Why have Biotin Injections?

​

Biotin, also known as B7 or vitamin H, is a type of B complex vitamin that occurs naturally in a variety of foods, such as egg yolks, milk and dairy, legumes, nuts, avocados, bananas and organ meats like liver.  Biotin helps support a healthy nervous system and improves the basic protein that makes up hair, skin and nails. This is why Biotin is known to help with hair growth and improve the general health of hair, skin and nails. It is also an important part of how enzymes in the body break down substances like fats, protein and carbohydrates into energy.

 

Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin; therefore, it is not easily stored in the body. Any excess is passed through your system, and regular intake is required to avoid deficiency due to its transient nature. Biotin can be taken in tablet form or given intra-muscularly as an injection. Most supplements are not effectively absorbed by our bodies through ingestion and intramuscular Biotin injections have been more effective in increasing Biotin levels in many patients.

 

Correct dosages of Biotin supplementation have shown to increase hair growth, hair structure and thickness, as well as decrease hair loss. Higher doses of Biotin have also resulted in significant nail health improvement. Studies have shown that those who take a Biotin supplement can thicken their nails by up to 25 percent and decrease the amount of nail splitting and breakage they endure.  There are also numerous anecdotal (not scientifically proven) reports from both males and females stating that an unexpected side effect (or benefit) of Biotin, was that it noticeably improved their libido.
