The difference between medical spas and regular spas is that medical spas are overseen by medical professionals and offer a wider variety of treatments than regular spas. The treatments offered at medical spas are also more involved, using the latest technology to resurface skin, rejuvenate collagen production, shed fat, and more.
Medical spas offer a variety of treatment types. As aesthetic specialists, we treat conditions like acne, acne scarring, enlarged pores, melasma, rosacea, loose skin, stretch marks, sun damage, unwanted hair, wrinkles, even excess sweating. We address these through treatments such as Botox® injections, dermal filler injections, BBL facials, laser facials, medical-grade chemical peels and more.
Med spa treatments differ from plastic surgery because they are minimally or noninvasive. While med spa treatments and plastic surgery procedures often address the same aesthetic concerns, med spa treatments offer a less aggressive approach for people who are unwilling or unable to undergo surgery.
When people consider medical spa treatments, cost and budget rank highly in the list of concerns. Drip Drop IV Hydration & Med Spa believes cost should not stand in someone's way when they're pursuing their aesthetic goals. Our pay later option offers 4 installments of interest-free payments so you can easily fit your desired treatments into your budget. This option is available to services costing as low $50.00 and up to $1500.00. Due to a deposit of 50% being required when booking, the pay later option will only come in effect when the amount after the deposit is greater than $50.00.
Here at Drip Drop we offer premier services to our clients while also offering special savings. Throughout the year, we may offer specials for a limited time at a discount. This may be advertised on our website, through Google or other social media platforms, or in person. We offer savings through our packages and memberships, which can be found under "PACKAGES/MEMBERSHIPS". We also have a reward point system. The more you shop, the more you can build up points. Various services have a set number of reward points you will receive upon purchase; once your points build up, you may redeem the set amount of points to go towards an eligible service (we don't accept partial points; total amount of points must be redeemed for selected service). If you have something special happening in your life, like a birthday/anniversary/giving birth, we may give you a special discount as well. Keep in mind that we strive to honor such special occasions but discounts are not automatic or guaranteed.
In almost no circumstances does medical insurance cover Botox® or other medical spa treatments. In certain instances, insurance may cover Botox® for sweating. You should reach out to your insurance company if you suffer from hyperhidrosis and want to seek treatment via Botox® injections. We do accept HSA and FSA.
Not just anyone who works at a med spa can perform treatments. Performing laser facials, injections, and other types of med spa treatments requires appropriate training and certification and should still be overseen by the medical professional.
No! Medical spas are not only for female patients. Men are just as susceptible to aging as women, and they're just as entitled to not be satisfied with the way they're aging. At Drip Drop IV Hydration & Med Spa, we provide a comfortable and caring environment for everyone.
We made it easy to book your appointment online and anyone is welcome to call us to book an appointment over the phone.
IV is short for intravenous (in the vein). We provide IV hydration by using a small catheter that’s placed directly into your vein. This allows us to hydrate you more effectively and efficiently than if you were to drink water. Yes, there is a small poke with a small needle, but once the vein is accessed, the needle comes out and the plastic catheter is left in its place.
IV therapy is a method to quickly administer fluids, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream. By going directly into the bloodstream, your body can absorb 100% of the vitamins; taken orally vitamins experience about 20% hydration due to the digestive tract. Our services are meant to act as supplements and not to replace oral hydration.
IV Therapy is very safe. All IV Therapy is administered by a licensed nurse and performed under a licensed medical provider and supervised by a medical doctor. Before a client receives IV therapy, their health history is evaluated. Side effects from an IV drip are generally non-existent or very mild. On occasion, you may experience some discomfort, bruising, itching, inflammation, or redness at or around the site of injection, and this could last from a few minutes to several days. However, true allergic reactions are extremely rare.

These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. All information presented here is not meant as a substitute for or alternative to information from health care practitioners.

The whole process may take 30-90 minutes to complete. There are a few forms to complete prior to your infusion as well as a quick medical assessment.
The frequency of IV therapy is determined on a client-by-client basis. We take a customized approach to suit your individual needs. For preventative health and wellness, we recommend two IV drips per month to start out with to help balance out any vitamin deficiencies, but one drip a month is usually sufficient enough for maintenance.
Our bodies need a consistent amount of vitamins and minerals to promote homeostasis and optimal health. Vitamin deficiencies can contribute to a variety of acute and long-term conditions. Antioxidants are an essential part of maintaining a healthy immune system, detoxifying your body and removing free radicals that can contribute to cellular damage. Antioxidants also play a role in energy production.

