Immune Boost Injections
Quick answer
Immune boost injections are IV drips combining vitamin C, zinc, selenium, B vitamins and sometimes glutathione or thioctic acid, chosen for nutrients involved in normal immune function. At Oaro Dermatology Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul, they are part of doctor-screened IV therapy (수액요법) given by a board-certified dermatologist. They may support recovery and well-being during demanding periods; they do not prevent or cure infection.

Every plan at Oaro Dermatology Clinic begins with a 1:1 skin diagnosis by a board-certified dermatologist, so the dose, device settings and session count are set for your skin rather than a template. Meet our doctors or ask about your own skin .

Overview

What are immune boost injections?

An immune boost drip, sometimes called a Myers'-style or wellness infusion, supplies a blend of micronutrients that the immune system uses in its normal work: vitamin C for white-cell function and antioxidant defence, zinc and selenium as cofactors for immune enzymes, B vitamins for energy metabolism, and occasionally glutathione or thioctic acid as additional antioxidants. Delivered intravenously, these reach higher blood levels than tablets, which is the rationale clinics in Seoul give for offering them to patients who feel run down, are travelling or are recovering from a procedure.

A clear word on expectations: there is no reliable evidence that IV nutrients prevent colds or strengthen immunity in people who are already well nourished. The benefit is most plausible when levels are low or demands are high. We present immune boost injections as supportive care that may help you feel better during a demanding stretch, not as protection against illness and not as a substitute for vaccines, sleep or medical treatment.

How immune boost injections work at Oaro

At Oaro Dermatology Clinic in Apgujeong, Seoul, immune boost drips belong to the Oaro Personal Conditioning program alongside our skin treatments. A board-certified dermatologist screens your history, medications, allergies and kidney function, then adjusts the blend and vitamin C dose. The drip runs in a private room for 30–45 minutes. International patients often book it on arrival in Seoul before a treatment course, pairing it with vitamin injections or a higher-dose vitamin C IV, or after a resurfacing laser from our laser hub to support recovery. The IV therapy page explains how we plan drips, and the injectable treatments hub lists every option. Written aftercare and a care notebook entry follow each visit.

Your visit

What to expect

1. Consultation & diagnosis

A dermatologist reviews your symptoms, medications and medical history, and recommends a blend and dose or advises against a drip if it is not suitable.

2. The infusion

An IV line is placed and the drip runs over 30–45 minutes while you rest in a private room. Mild warmth or a vitamin taste is normal.

3. Aftercare & follow-up

No downtime. For a series, visits are weekly, and your dermatologist checks how you feel before continuing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do immune boost drips prevent colds?

No. They may support nutrient levels, but there is no good evidence they prevent infection in healthy people. Sleep, hand hygiene and vaccination matter more.

What is in an immune boost drip?

Typically vitamin C, zinc, selenium, B-complex and sometimes glutathione or thioctic acid in saline. Your dermatologist adjusts the mix.

Is it safe?

Generally yes when screened by a doctor. People with kidney disease, G6PD deficiency or certain allergies may need a different plan.

How often can I have it?

Weekly for a short series, then occasionally as needed. Daily drips are not recommended.

Can I have it on the same day as a laser treatment?

Yes. Many Oaro patients schedule a drip right after a laser or injectable session.
