What is glutathione IV, and what can it do?
Glutathione is an antioxidant made naturally in the body; IV glutathione is given as a drip for skin brightening. It is thought to shift melanin production towards lighter pigment, but evidence for visible whitening is limited and results vary.
At YAAN Clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, the doctor explains realistic expectations and often pairs drips with lasers such as pico toning. Pricing is quoted at consultation.