Unfortunately, we won't be able to perform any IV/IM services without a doctor's order if you are pregnant.
People with kidney and active liver disease should be treated with extreme caution. People with congestive heart failure or end stage renal disease have potential for serious harm from receiving fluids.
Certain IV treatments may require blood testing; however, the majority of commonly administered IV treatments using water-soluble nutrients do not require blood testing prior to the appointment.
Clients with renal or hepatic conditions may require blood testing to confirm they are healthy enough to receive an IV cocktail.
Blood work is required if injectable vitamin D3 (IM only) is administered as part of the treatment to confirm vitamin D levels prior to supplementation and to prevent toxicity. Blood testing also helps to rule out other sources of vitamin D3 the patient may be taking. The most common test administered is the 25-hydroxy vitamin D test.
We recommend talking to your doctor first as there may be something more serious and acute going on. Although IV nutrients/minerals are generally safe, they aren't to be substituted in the place of seeing your doctor or going to the Urgent Care/ER in the case of an emergency. In certain cases, like dehydration or hang-over relief, we can provide IV Hydration, but usually we recommend IV Hydration as an addition to your lifestyle to maintain/improve your wellness, not to treat a condition.
To have a safe and effective IV therapy session, it is important that you adhere to the following pre- and post-visit instructions.
Before your appointment:
- Make sure all forms and consents have been completed electronically prior to your visit.
- Please plan to be at the spa for 1-2 hrs in the event we have delays with obtaining IV access and/or the infusions takes longer than expected to fully drip.
- Try to drink some fluids, especially water, prior to service to help with successfully obtaining venous access.
- You can take your regular medications as normal on the day of treatment. If possible, try to avoid taking any over-the-counter antihistamines or decongestants on the day of your appointment. Many of these over-the-counter drugs such as Sudafed PE contain vasoconstriction medications that cause your blood vessels to constrict making it difficult to get an IV injection.
- DO NOT HOLD ANY BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICATIONS PRIOR TO YOUR INFUISION. IF YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE IS ELEVATED AT THE TIME OF THE SERVICE, YOU MAY NOT RECIEVE IV HYDRATION AND YOU WILL HAVE TO RESCHEDULE. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS UNFORTUNATELY.
After your IV infusion:
- Continue to wear dressing applied to the IV infusion site for 1 hour to prevent break through bleeding.
- You can apply cold packs or take naproxen (Aleve) for any post injection/infusion pain if not contraindicated.
- A light meal and 16 ounces of water are recommended after the infusion. If enough water is not
consumed, you many experience any of the following symptoms: headaches, nausea, joint pain, blurred vision, cramping (GI and/or muscular), mental confusion or disorientation.
- Monitor your IV site for redness, pain, warmth, or swelling. This could be a sign of infection or an adverse reaction. If this occurs, please call Drip Drop IV Hydration & Med Spa; (478) 333-1092.
- Continue routine follow up with your mental health and/or primary care provider for continued treatment and evaluation for your chronic conditions.
- If any mild side effects occur such as hives, nausea, fever, cramping, headaches, or any additional non-life-threatening symptoms, please call Drip Drop IV Hydration & Med Spa; (478) 333-1092 immediately. If it is after hours, then please report to your closest urgent care or emergency department.
- If any type of serious adverse events occurs such as diffuse hives, shortness of breath, trouble swallowing, chest pain, severe headache, changes in consciousness, increase pain/swelling in the arm that the infusion was given in, or anything else that is concerning, call 911 or report to the emergency department immediately.
- You can expect to feel improvements in your symptoms within 15-90 minutes of your infusion. These length of these effects can very per person (a few days to a few weeks).
- Most clients experience significant overall improvements:
*Better energy
*Better mental clarity
*Improved sleep
*Improvement of their complaints
*Overall feelings of well being
- Clients commonly report one of the two patterns after IV Vitamin Therapy Infusion:
*Clients generally feel better right away. Due to a busy lifestyle, many people are chronically dehydrated and deficient in vitamins and minerals causing them not to feel well. Once the client is hydrated and the nutrients are replaced, their symptoms improve quickly.
*Clients feel tired or unwell. These clients are generally in the process of detoxifying. When toxins
are pulled out of tissues, they re-enter the blood stream. They remain poisons, but they are now on their way OUT instead of on their way IN. Even when clients do not feel well at this stage, the process is one of healing and cleansing. After this period, an overall improvement in ones sense of well-being is generally reported.
- Clients can present for repeat infusions every 2-3 weeks unless determined otherwise by your treating provider.
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to Drip Drop IV Hydration & Med Spa; (478) 333-1092.
