The Rundown On Your B12 Shot Treatment

How it works

Vitamin B12 Shots are injections that a medical professional may prescribe to treat a vitamin B12 deficiency, especially if a person’s body has difficulty absorbing the vitamin. A deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to various health problems, ranging from fatigue to permanent neurological changes. As a moderate appetite suppressant, one of the other potential benefits of B12 Shots is easier weight loss. At Skin Body Soul in Des Moines B12 Shots can be used intermittently and are a popular rejuvenation therapy for exhaustion, ‘burn out’, migraines and – of course – post-party nausea!

B12 Shot Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a Candidate for B12 Shots?

Many people are candidates for a B12 shot. Those who are over 50, smoke, abuse alcohol, have been diagnosed with diabetes, or stick to a vegetarian or vegan diet can be B12 deficient and greatly benefit from B12 shots. There are many benefits to getting B12 shots, not only for those who are deficient but for those who want to optimize their health too.

How soon will I see results?

B12 Shots work quickly; they are the most effective way for your body to absorb Vitamin B12. Within 48 to 72 hours, your body will begin to make new red blood cells. For mild deficiencies, you may need two to three injections over several weeks to notice peak impact.

Is there any downtime after a B12 Shot?

There is no downtime after a B12 Shot. The injection site area may feel a little tender, red, be swollen or slightly raised and bruising may occur.

Are B12 Shots affordable?

Our B12 Shots are $12 apiece, so our price is competitive with other medspa alternatives.
