Quick answer
What are vitamin injections?
Vitamin injections deliver vitamins such as B-complex, B12 and vitamin C directly into a muscle or vein, bypassing the digestive system. They are often used in Korea to help with fatigue, jet lag and low energy, and as a supportive treatment for skin health.
They are a simple add-on during a visit to Seoul and can be paired with skin treatments. For a higher dose of vitamin C by drip, see vitamin C IV therapy. Benefits vary, and they do not replace a balanced diet or medical care for deficiencies.
