A Cinderella injection is an intravenous (IV) antioxidant infusion whose signature ingredient is alpha-lipoic acid, also called thioctic acid. In Korea it is one of a family of popular IV drips nicknamed for a fresh, rested look, and it is often combined with vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and other supportive antioxidants. The infusion is delivered slowly into a forearm vein, typically over about 15 to 60 minutes per session.
Alpha-lipoic acid is unusual because it works in both water-based and fat-based parts of cells, and it helps regenerate other antioxidants such as vitamin C and glutathione. Patients choose the drip as a supportive, wellness-oriented treatment aimed at overall skin tone, radiance, and a feeling of being refreshed, rather than as a substitute for topical skincare or in-clinic device and injectable treatments.
At Reberry Clinic, this drip is consultation-led and evidence-honest. Our Myeongdong (Seoul) location is at 5, Myeongdong 10-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul, about 5 minutes from Myeongdong Station, and international patients are supported in English. Dr. Seung Jae Baek, Medical Director, and the clinic’s doctors review your history first, because an IV drip is a medical procedure, not a cosmetic add-on.
The Cinderella drip delivers alpha-lipoic (thioctic) acid directly into the bloodstream, which produces markedly higher plasma antioxidant levels than an oral capsule, because intravenous delivery bypasses the limits of intestinal absorption. Once circulating, alpha-lipoic acid neutralises reactive oxygen species and helps recycle vitamin C and glutathione back to their active forms, so a blended drip is designed to support several antioxidant pathways at once. The most studied IV dosing range for alpha-lipoic acid sits around 300 to 600 mg per session, and Cinderella blends commonly add vitamin C, whose intravenous peak can be several-fold higher than the same oral dose. Because antioxidant effects on skin tone are gradual and cumulative, the drip is planned as a course of roughly 5 to 10 weekly sessions with occasional maintenance, rather than a single infusion. Our doctors set the exact blend, dose, and rate after reviewing your health, and monitor you during the infusion, since IV therapy carries medical considerations that a consultation is meant to catch.

See representative outcomes from Reberry Clinic. Results build gradually and vary by individual; your plan is assessed at consultation.
At our Myeongdong location, the clinic’s doctors review your health and expectations in English, and confirm whether an antioxidant drip suits you.
A forearm line is placed and the drip runs slowly, so each visit usually takes about 15 to 60 minutes of restful infusion time.
The drip is planned as a course, commonly around 5 to 10 weekly sessions, rather than as a single infusion.
Any change in radiance or tone is gradual and cumulative, building across the course rather than after one visit.
Because effects are supportive, occasional maintenance drips plus daily sun protection and skincare help sustain the refreshed look.
A Cinderella injection is an intravenous antioxidant drip built around alpha-lipoic (thioctic) acid, often blended with vitamin C, infused over about 15 to 60 minutes. It is a supportive, wellness-oriented drip aimed at radiance and a refreshed look. You can see our broader menu on the injection treatment page.
It is not a whitening cure, and results are subtle and gradual rather than dramatic. Alpha-lipoic acid provides antioxidant support, and any tone change depends on skincare, sun habits, and sessions completed. Evidence for IV brightening is limited, so our doctors keep expectations honest and frame it as supportive care.
The signature ingredient is alpha-lipoic (thioctic) acid, typically around 300 to 600 mg, and Cinderella blends commonly add vitamin C and supportive antioxidants. The exact blend is set by the clinic’s doctors after reviewing your health, since dose and rate are individualised rather than fixed for everyone.
A single session usually takes about 15 to 60 minutes while the drip infuses slowly through a forearm line. You can rest during the infusion, and most people return to normal activity straight afterward. Timing depends on the blend and the rate your doctor sets for you.
Most patients follow a course of roughly 5 to 10 weekly sessions, then occasional maintenance, because antioxidant effects are cumulative rather than immediate. The exact number depends on your goals and response, which the clinic’s doctors review as you progress through the course.
Discomfort is usually limited to the small pinch of placing the forearm cannula, and the infusion itself is generally comfortable. Some people notice mild coolness or a taste sensation as the drip runs. Staff monitor you throughout, and you can raise any discomfort during the session.
There is usually no meaningful downtime beyond possible mild tenderness or bruising at the infusion site. Most patients resume their day immediately, which makes the drip convenient during a short Seoul trip. Your doctor will flag anything specific to your blend before you start the session.
Any effect on radiance is gradual and cumulative, building across the course rather than after a single visit. Some patients feel refreshed early on, but visible tone changes, where they occur, tend to appear over several weekly sessions. This is why the drip is planned as a course, not a one-off.
Effects are supportive and not a one-time fix, so they fade without upkeep. Occasional maintenance drips, plus daily sun protection and consistent skincare, help sustain a refreshed look. Because antioxidant support is ongoing by nature, longevity depends heavily on your habits between sessions.
Yes, many patients pair the drip with in-clinic skin treatments for a broader plan, since it is adjunctive rather than a standalone transformation. It can sit alongside other injection treatments your doctor recommends. Sequencing and spacing are planned so nothing overloads your skin or schedule.
IV therapy is a medical procedure with real considerations, so safety depends on proper screening and monitoring rather than being risk-related to zero. Possible effects include infusion-site pain, bruising, or dizziness. A consultation checks your history, and our doctors monitor you during the drip to keep it appropriately safe.
People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have blood-sugar or kidney concerns, or a known allergy to ingredients should avoid it without medical clearance. The clinic’s doctors screen for these at consultation. If a drip is not suitable, they can suggest alternatives from our skin care options.
Many patients choose it as a general antioxidant and wellness drip rather than purely for skin, though wellness effects are subjective and vary from person to person. Alpha-lipoic acid and vitamin C are antioxidants, but the drip is not a treatment for any disease, so your doctor sets realistic, honest expectations first. See our glass facial skin options too.
The drip is systemic rather than surface-based, so skin type matters less than your overall health and medical history. All backgrounds are welcome, and antioxidant support is not tied to a specific skin tone. Your doctor tailors the blend and dose to you, not to a fixed template.
It is available at our Myeongdong (Seoul) location, at 5, Myeongdong 10-gil, Jung-gu, about 5 minutes from Myeongdong Station, with English-speaking support. You can plan your visit around the drip and other treatments; see the injection treatment page to start.
A single drip needs only a short visit, but a full course of weekly sessions is usually spread across several weeks. Many international patients start the course in Seoul and continue on return trips. Our English-speaking team helps schedule sessions around your travel and other appointments.
Yes, flying the same day or next day is generally fine, since the drip is non-surgical and low-downtime. Cabin air is drying, so hydrate and protect treated skin from sun. If you feel lightheaded after any infusion, rest before travelling and mention it to your doctor.
You can complete part of a course in Seoul and continue supportive care at home, and the clinic offers English check-ins between visits. A consistent skin care routine helps sustain any radiance gains. Your treatment notes are kept on file so the plan stays consistent across trips.
