At Egg Clinic in Sinsa, Gangnam, a doctor checks your health and chooses a formula for goals such as fatigue, jet lag recovery or skin brightness; a drip takes about 30–60 minutes with no downtime, and effects vary from person to person.

What are vitamin injections?
Vitamin injections are a way of giving nutrients such as vitamin C, B vitamins, minerals and antioxidants directly into the body. A short shot goes into a muscle, while an IV drip delivers a larger blend into a vein over 30–60 minutes. Because they bypass the gut, more of the nutrient reaches the bloodstream than with tablets, which is helpful for people who absorb supplements poorly.
In Korea, IV drips are popular for tiredness, recovery after travel or a busy schedule, and for skin brightness. Common options include high-dose vitamin C, B-complex blends and the antioxidant glutathione. Evidence for wellness benefits in healthy people is still limited, so the doctor will discuss realistic expectations and choose a blend that suits your health, rather than offering the same drip to everyone.
Who is a good candidate?
- Travellers feeling tired or jet-lagged
- People with a busy schedule wanting a recovery boost
- Those who want antioxidant support for dull skin
- Patients with low vitamin levels or poor absorption, as advised by a doctor
Vitamin drips are not suitable for everyone. People with kidney disease, heart failure, G6PD deficiency (for high-dose vitamin C), certain allergies, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding need a doctor's review first or should avoid some formulas. Vitamin injections do not replace a balanced diet or treatment for an underlying illness, and persistent fatigue should be investigated properly.

How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor asks about your health, medications and goals, then recommends a formula.
-
Preparation
You relax in a treatment chair while a nurse places a small cannula in a vein in your arm.
-
The drip
The vitamin blend flows in slowly over about 30–60 minutes. Shorter shots take only a few minutes.
-
Aftercare
The cannula is removed and a plaster applied. You can return to normal activities straight away; drink water through the day.
Tips for international patients
- Book a drip on WhatsApp for the day after you land if you want help with jet lag.
- Eat a light meal before an IV drip to avoid feeling light-headed.
- Tell the doctor about any supplements or medicines you take so the formula can be adjusted.
- Drips combine easily with skin treatments on the same visit; ask the doctor about timing.
