NAD Injections in Mt. Pleasant, SC
At Contour Aesthetics + Wellness, our NAD injections are administered by experienced medical professionals who tailor the treatment to your unique needs. The injections are designed to provide a high dose of NAD directly into the body, ensuring maximum absorption and efficacy. This treatment may help improve mental clarity, boost energy levels, enhance mood, support addiction recovery, and promote overall wellness.
What is NAD?
NAD is a coenzyme that is found in all living cells and is a derivative of B3. NAD helps to support the mitochondria of the cell, playing a crucial role in the overall health of the cell, energy production, gene regulation, and DNA repair. As we age, our NAD levels decrease. NAD also decreases in certain disease states. Deficiency in NAD has been known to correlate with neuronal degeneration.
What is recovery like and are there any side effects?
There is no downtime after the NAD injection. Rarely, patients may experience mild side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or a headache. These symptoms are brief and short lived.
How often should I get NAD?
We will work with you to create a personalized protocol for NAD injections. Once NAD levels are at a therapeutic level, injections will be given weekly or monthly.
How does NAD work?
NAD can help improve energy levels and mental clarity. NAD supplementation can also be cardioprotective and have antiaging components.
Am I a good candidate for NAD?
It is recommended to start NAD around the age of 40 for anti aging benefits. By the age of 40, our NAD has declined by 50% and will continue to do so as we age. When used for anti-aging, NAD can aid in healthy mitochondria, preventing DNA damage, and protecting our cells from free radical damage. Your clinician will discuss your goals with you to determine if you are a good candidate.
Good candidates include:
- Individuals experiencing fatigue or low energy levels
- Those looking to improve mental clarity and cognitive function
- Individuals dealing with chronic stress or anxiety
- People recovering from addiction or seeking support in addiction recovery
- Individuals looking to slow down the aging process
- Those experiencing symptoms of depression
- Athletes or active individuals seeking enhanced performance and faster recovery
- Anyone looking to boost their overall health and vitality
What are the benefits?
The response to NAD varies from person to person. Generally speaking, patients that supplement with NAD report having less fatigue, more mental clarify, and report feeling better.
