How much does IV therapy cost in Lima 2026?

At Elyzea: Vitamin C IV S/250 (~$71 USD), Vitamin cocktail S/280 (~$80 USD), Rejuvenation cocktail S/300 (~$86 USD). Each session lasts 30–45 minutes. In the US, an equivalent IV infusion runs $200–$500. No mandatory packages — pay per session.

Which IV type should I choose?

Vitamin C ($71) for immunity, skin glow, and post-procedure recovery. Vitamin cocktail ($80) with B-complex, magnesium, and zinc for energy and overall wellness. Rejuvenation cocktail ($86) with glutathione, vitamin C, and alpha-lipoic acid for anti-aging. Consultation determines which fits your specific goal.

Is IV therapy safe? Are there side effects?

Yes, in medical hands at standard doses. Dr. Geldres supervises all infusions. Possible side effects: minor bruising or discomfort at injection site, transient metallic taste (vitamin C), brief facial flushing. Contraindications: severe renal insufficiency, decompensated heart disease, allergy to any component — ruled out at consultation.

Does IV therapy help with weight loss or detox?

No. The honest framing: IV therapy is supportive, not transformative. It does not produce dramatic weight loss. It does not 'detoxify' beyond what your liver and kidneys already do — those organs are the natural detoxifiers. It does accelerate hydration recovery (jet lag, post-exercise), boost vitamin levels in deficiency, and support immune function as adjunct therapy.

When will I see results?

Many patients report increased energy and wellness from the same session. Skin glow: 24–72 hours post vitamin C or glutathione infusion. Immunity and fatigue recovery: cumulative effect from session 2–3 onward. For sustained results, the initial saturation protocol (4 weekly sessions) maximizes benefit.

Does IV therapy complement aesthetic treatments?

Yes — it's an excellent complement. Before laser or peels: vitamin C prepares the skin and accelerates recovery. After HIFU or Morpheus8: the rejuvenation cocktail enhances collagen production. With biostimulators: glutathione and vitamin C complement the anti-aging effect.

Who supervises IV therapy at Elyzea?

Dr. Geldres, board-certified plastic surgeon, supervises all IV infusions. This is not a spa service — it's IV medicine with medical protocol. Selection of the IV type, dose, and duration is calibrated to your specific case after clinical evaluation. The infusion is performed in a comfortable environment with monitoring throughout.

How long is a session and what should I expect?

Each session takes 30 to 45 minutes in a comfortable, relaxing environment. Peripheral catheter insertion, controlled drip infusion, vital sign monitoring. You can read, use your phone, or simply relax during the infusion. After the session you can resume normal activities immediately — no downtime.

IV Therapy Cost in Lima, Peru 2026: Vitamin Infusion Prices

Q: Why IV instead of oral supplements?

IV delivers 100% of the nutrient to the bloodstream, vs 10–25% for oral. It enables concentrations impossible orally — up to 100x higher for vitamin C. Immediate effect (energy and wellness from the session). No GI side effects. Ideal for demonstrable deficiencies or when rapid bioavailability is needed.

Q: How often should I do IV therapy?

Initial phase: 1 session weekly for 4 weeks to saturate levels. Maintenance: 1 session every 2–4 weeks based on goals and lifestyle. Situational: individual sessions before important events, during high stress, or post-travel. Each session takes 30–45 minutes.

IV vitamin therapy has become one of the most requested treatments at Elyzea — and it’s easy to see why. Immediate results in energy, skin radiance, and immunity, all in a 30 to 45-minute session. In the US, a single IV infusion runs $200 to $500. At Elyzea in Lima, prices start at just $71 USD. Here’s the complete breakdown.

Why IV Instead of Oral Supplements?

This is the most common question, and the answer is compelling:

100% absorption: IV delivery sends nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Oral supplements max out at 10–25% absorption
Therapeutic concentrations: IV allows concentrations impossible to achieve orally — up to 100x higher for vitamin C
Immediate effects: Many patients report increased energy and wellbeing from the same session
No GI side effects: High-dose oral vitamin C causes diarrhea; IV delivery has zero gastrointestinal effects

Maintenance: 1 session every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on your goals and lifestyle
Situational: Individual sessions before important events, during high-stress periods, or after travel
Session duration: 30 to 45 minutes in a comfortable, relaxing environment

IV therapy at Elyzea — what it actually does and doesn't

IV therapy ("sueroterapia") delivers vitamins, antioxidants, and hydration directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the gut absorption variability of oral supplementation. The honest framing: IV therapy is supportive, not transformative. It accelerates hydration recovery (jet lag, hangover, post-exercise depletion), boosts vitamin C and B-complex levels in cases of demonstrable deficiency, and supports skin and immune function as adjunct therapy. It does not "detoxify" beyond what your liver and kidneys already do, it does not produce dramatic weight loss, and it is not a substitute for treating underlying medical conditions. At Elyzea, the formulations are evidence-based, dosing is transparent, and the consultation evaluates whether IV therapy fits your specific goal — vs whether oral supplementation, dietary change, or other modalities would be more appropriate.

Why Elyzea is different in Lima

Three things separate Elyzea from most aesthetic-medicine providers operating in Lima and across Latin America. First, we use real, manufacturer-genuine equipment — not the Chinese imitations sold under similar-sounding brand names that flood the regional market. Whether the procedure involves a HIFU platform, a CO₂ laser, a Morpheus8 unit, a picosecond laser, or any other technology, the device is the genuine FDA-cleared (or equivalent) product, with manufacturer service contracts and original consumables. Second, an MD anesthesiologist is on-site for procedures that require it. Topical numbing alone is inadequate for many protocols at the depth or energy that actually delivers results; on-site anesthesia means we can run the protocol as designed without forcing patients to grit through pain or quietly reducing energy mid-procedure. Third, a full clinical setup includes a treatment room, an anesthesia bay with proper emergency equipment, a private recovery room where patients can decompress 30–60 minutes before leaving, and a dispensary that stocks post-procedure care products. Not a single-bed spa room.

For patients flying to Lima from the US, Canada, Europe, or other Latin American countries, this clinical infrastructure is the prerequisite — not a marketing add-on. When you're a medical tourist, you don't have a local primary-care doctor and you don't have family in the same time zone. The clinic itself has to be capable of handling whatever happens during and after the procedure, in real time.
