Glutathione Skin Whitening | Dr Dheeraj Bhar, Cosmetic & Aesthetic Surgeon, London

Glutathione is an antioxidant made from glycine, glutamic acid and cysteine. Scientist consider it to be one of the most powerful antioxidants.

What to Expect

Intravenous glutathione injections is said to be very effective and gives faster results. This is because the injection gets 100% into your bloodstream.

It is also a powerful antioxidant that evens out skin and gives it a glow.

Taking high doses of vitamin C for skin whitening is very effective and good for the skin. It can help lighten the skin over time by removing toxins; help heal wounds and clear blemishes.

The reason why glutathione skin whitening injections are given with vitamin C is because vitamin C helps keep glutathione in its most active form and also eliminate that which has already been oxidized to an insoluble form.

Other than being a great antioxidant, vitamin C has been scientifically proven to raise the levels of glutathione in the body. This is the basis on which glutathione with vitamin C skin whitening injections are used today for enhanced results.

Is Laser Skin Whitening For You?

Melanin is the pigment that determines skin color. The melanin is there for a reason.

When you are exposed to the sun, more melanin is produced. This is to absorb the UV radiation and to protect the skin cells from damage. This is why you get a tan when you are out in the sun for a long time. Dark-skinned people have more melanin than fair-skinned ones. The drawback here is that those who have lighter skin are more prone to getting sunburned or skin cancer.

Glutathione works in a very simple way, yet other skin whitening products can’t compete with the all-natural amino acid compound. Simply put, Glutathione works to clear the body of free radicals and toxins that can lead to serious skin problems like hyper-pigmentation and melasma, as well as more common ones like sun spots.

While Glutathione is most commonly used by women looking to whiten their skin, it may have a beneficial effect for women that have cystic acne, acne-prone skin or even the occasional breakout.
