You may have heard about advanced IV drips for anti-aging, energy, or regeneration, but the names can sound complicated.
What’s the Difference in Simple Terms?
Let’s explain them in a very simple way.
Simple explanation:
Protection against daily cellular stress.

2. High-Dose Glutathione IV “Master antioxidant”
What Is High-Dose Glutathione IV Therapy?
Glutathione is a tripeptide made from glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine. Together, these amino acids promote immune support, reduce melanin formation, and assist in collagen production.
Because natural glutathione levels decline with age, regular glutathione iv infusion helps combat stress, fatigue, and visible skin concerns. Patients often choose this treatment at wellness centers for both beauty enhancement and internal health.
Glutathione is a natural antioxidant made in the body.
It helps:
-
Reduce oxidative stress
-
Support detox processes
-
Promote clearer, brighter-looking skin
Simple explanation:
Your body’s internal cleansing support.

3. NAD+ IV “Energy for your cells”
What is NAD+?
NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is a substance essential for energy production and cell repair. NAD+ is a coenzyme that helps with chemical changes in cells and functions to convert nutrients from food into energy. It is also involved in processes that maintain cell health and function, and a decrease in NAD+ can lead to aging and disease progression. The decline in physical strength and metabolism that comes with aging is partly related to the fact that NAD+ decreases with age. It is said that by age 60, the amount of NAD+ in the body is reduced to about half of what it was at age 30.
“NAD+ IV therapy,” which supplements NAD+ externally, is attracting attention as a next-generation anti-aging therapy aimed at recovering from damage caused by aging and stress, and “rejuvenating from within the body.”
By raising NAD+ levels in the body through NAD+ IV therapy, not only can you expect to increase energy metabolism, enhancing physical strength and concentration, but it is also said to have positive benefits for skin and overall beauty aspects. It is a recommended treatment for those who “want to stay young and healthy forever” or “want to maintain concentration to work on jobs or studies.”
NAD+ is a natural substance already found inside your body. It helps your cells:
- Produce energy
- Repair damage
- Support brain function
- Slow down aging processes
As we get older, NAD levels decrease.
An NAD IV drip gives your body this molecule directly.
People usually choose NAD if they:
- Feel tired or burned out
- Have brain fog
- Want anti-aging support
- Need recovery after stress
Simple explanation:
NAD is like recharging your internal battery.

4. NMN IV “Helps your body make NAD”
NMN is not NAD itself.
It is something your body uses to create NAD.
So instead of giving energy directly, it gives your body the ingredient to make it.
What is NMN?
NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) is a vitamin-like compound that our bodies produce naturally and is a precursor to NAD+. When NMN enters the body, it is converted to NAD+ through several enzymatic reactions.
Incidentally, foods high in NMN include edamame, broccoli, and cucumber, but in the case of broccoli, to consume 100mg of NMN per day, about 40kg (approximately 2000 florets) would be needed.
People usually choose NMN if they:
- Are focused on long-term anti-aging
- Want metabolic or wellness support
- Prefer gradual optimization
Simple explanation:
NMN is like giving your body the materials to recharge itself.

5. Exosome IV “Signals your body to repair”
Exosomes are tiny particles that help cells communicate with each other.
What is Exosome Infusion?
Exosome infusion involves injecting exosomes directly via IV to help maintain and regenerate vascular functions. Exosomes are capsule-like substances secreted by stem cells and are responsible for intercellular communication. Often called “messenger substances between organs,” they travel throughout the body via blood and help facilitate communication between distant cells. In our bodies, various cells release exosomes that aid tissue repair and regeneration. However, as stem cells decrease with age, so does exosome production.
Exosome infusion compensates for this decline by supplying exosomes externally, which supports the activation of somatic stem cells and delivers anti-inflammatory and tissue-repair benefits.
They don’t become new cells.
Instead, they send signals that tell your body:
- Repair tissue
- Reduce inflammation
- Support skin and hair health
- Improve recovery
People usually choose Exosomes if they:
- Want skin rejuvenation
- Are recovering from procedures
- Are interested in regenerative treatments
Simple explanation:
Exosomes are like messengers telling your body to heal and refresh.

6. Stem Cell IV “Regenerative cells”
Stem cells are special cells that can develop into different types of cells in the body.
This is considered a more advanced regenerative therapy. Stem cell treatments are more complex and strictly regulated depending on the country.
What is Auto Adipose- Derivered Stem Cell IV Therapy?
Autologous adipose-derived stem cell infusion is a regenerative therapy that involves harvesting stem cells from a patient’s own fat tissue, expanding them in culture, and administering them intravenously to support tissue repair and help modulate inflammation. This treatment aims to improve chronic pain (lasting from several months to years). In addition to enhancing quality of life by reducing physical discomfort, combining this therapy with aesthetic medical treatments may provide synergistic benefits for the skin. A key feature of this approach is its ability to harness the regenerative potential of stem cells, with the goal of supporting both health and beauty from within.
People usually consider Stem Cells for:
- Advanced regenerative support
- Tissue repair
- Specialized medical needs
Simple explanation:
Stem cells are like the body’s raw building blocks.

Quick Comparison
| Treatment | Think of it as… | Main Focus |
|---|---|---|
| NAD | Charging your battery | Energy & brain clarity |
| NMN | Materials to recharge | Long-term wellness |
| Exosome | Repair signals | Skin & recovery |
| Stem Cell | Building blocks | Advanced regeneration |
| Vitamin C | Daily protection | Brightness & immunity |
| Glutathione | Internal antioxidant | Detox & glow |
Which One Should You Choose?
It depends on your goal:
-
Low energy? → NAD
-
Preventative anti-aging? → NMN
-
Skin repair & recovery? → Exosomes
-
Advanced regenerative care? → Stem Cells
-
Brighter skin & immune support? → Vitamin C
-
Detox & antioxidant boost? → Glutathione
Each works differently. They are not interchangeable.
