With a strong foundation in aesthetic excellence and surgical precision, we’re proud to offer NAD+ Injection Therapy—a cutting-edge wellness treatment designed to enhance your energy, optimize recovery, and support healthy aging at the cellular level. Administered under the careful supervision of our board-certified physicians, NAD+ therapy offers a trusted, medical-grade approach to functional wellness.
The Science Behind NAD+
NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a powerful coenzyme found in every cell of your body. It’s essential for energy production, cellular repair, brain health, and metabolic function. Unfortunately, NAD+ levels begin to decline in your late 20s—dropping significantly by middle age—and this decline can lead to fatigue, slower recovery, mental fog, and visible signs of aging. Restoring NAD+ helps rejuvenate your body from the inside out, boosting vitality and resilience.
How Does NAD+ Decline With Age?
NAD+ levels naturally decrease with age, contributing to many of the physical and cognitive signs of aging. According to research published in Cell Metabolism and other peer-reviewed journals, NAD+ levels can drop by as much as 50% by age 40–50, continuing to decline further with each passing decade.
This decrease affects:
- Mitochondrial function, which impacts energy and fatigue
- DNA repair efficiency, leading to cellular aging
- Cognitive performance, including memory and focus
- Skin regeneration and collagen production
- Metabolic rate and weight regulation
NAD+ Injection Therapy aims to restore these declining levels, helping to reverse the effects of aging at a cellular level and support longevity, energy, and recovery.
What Is NAD+ Injection Therapy?
NAD+ therapy involves subcutaneous injections that deliver pharmaceutical-grade NAD+ directly into the body. Unlike oral supplements that must pass through the digestive system or time-consuming IV infusions, injections offer quick, convenient, and highly bioavailable delivery in just minutes.
What Does It Treat?
NAD+ therapy supports a variety of mental, physical, and aesthetic concerns, including:
- Chronic fatigue or burnout
- Brain fog or memory issues
- Slowed metabolism and weight gain
- Post-surgical or post-treatment recovery
- Mood imbalance and stress response
- Skin aging and loss of elasticity
- Inflammation and oxidative stress
