What is a hair and skin wellness infusion?
Rather than a single fixed recipe, this is a group of formulations that vary from clinic to clinic. Common ingredients include:
- Vitamin C
- B-complex vitamins, especially biotin (B7) and B12
- Glutathione, as an antioxidant
- Zinc and magnesium
- Sometimes collagen precursors or amino acids
Delivered directly into the bloodstream, these nutrients bypass the gut, which can be helpful for people who absorb oral supplements poorly.

Before your infusion
Blood tests before your infusion
Identifying the real cause of hair or skin problems is the most valuable step, so we may recommend:
- Complete blood count (CBC)
- Iron studies: ferritin, serum iron and TIBC
- Vitamin levels: vitamin B12, vitamin D and zinc (where available)
Depending on your history, additional tests can include:
- Thyroid function tests (TSH, T3, T4): important in any hair-loss assessment
- Liver function tests (LFTs)
- Kidney function tests (KFTs)
These help us identify the true cause of the problem, not just treat the symptoms.

A hair and skin infusion is most useful when there is an underlying nutritional reason behind a hair or skin concern. Medically reasonable candidates include:
- Individuals with confirmed vitamin or mineral deficiencies, such as biotin, B12 or zinc deficiency
- Patients with hair loss related to a deficiency: for example, telogen effluvium caused by a nutritional shortfall
- People with malabsorption conditions, where oral supplements are less effective
It is also requested for cosmetic skin brightening, anti-ageing and general "beauty enhancement". Where there is no underlying deficiency, we will be honest with you that the benefit may be limited.
Risks and considerations
The main points to be aware of are:
- Allergic reactions
- Vitamin toxicity, particularly with repeated use
- Unnecessary treatment if no deficiency actually exists
This last point matters. If your bloods are normal, more vitamins will not usually mean better hair or skin, and we will tell you that.
Our approach at Dr. Torun's Clinic
We start with an honest conversation and, where appropriate, blood tests, because the best results come from treating the underlying cause. If a hair and skin wellness drip is right for you, it is delivered under medical supervision with monitoring throughout.

Hair & Skin FAQs.
What is in a hair and skin wellness drip?
Formulations vary, but common ingredients include vitamin C, B-complex vitamins (especially biotin/B7 and B12), the antioxidant glutathione, zinc and magnesium, and sometimes amino acids or collagen precursors. At Dr. Torun's Clinic the mix is chosen by a doctor based on your needs.
Will an IV drip stop my hair falling out?
It can help when hair loss is caused by a nutritional deficiency, for example, low iron, B12 or zinc. If your bloods are normal, extra vitamins are unlikely to make a difference. That is why we look for the underlying cause first rather than assuming a drip is the answer.
Do I need blood tests first?
We usually recommend them. Useful tests include a complete blood count, iron studies and ferritin, vitamin B12, vitamin D and zinc, and often thyroid function, which is important in any hair-loss assessment. These identify the true cause instead of just treating symptoms.
How soon will I see results?
Where a genuine deficiency is corrected, skin often responds within a few weeks, while hair changes typically lag several weeks behind because of the hair growth cycle. Consistency and treating the underlying cause matter more than any single infusion.
Who should not have this infusion?
It is not suitable if there is no underlying deficiency and you are well, as unnecessary vitamins carry a small risk of toxicity. We also take extra care with anyone who has kidney or liver conditions or known allergies. A short assessment lets us advise you safely.
