NAD+ therapy is one of the most talked-about treatments in advanced wellness - but it’s also one of the most misunderstood.
If you’re considering NAD+ IV therapy or skin booster injections, here are the answers to the most common questions we get at the clinic.
What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell of the body. It plays a vital role in energy production, cellular repair, and maintaining overall cellular health.
As we age, NAD+ levels naturally decline - this can affect how we feel, function, and even how our skin looks.
What are the benefits of NAD+ therapy?
NAD+ therapy is designed to support your body at a cellular level. Benefits may include:
Increased energy levels
Improved focus and mental clarity
Support for cellular repair
Anti-ageing and longevity support
Enhanced overall wellbeing
For some clients, it can also contribute to improved skin vitality and radiance.
How is NAD+ different from a regular IV drip?
Most IV drips deliver vitamins and hydration.
NAD+ therapy goes a step further by supporting the processes your cells use to produce energy and repair themselves. Because of this, it is administered more slowly and is considered a more advanced form of IV therapy.
How long does an NAD+ treatment take?
NAD+ infusions typically take longer than standard drips.
Depending on the dose, treatments can last between 2 to 4 hours. This slower delivery helps ensure comfort and optimal absorption.
Will I feel anything during the treatment?
Yes, this is one of the most common questions.
Some clients experience mild sensations during NAD+ infusion, such as:
Warmth
Slight chest pressure
Mild nausea
These effects are temporary and are managed by adjusting the infusion rate to keep you comfortable.
Is NAD+ therapy safe?
When administered by trained professionals, NAD+ therapy is considered safe.
At our clinic, all treatments are tailored to your individual tolerance and closely monitored throughout your session.
How many sessions will I need?
For best results, we typically recommend a course of treatments:
IV Therapy: 4 - 6 sessions
Skin Boosters: 3 - 6 sessions
Maintenance sessions can then be done monthly or as advised.
What is NAD+ skin booster treatment?
NAD+ skin boosters involve delivering NAD+ directly into the skin using micro-injections.
This helps support skin regeneration at a cellular level, improving overall skin quality, radiance, and health.
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal.
IV Therapy: No downtime
Skin Boosters: Mild redness, swelling, or small bumps may occur and usually settle within 24 – 48 hours
When will I see results?
Some clients notice benefits such as improved energy and clarity within hours or days.
For skin and longer-term results, improvements build gradually over a course of treatments.
Who is NAD+ therapy suitable for?
NAD+ therapy is ideal for individuals who:
Feel tired or burnt out
Want to improve focus and productivity
Are interested in anti-ageing and longevity
Want to improve overall wellness
Are looking to enhance skin health
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are usually mild and temporary. These may include:
Nausea
Headache
Fatigue
Mild discomfort during infusion
Your practitioner will guide you through the process and adjust your treatment as needed.
Can NAD+ be combined with other treatments?
Yes, NAD+ therapy can be combined with other treatments to enhance results.
This may include:
Antioxidant IV therapies
Skin boosters
Other advanced aesthetic treatments
Your treatment plan will be tailored to your individual goals.
