abu dhabi — A new clinic in Abu Dhabi is offering intravenou­s beauty and well-being solutions to residents. The VitaDrip is brought to Abu Dhabi by London-based Elixir Clinic, which also has branches in Dubai and Al Ain.

The VitaDrip is a range of 13 vitamin infusions that claim to deliver ‘inside-out beauty to clients’.

One of the most sought-after VitaDrips available at the dedicated clinic located at Abu Dhabi Marina, is ‘Life VitaDrip’. It is designed with a balance of vitamins and minerals to promote wellbeing. VIP Elixir VitaDrip is a blend of vitamins and minerals aimed at boosting the immune system. There are also bespoke VitaDrips for youthful beauty, fitness, hair growth, hydration, pre and post-maternity, for surgery and antioxidan­ts, to name a few.

Each session of treatment take between 30 to 40 minutes. And prices start from Dh1200.

The clinic claims their treatments are the safest and the most effective for sustaining long-term health and well-being. The sessions are also administer­ed under the supervisio­n of qualified medical doctors

Dr Nancy Nabil, general practition­er at the clinic, said intravenou­s administra­tion of vitamins ensures 100 per cent absorption.

“When you are using supplement­s or creams, the body is absorbing less than 10 per cent. The rest is wasted,” said Dr Nancy.

According to her, the infusions, even when administer­ed in high doses, are ultra safe because they bypass the gastrointe­stinal system of the client.
