Are you constantly feeling fatigued, mentally foggy, or just not performing at your best, physically or emotionally? The solution could be more cellular than you think. At Iconic Skin Clinic, we are committed to offering innovative wellness treatments that go beyond skin-deep, helping you optimize your health from the inside out. One such powerful treatment is NAD shots—a cutting-edge therapy designed to restore cellular function, increase energy, and enhance mental clarity.
Supervised by our experienced medical professional, Dr. Arpita Devani, D.O., our clinics in La Mirada, Placentia, and Downey, CA, are proud to offer this revitalizing treatment in a comfortable and personalized setting.
What Is NAD?
NAD stands for Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide, a coenzyme found in all living cells. It's essential for producing energy, repairing DNA, supporting the immune system, and regulating aging processes. NAD exists in two forms—NAD+ (oxidized) and NADH (reduced)—and plays a pivotal role in converting food into usable cellular energy via the mitochondria.
Over time, due to stress, aging, chronic illness, and environmental factors, our natural NAD levels decline. This depletion can lead to:
- Persistent fatigue
- Poor focus and memory
- Slower metabolism
- Mood imbalances
- Accelerated aging
By replenishing NAD levels through supplementation, particularly via NAD injections or NAD shots, you can rejuvenate your cells, slow down aging, and significantly enhance your overall vitality.

What Are NAD Shots?
NAD shots are intramuscular injections that deliver a high concentration of NAD+ directly into your bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for rapid absorption and bioavailability. Unlike oral supplements, which are often poorly absorbed, NAD injections provide immediate and noticeable benefits, especially when administered regularly as part of a holistic wellness routine.
Benefits of NAD Shots at a Glance:
- Increased energy and endurance
- Enhanced mental clarity and focus
- Improved mood and emotional resilience
- Better sleep quality
- DNA repair and cellular regeneration
- Slower signs of aging
- Reduced brain fog and improved memory
- Support in addiction recovery and withdrawal symptoms
How Do NAD Shots Work?
When administered, NAD+ travels directly into your bloodstream and into your cells, where it becomes the fuel for mitochondrial function—the powerhouse of the cell. This infusion of energy helps kickstart cellular repair mechanisms, improve metabolic functions, and activate enzymes like sirtuins, which are associated with longevity and reduced inflammation.
According to a study published in Nature Communications, boosting NAD+ levels in mice increased their lifespan and improved cognitive and muscular function, promising evidence that has inspired similar human trials. Read more from the National Library of Medicine on NAD and aging here.
Who Can Benefit from NAD Shots?
NAD shots are highly beneficial for a wide range of individuals. Whether you're a busy professional, an athlete, or someone recovering from chronic fatigue, NAD therapy may offer the relief and performance boost you need.
Ideal candidates include:
- Individuals over the age of 30 experiencing low energy
- People struggling with brain fog or memory issues
- Those seeking anti-aging or longevity therapies
- Patients undergoing detoxification from substance abuse
- Athletes needing enhanced physical recovery
- Individuals with chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia
- Anyone looking to enhance mental clarity and resilience
At Iconic Skin Clinic, we customize your NAD shot plan to align with your lifestyle, goals, and wellness needs.
NAD Shots vs. NAD IV Therapy
You may have heard of NAD IV therapy, another popular method of NAD+ delivery. While both treatments offer substantial benefits, NAD shots are an excellent alternative for people who:
- Prefer quicker appointments
- Dislike IV drips
- Are looking for cost-effective maintenance therapy
- Want a more convenient option during a busy week
NAD shots can be administered in a matter of minutes, with no downtime, making them ideal for those on the go. They can also be used as part of a comprehensive IV and injection plan for even more potent results. Contact us to learn more.
What to Expect During Your NAD Shot Appointment
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation with our medical team, supervised by Dr. Arpita Devani, D.O., who will evaluate your health history, lifestyle, and goals. After establishing your baseline needs, our experts will tailor your NAD+ dosage accordingly.
The procedure is simple:
- Prep: You'll be seated comfortably while the injection site (usually the arm or gluteal muscle) is sterilized.
- Injection: The NAD shot is administered in less than 2 minutes.
- Post-Care: You may feel an immediate increase in alertness or energy. No downtime is needed.
Most patients benefit from a weekly or bi-weekly injection, though some may require more frequent sessions depending on individual goals.
