Offering IV Therapy and Wellness Injections

IV Therapy involves administering medications intravenously. This is done by inserting a needle directly into a vein in the patient’s arm. It allows for much more efficient treatment of chronic illnesses since it delivers medicine, antibiotics, and hydration directly into the bloodstream. As a result, there is a  higher absorption rate and you can obtain relief faster.

IV Therapy is ideal for patients who, due to their chronic condition, find that it becomes difficult,  uncomfortable, or impossible to take medication or supplements orally. It provides faster hydration for individuals who recently came out of surgery and have lost a significant amount of fluids. Infusion therapy is also a good option for people who have been unresponsive to oral medications and supplements. It’s great to help people prepare for and recover from physical activity, as well as to alleviate symptoms of migraines, headaches, nausea, jet lag, PMS symptoms, hair loss, and fatigue.

While rare, side effects would depend on the medication/supplements being administered. Some of  them may include: 

• Dizziness 
• Nausea 
• Muscle Stiffness 
• Itchiness at the Injection Site 
• Headaches

Prior to starting your infusion therapy, one of our healthcare professionals will review your prescribed medication and discuss all possible side effects with you. 

Other risks include infection at the injection site where the IV needle is inserted. The needle could also become dislodged, causing the solution to enter the surrounding tissues. To lower these risks, each infusion is administered and monitored by either a Physician, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse APRN,  or a Registered Nurse RN.

The infusion is administered by injecting a needle attached to a small tube directly into one of the patient’s veins. This tube is connected to an IV bag containing the prescribed  

medication(s)/supplement(s). Once attached to your vein, the solution slowly drips into your bloodstream. 

The duration of each session depends on the medication(s)/supplement(s) being administered and your specific needs. Regardless of how long it takes, at Eternal Youth Aesthetics, our staff is fully committed to making sure the experience is as comfortable as possible. You can bring your laptop, a book, or a magazine, and receive your infusions in a comfortable reclining chair. Charging ports are available on every chair. We provide blankets and free Wi-Fi, and you can listen to music or watch NetFlix on our big-screen TV. You can also have the peace of mind that comes from having either a doctor, nurse practitioner, or nurse monitoring the infusion. 

Another benefit is that our infusion center is more welcoming and cozier than a hospital environment. In addition, costs are much lower at an outpatient facility than at a hospital.

Yes. If you need to use the restroom once treatment has started, let your provider know. Your infusion may be paused for several minutes to allow you to take a bathroom break. A hook is on the wall to hang your IV bag. Depending on the medication, you may need assistance to stay steady on your feet. If you suffer from incontinence, you may want to wear disposable underwear to prevent accidents.

You are more than welcome to bring in a family member or a friend for company or support. This is part of our unwavering commitment to make you feel as comfortable as possible. If there are not enough open chairs for guests in the infusion room, guests may have to sit in the lobby. We also require that all minors be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. A refreshment station is available in the lobby, and we also have a Kid’s Room complete with a play kitchen simulation area, a small table, chairs, a coloring activity center, a marker board, and markers.

Yes. You can bring your own snacks or drinks. We provide a selection of snacks, as well as hot beverages  (coffee) and cold beverages (bottled water, Coke, Ginger Ale, and Root Beer) to make you feel at home.

Yes. When scheduling an appointment with us, let our team members know that you would prefer to receive treatment in a private room.

At Eternal Youth Aesthetics, first and foremost, we want you to feel at ease. To ensure your treatment  goes smoothly: 

1. Write down all of your concerns. 

Prior to commencing therapy, make a list of all your questions. We’ll be happy to discuss them with you.  We will explain the entire process, the risks versus benefits of infusion therapy, as well as any matters that may be making you anxious. 

2. Make a list of medications you’re taking. 

Regardless of whether you’re taking prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, or supplements, let our team members know. This is essential to ensure that you don’t experience an adverse reaction from mixing items that don’t work well together. 

3. Wear comfortable clothes. 

This serves a dual purpose. First, it’s practical — one of our healthcare professionals will take your vital signs — and wearing loose-fitting clothes will make this process easier. Second, while we’ll make sure you’re in a comfortable environment, what you wear can help make you feel more relaxed. 

4. Clear your schedule, if you can. 

You may need time to rest after your infusion treatment. Your body may either need the time to fully recover, or you may need time off if you experience side effects. Try not to stress yourself out thinking that you have to rush to get to work or run other errands.
