What Is IV Vitamin Therapy?
IV vitamin therapy delivers vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream. The infusion bypasses digestion, allowing each nutrient to reach the circulation at full strength. This method helps patients who need reliable absorption, steady hydration, or support before and after procedures. Vitamins such as Vitamin C, B-complex, B12, zinc, and magnesium are often included in the drip, depending on your goals.
Why Choose Our Bellevue Wellness Clinic?
This service is offered within a medical practice led by Dr. Rikesh Parikh, a double-board-certified plastic surgeon with advanced training in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. His background includes training at Vanderbilt University in Plastic Surgery, SUNY Buffalo in General Surgery, and a research fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic.
Patients also benefit from the skill of Dr. Albert Yang, a fellowship-trained facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon. His work reflects careful planning, precise execution, and a strong aesthetic judgment. Dr. Yang trained at Emory University, scored in the 91st percentile on his board exam, and brings a deep understanding of facial anatomy to every patient interaction.
Their shared oversight creates a clinical setting where wellness treatments support both surgical preparation and everyday health. Many patients also explore additional services offered by our practice to complement their care.
Benefits of IV Vitamin Therapy
IV therapy supports the body during periods of stress, healing, or fatigue. Each nutrient plays a specific role:
- Vitamin C: Supports collagen repair, immunity, and tissue recovery.
- Vitamin B-Complex: Helps with energy production, nerve health, and red blood cell formation.
- Vitamin B12: Aids metabolism, protein synthesis, and mental clarity.
- Zinc: Supports healing, immunity, and thyroid function.
- Magnesium: Helps reduce muscle tension and promotes more restful sleep.
Surgical patients often feel better prepared and steadier during recovery. Non-surgical patients report increased energy and improved focus.
Typical Treatment Process
Your appointment begins with a brief review of your goals and objectives. A small IV catheter is placed into a vein, and the infusion starts at a steady pace. Most patients rest, read, or use their phone during the session. You may feel a quick pinch during insertion, but the treatment is generally comfortable.
A session usually lasts under an hour. Many surgical patients schedule 1–2 infusions before and 1–2 after their procedure to support recovery and maintain hydration. This timing aligns easily with visits covered in your post-operative guidance.
Are You a Candidate?
You may be a strong candidate if you:
- Want efficient vitamin absorption
- Need support before or after surgery
- Experience low energy or frequent stress
- Want hydration support
- Prefer physician-monitored wellness care
Patients with chronic conditions or allergies to vitamins will be evaluated individually. Dr. Parikh reviews your health history before clearing you for treatment.
Recovery and Aftercare
There is no downtime. Most people return to regular activity right away. Mild redness at the IV site can appear briefly. Many report a noticeable lift in energy or hydration within hours. Surgical patients often pair the drip with rest, light movement, and the recovery steps outlined by the clinic.
Cost and Financing
Pricing varies based on the infusion formula and the number of sessions recommended for your goals. IV therapy is often combined with surgical recovery plans or wellness treatments. Flexible financing options are available through programs offered at our practice.
