SUPPLEMENTS FOR NAILS AND HAIR: VITAMIN INFUSIONS

Weakened nails and significant hair loss are phenomena that may have a common underlying cause. Excluding specific pathologies, such as onychomycosis or alopecia, the conditions that lead to the fragility of nails and hair are often the same. They range from environmental factors - change of season or intense cold - to genetic reasons. From incorrect habits - an unbalanced diet or periods of particular stress - to hormonal changes. We can also mention heavy pharmacological treatments, the use of aggressive products - be they dyes or nail polishes - or pathologies like anemia or thyroid imbalances. In all cases, the supplementation of vitamins and minerals, fundamental players in many metabolic processes, has proved to be a useful support for strengthening damaged nails and hair.

Methods of vitamin supplementation

Vitamin supplementation for nails and hair health can be done in various ways. In addition to a balanced diet that can make the correct intake of micronutrients chronic, there are various options for increasing their absorption. The most obvious route is the oral supplementation with variable contents that can be taken simply by mouth. Secondly, there is the possibility of optimizing the absorption process through the drips which allow complete assimilation of the substances. In the case of hair and nails, there are also creams, ointments and serums that act topically, exploiting the properties of vitamins and minerals.

The difference between the different administration routes lies in the absorption capacity of the active ingredients. While with drips everything that is injected is assimilated by the body, with oral administration part of the nutrients are lost during the digestive process. A different matter, however, for topical application which involves a localized and limited absorption of the active ingredients which act only on a superficial level.

Vitamins useful for the well-being of nails and hair

In case of fragile nails and hair, it’s useful to supplement those micronutrients directly involved in the invigorating processes. For example, a treatment that involves the administration of vitamins intravenously for the health of nails and hair must necessarily contain vitamin B12 and folic acid (vitamin B9) since they work in the metabolic processes fundamental for the growth of hair bulbs and for cell regeneration. Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant, slows down aging by fighting free radicals and increases oxygenation of the scalp. Equally important are zinc, which stimulates the synthesis of collagen and keratin, and iron, whose deficiency affects tissue oxygenation with repercussions on the health of hair and nails.

Vitamin drips for treating nails and hair

Multivitamin drips consist in the administration of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants dissolved in a sterile solution and injected intravenously. The advantage of the infusion into the venous circulation lies in the total absorption of nutrients so that their benefit is optimized and enhanced. The multivitamin treatment benefits the entire organism, performing a regenerating, anti-fatigue and detoxifying function. It is recommended in case of tiredness and stress, to make up for drops in energy and for the well-being of the skin, also as anti-aging. Multivitamin infusions have given excellent results in cases of significant hair loss and for the treatment of brittle nails. For optimal results, the infusions can be customized by choosing the most suitable nutrients.

Administration of multivitamin drips

A multivitamin drip therapy for trichological and onicological treatment can consist of several sessions, with a duration ranging from 20 to 60 minutes per session. The treatment is not painful: the discomfort is typical of a blood sample. To administer a multivitamin infusion, no special pre- or post-therapy precautions are necessary and, at the end of the infusion, the patient can return to his normal activities. Vitamin infusions have no particular contraindications except in cases of known allergy to the components.

Multivitamin drips: costs and sessions

Treatment for hair loss and brittle nails may require a variable number of sessions depending on need. During the first visit, the physician can evaluate the patient's needs, establishing a targeted therapy both in terms of sessions and contents of the infusion. Based on the chosen treatment, it will be possible to establish the precise cost of the therapy. The unit rate per session is around 150-200 euros.
