Glutathione Treatment Procedure

The steps involved in a glutathione treatment are as follows.

For those seeking more targeted treatment, glutathione can be directly injected into specific areas of the skin for skin-lightening or anti-aging effects.

Procedure Steps

  • Consultation :
    Our experienced team will assess your injection suitability and customize a treatment plan based on your unique needs and goals.
  • Injection Process :
    Our skilled professionals will inject glutathione into specific areas of the face or body where lightening or rejuvenation is desired. The injections are generally quick and may cause slight discomfort, but rest assured, they are minimally invasive and performed with utmost care.
  • Post-Treatment :
    Minimal downtime is expected. Some redness or swelling at the injection site is possible but should subside within a few hours to a day.

Topical glutathione is available in various forms, such as creams, serums, and masks. It is typically used to improve skin tone, treat hyperpigmentation, and nourish overall skin.

Procedure Steps

  • Consultation :
    We will assess your skin type and concerns before recommending topical glutathione products.
  • Application :
    The glutathione-based serum or cream is applied directly to the skin, usually after cleansing and exfoliating the skin. A specialized device or massage may help the serum penetrate deeper in some treatments.
  • Post-Treatment Care :
    You can resume your regular skincare routine after the application. It’s essential to follow a consistent daily routine to achieve optimal results.

We offer specialized glutathione facials that incorporate advanced techniques like laser therapy or ultrasonic technology to enhance the absorption and effectiveness of the antioxidant.

Procedure Steps

  • Consultation :
    Our skincare professionals will determine the appropriate treatment based on your skin needs and concerns.
  • Facial Procedure :
    Our professionals will perform the glutathione infusion after cleansing and exfoliating. It involves using a specialized device or technique to ensure the glutathione penetrates deep into the skin layers, enhancing its effectiveness. The facial process may also include using a laser or other equipment to improve glutathione penetration into the skin layers further. This process helps the glutathione to work at a deeper level, targeting the root causes of skin issues and promoting a more long-lasting effect.
  • Post-Treatment Care :
    A soothing serum or mask is applied to calm the skin and lock in moisture.

Skin Brightening and Lightening

As it inhibits melanin production, glutathione treatment is popular for skin brightening, reducing dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone to achieve a radiant complexion.

Anti-Ageing and Wrinkle Reduction

As a powerful antioxidant, glutathione combats signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles by neutralizing free radicals, reducing wrinkles, boosting elasticity, and promoting youthful skin.

Improved Skin Texture

Glutathione brightens skin while improving texture by fading acne scars, blemishes, and fine lines. It promotes healthy cell regeneration for smoother, more supple skin.

Strengthening the Immune System

Glutathione boosts the immune system by supporting the body's natural defense mechanisms. Its antioxidant properties reduce inflammation and fight infections. By reducing oxidative stress and supporting the body's natural detoxification processes, glutathione can help the immune system function more effectively, leading to overall better health and well-being.

Enhancing Skin Hydration

Glutathione also helps maintain healthy, hydrated skin. Promoting collagen production and reducing oxidative damage can contribute to plump, moisturized skin, which helps combat dryness and flakiness.

For stubborn skin conditions like melasma and sunspots, glutathione helps lighten melasma, sunspots, and hyperpigmentation, restoring an even clearer complexion.
