No treatment should be considered completely risk free. Potential issues related to IV therapy can include bruising, pain at the insertion site, irritation, swelling, infection, a reaction to an infused ingredient, fluid related problems, and other issues related to the formulation.
Suitability is also assessed against medical history, kidney function, cardiac issues, overall health, medication, allergies, pregnancy, breastfeeding, current symptoms, and the specific ingredients in the drip. Together these inform the health assessment and ingredient list your provider reviews with you.
As there is a needle involved, some discomfort with IV placement is normal. Please tell Skinovation if you have a strong aversion to needles, have fainted during an injection or blood draw before, have had poor IV access in the past, or have reacted to an infusion before. We find it more helpful to address these concerns in advance than to say the process is completely painless.
An IV wellness treatment does not carry a surgical recovery, but irritation at the IV site such as pain, redness, swelling or bruising can be expected afterward. Other effects can also occur depending on the infusion formula, so Skinovation provides aftercare instructions specific to the Energy IV you receive.
An Energy IV does not replace sleep. Not getting enough sleep can make you feel tired, and an IV drip does not solve a lack of sleep. The same applies to nutrition, stress and other underlying causes, and IV therapy cannot cover nutritional gaps that food and evidence based strategies address.
