What is a B12 shot?

Enhanced Skin Glow

What does it do?

B12 is an essential nutrient that the body requires for energy, brain health and nerve function. However, what does B12 actually do for your body?

Vitamin B12 aides in the conversion of food into energy so you feel more energised. It is important for both the health of your nerves and brain cells to help memory and mood. Additionally, it also assists your blood to produce red cells to help shield against pernicious anaemia where you have pale skin and might start feeling weak and extreme tiredness.

Vitamin B12 also contributes to the health of our skin in numerous ways. It also aids to generate brand-new skin cells that will keep your skin looking even fresher and healthier. B12 contributes to skin healing and also helps in repairing damage, which is why scars are less likely or blemishes will disappear. It hydrates the skin that prevents dryness and makes it glowy. B12 also has anti-inflammatory properties to calm the skin when it is irritated, and help reduce acne or eczema conditions.

Several benefits include:

  • More energy
  • Better mood
  • Proper functioning of brain
  • Keeps skin hydrated
  • Evens out skin tone
  • Support healing

The many types

Methylcobalamin

The most easily absorbed form of B12 available in animal-based food sources, such as meat, fish, milk and eggs. Brain, nerve and liver health support.

Adenosylcobalamin

An active form of B12 that operates with Methylcobalamin to fulfil the body’s need for this essential vitamin. And it increase energy levels,protects healthy nerve cells, and make blood cells healthy.

Cyanocobalamin

A synthetic form of B12 that is converted by the body to active forms such as Methylcobalamin and Adenosylcobalamin. This is common in some supplements and is very affordable.

Hydroxocobalamin

A form of vitamin B12 found in nature that is beneficial for addressing severe deficiencies. Typically used to be administered in a series of injections by a physician.

The procedure
Direct Absorption
How does it work?

Because the B12 injection goes through the upper arm straight into your muscle, instead of being absorbed in the stomach like pills, it works quicker and is more absorbable than any pill. Most patients come in for a B12 Vitamin shot as it gives many an energy boost and improves overall well being.

Quick Boost Of Vitamin B12
Can I feel instant improvement?

As B12 injections are a rapid injection, many patients report feeling more energised and refreshed almost immediately after 48 to 72 hours. When it comes to how soon you see results for skin, understand that great positive changes such as a healthier complexion will take several treatments over time. Consistently taking B12 shots can result in gradual skin and health improvements as the vitamin accumulates within your body.

Personalized B12 Dosing
How much B12 dosage is recommended?

Your prescribed dose will be individualised by a healthcare professional based on your needs. The standard strategy would be 1,000 mcg per treatment.

Boost Health Monthly
How often should you get Vitamin B12 injection?

You can opt for a weekly injection for the short term, others may then proceed with every month schedule to actually see better skin, hair, or health improvements.

Doctor-Approved Vitamin B12
Can I get a Vitamin B12 injection if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

Pregnant or breastfeeding mothers need to talk with their doctor before taking a shot. Vitamin B12 is important in a baby’s developmental nervous system and aids in producing milk. Your doctor will provide the best advice relevant to your medical conditions.
