IV vs Oral Glutathione — Bioavailability Matters
The delivery method determines whether glutathione actually works. Most patients waste money on tablets, soaps, and creams that deliver negligible systemic glutathione. Here is the science behind each method.
LFT & G6PD Screening — Safety First
DermaVue requires pre-treatment screening before starting glutathione IV therapy. This is not optional — it is a safety requirement that unregulated providers skip.
Liver Function Tests (LFT): Glutathione is metabolised by the liver. Pre-existing liver disease can be worsened by IV glutathione. LFT screens for liver enzyme levels (ALT, AST, ALP, bilirubin) before therapy begins. Patients with abnormal LFT require further evaluation before proceeding.
G6PD Screening: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency affects 2–8% of South Indian population. G6PD-deficient individuals can develop haemolytic anaemia when given high-dose glutathione or vitamin C IV. Screening is a simple blood test that prevents this rare but serious complication.
Why most providers skip this: Screening costs money and time. Unregulated glutathione providers (salons, spas, mobile services) skip screening entirely, exposing patients to avoidable risk. DermaVue’s physician-led approach prioritises patient safety over convenience.
What Glutathione Can & Cannot Do
DermaVue believes in transparent communication. Glutathione delivers real, measurable results — but it is not magic.
What it does: Gradual, whole-body skin brightening by 1–2 shades over 10–15 sessions. Reduces melanin production via tyrosinase inhibition. Liver detoxification support. Immune function enhancement. Antioxidant protection against Coimbatore’s pollution-driven oxidative stress.
What it does not do: It does not bleach skin. It does not produce dramatic overnight changes. It does not permanently alter skin colour without maintenance. It does not replace sunscreen — UV exposure reverses glutathione’s melanin suppression effect.
SPF compliance is non-negotiable: Coimbatore’s UV index (8–11 year-round) means SPF 50+ PA++++ broad-spectrum sunscreen is mandatory during and after glutathione therapy. Without it, results reverse within weeks.

Glutathione is the body’s most powerful naturally-occurring antioxidant. While skin brightening is the most visible benefit, its systemic effects are equally important.

Medical-grade IV glutathione administered under physician supervision is safe when properly pre-screened. DermaVue performs liver function tests (LFT) and G6PD screening before starting. All infusions are administered by trained staff with a physician on-site. This is fundamentally different — and safer — from unmonitored glutathione products bought online or in pharmacies.
IV glutathione delivers 100% bioavailability directly into the bloodstream. Oral tablets have 20–30% bioavailability due to intestinal breakdown. Topical soaps and creams provide negligible systemic glutathione. For measurable, documented skin brightening, IV therapy is the only clinically relevant delivery route.
The US FDA has issued warnings about unregulated glutathione injection products sold online. DermaVue uses only pharmaceutical-grade glutathione in a medically supervised, pre-screened setting. We are transparent about realistic outcomes: skin brightening by 1–2 shades over 10–15 sessions — not blanching or artificial whitening.
Visible brightness improvement: 4–6 sessions. Significant change: 10–15 sessions with weekly intervals. Darker skin tones require more sessions. Maintenance every 4–6 weeks sustains results. Sun protection (SPF 50 daily) is non-negotiable — UV exposure reverses glutathione's melanin suppression effect.
Yes. DermaVue's Complete Brightening Protocol combines IV glutathione with Q-Switched laser toning, chemical peels, and prescription tranexamic acid + kojic acid topicals. This multi-level approach achieves faster, more sustained results than any single treatment — each method targets a different level of the pigmentation cascade.
Glutathione is the body's primary intracellular antioxidant. Benefits include: liver detoxification support (hepatoprotective), immune function enhancement, reduction of oxidative stress-related fatigue (reported by many patients), and anti-ageing effects at the cellular level. Many patients notice improved energy alongside skin benefits.
Yes, with strict SPF compliance. Coimbatore's high UV index means sunscreen (SPF 50+, PA++++ broad-spectrum) is non-negotiable during and after treatment. UV exposure actively reverses the melanin suppression that glutathione produces. DermaVue includes SPF counselling as a mandatory component of all brightening protocols.
IV glutathione sessions start from ₹2,500 per session at DermaVue Coimbatore. Package deals for 10 or 20 sessions offer significant cost savings. Pre-treatment consultation (₹300) includes LFT and G6PD screening recommendation and a personalised brightening protocol.
