. The results usually last for a while but are not permanent. For a youthful, healthy looking appearance, follow-up sessions may be necessary with time.

The price
Package Choices
How much does Glutathione Shot cost?

Glutathione injections are a growing trend in skin lightening and moisturising. At Harley Street Skin Clinic, one shot of 150mg of glutathione is £200. But that cost can vary based on a couple of things.

Most people require more than one session to get optimal results, meaning the price tag can also add up. Higher doses tend to be more expensive, and quality of the glutathione also comes into play. Good quality products, from reliable sources, can be more expensive, but they are also safer and more effective.
