White Jade ’Shiratama’ Drip (Glutathione Drip)
White Jade ’Shiratama’ drip (glutathione drip) is an aesthetic IV drip formulated mainly with glutathione, which has antioxidant properties. At our clinic in the Minato-ku Tamachi area, we provide White Jade ’Shiratama’ drip (glutathione drip) with an emphasis on safety, administered under the supervision of a dermatologist.
White Jade ’Shiratama’ drip may be used not only for cosmetic purposes but also to help support the body’s antioxidant balance in modern life, where factors such as UV exposure, stress, and fatigue can have an impact.
What Is White Jade ’Shiratama’ Drip (Glutathione Drip)?
White Jade ’Shiratama’ drip is a type of aesthetic IV drip that administers glutathione intravenously. In aesthetic dermatology, it may be used as a supplementary treatment for purposes such as skin clarity care and dullness management.
However, the appropriate treatment varies depending on the type of pigmentation spot. For conditions such as melasma, freckles, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, oral treatment, topical treatment, or laser treatment may be more suitable. At our clinic, we recommend the appropriate treatment method after a consultation.
What Is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine, and is an antioxidant substance widely present in the body.
It is thought that the amount of glutathione in the body decreases due to factors such as aging, UV exposure, stress, and lifestyle habits. Supplementing glutathione through an IV drip is expected to help support antioxidant function.
*Effects vary from person to person.
What Is Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)?
Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is a water-soluble vitamin with antioxidant properties, known to help support collagen synthesis and to be involved in the melanin production process.
Because vitamin C cannot be synthesized in the body, it must be obtained through diet or other sources. An IV drip can temporarily achieve a higher blood concentration than oral intake.
In aesthetic dermatology, it may be combined as a supplementary treatment for conditions such as melasma, freckles, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
*Effects vary from person to person.

Q
Can pigmentation spots be eliminated with ‘Shiratama’ drip alone?

There are various types of pigmentation spots, including melasma, freckles, solar lentigines, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, each with different causes and suitable treatment methods.
‘Shiratama’ drip is a treatment that helps support antioxidant activity, but depending on the type of pigmentation spot, topical treatment, oral treatment, or laser treatment may be more suitable.
Q
How many treatments are needed to see effects from ‘Shiratama’ drip?
A
The way effects of ‘Shiratama’ drip are felt varies from person to person. Some people notice changes in their physical condition or skin after just one treatment, but it is generally said that many people notice changes after continuing for several sessions.
