What Glutathione Does
Glutathione is the antioxidant your body uses to clean up oxidative stress. The Glow Shot puts 400 mg into a muscle, where it releases into your bloodstream over time. It supports your skin cells, your liver, and your immune system in one quick visit.
Why It Has a Cult Following in NYC
Glutathione has built up a serious fan base among New York models, actors, and skin care obsessives. The reason is the glow. Many regulars say their skin looks brighter and more even after a few sessions. It is also the go to for hangover recovery, since the liver burns through glutathione fast when processing alcohol.
Standard 400 mg vs. Maximum 1,000 mg
The 400 mg dose at $35 fits most wellness goals: daily glow upkeep, occasional liver support, and antioxidant maintenance. Many clients start here and stay here for weekly or monthly visits.
The 1,000 mg dose at $75 is the level up. It delivers 2.5 times the glutathione of the standard dose. Your liver, your skin cells, and your immune cells all have more to work with. Clients usually step up when they have a wedding or shoot coming up, are recovering from a heavy travel month, or want a faster timeline on visible skin results.

How It Is Given
Glutathione is a slow IV push, not a drip. Your RN draws it up in a syringe and pushes it gently through your IV line over a few minutes. You may notice a soft sulfur taste in your mouth during the push. That is normal and passes quickly. The higher dose calls for a slower push to keep the experience comfortable.
Drips That Already Include Glutathione
Most of our signature drips already include 400 mg of glutathione: Myers Cocktail, Hangover IV, Jet Lag IV, Glow Up IV, Athletic Recovery IV, Brain Fog & Focus NAD+ IV, and Wall Street IV. The Immunity Boost IV, Mega Myers IV ($399), Ultimate IV ($699), and Black Card ($999) include the full 1,000 mg dose. You only need the add-on if your base drip does not include it or you want a double dose.
What People Use It For
Safety Notes
Glutathione is well tolerated for most adults. People with sulfa allergies, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and anyone in active cancer treatment should let our medical team know before booking. We screen every client through an intake form. The 1,000 mg dose calls for extra care, so share full medication and allergy details when you book.
Pairs Well With
For skin glow, pair glutathione with vitamin C and biotin. For liver support after a heavy week, pair it with B-Complex and B12. For full antioxidant defense, stack it with high dose vitamin C and zinc.
Common Questions
Should I start with 400 mg or jump to 1,000 mg?+
Some clients say their skin tone looks more even and brighter. We do not market the shot as a skin lightening treatment. The focus is glow and antioxidant support.
How fast will I see the skin glow?+
Some clients notice a slight brightness after one session. Most see a clearer change after three to six sessions spaced one to two weeks apart.
Does glutathione lighten skin?+
Some clients notice their skin tone looks more even and brighter. We do not market or pitch glutathione as a skin lightening treatment. Our focus is glow and antioxidant support.
Why is there a sulfur taste during the push?+
Glutathione contains sulfur. The taste is brief and harmless. It passes in a minute or two.
Can I take oral glutathione instead?+
Oral glutathione is broken down in your gut before it can reach your bloodstream. That is why IV push is the gold standard for getting the full dose into your system.
How often should I get it?+
Once or twice a month for glow upkeep. Weekly for short pushes before big events or for active recovery.
