Hello.
This is Director Hwang Jeong-hwang of Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Have you ever felt that even after sleeping, you don't feel refreshed and your fatigue doesn't go away, especially when working overtime or during seasonal changes?
"If I work overtime for a week, my recovery is slow even if I rest well on the weekend.
I feel like my condition is down and I'm getting sick more often."
Chronic fatigue is not just caused by a lack of sleep,
but is a multi-factorial change that occurs as the efficiency of the body's energy metabolism cycle decreases.
If Vitamin B1, which is essential for the process of converting carbohydrates into energy, is deficient or consumed excessively,
it creates an environment that affects the recovery of muscle and nerve functions.
To address this energy metabolism environment, the Gangnam Garlic Injection is a method of directly administering Fursultiamine, an active Vitamin B1 that has higher absorption rates and longer retention time in the body than regular Vitamin B1, intravenously.
Today, I will summarize what the Garlic Injection is composed of,
how it works, and what you should know in advance.
What is the Gangnam Garlic Injection?
👉 The Gangnam Garlic Injection is a line of nutritional injections that directly administers Fursultiamine, an active (fat-soluble) Vitamin B1, intravenously to support carbohydrate energy conversion and nerve/muscle function.
The name 'Garlic Injection' does not mean that it actually contains garlic ingredients.
It is a nickname that became established because of the characteristic that you may temporarily smell something like garlic after the injection,
and the actual main ingredient is an active Vitamin B1 derivative called Fursultiamine.

Fursultiamine is a fat-soluble Vitamin B1 form discovered in Japan in 1952 while researching the allicin component of garlic,
and it has been used clinically for over 40 years as it has a longer cell absorption rate and longer retention time in the body than regular water-soluble Vitamin B1.
How Fursultiamine differs from regular Vitamin B1
👉 Fursultiamine is an active (fat-soluble) Vitamin B1 derivative,
which has a higher cell absorption rate and longer retention time in the body than regular water-soluble Vitamin B1.
Water-soluble vs. Fat-soluble difference
Generally, water-soluble Vitamin B1, which is consumed orally, is absorbed quickly,
but its absorption rate into cells and retention time are short, so a high percentage is excreted in urine after a certain period.
Fursultiamine has a fat-soluble structure, making it easier to pass through cell membranes and be absorbed inside,
and it is known for the characteristic of staying in the body for a longer time.
Oral vs. Intravenous administration
When Vitamin B1 is taken orally, the absorption rate in the stomach is limited,
but when administered intravenously, it reaches the bloodstream directly, which is more effective for bodily functions.
This is also why Garlic Injections are classified in a different category from oral nutritional supplements.
Indications approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety
Fursultiamine is a professional pharmaceutical product with Ministry of Food and Drug Safety-approved efficacy for areas related to Vitamin B1 deficiency or metabolic disorders,
such as neuralgia, muscle pain, joint pain, and peripheral neuritis.
It is good to understand in advance that "fatigue recovery" and "skin beauty," which are commonly known in the aesthetic field,
are off-label areas used clinically, not official indications approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety.
Mechanism of action of the Gangnam Garlic Injection
👉 The mechanism of action of the Garlic Injection is summarized into four points: supporting carbohydrate energy conversion, preventing lactic acid accumulation, supporting nerve function, and increasing cell absorption rate and retention time.
Supporting carbohydrate energy conversion
Vitamin B1 is a key coenzyme in the metabolic cycle that converts carbohydrates into energy.
If B1 is deficient or consumed excessively, energy production efficiency drops,
creating an environment where vitality decreases even if you eat the same amount of food.
Preventing lactic acid accumulation
Vitamin B1 is a supporting component that reduces the environment where lactic acid accumulates in muscles.
It is reported as a line that focuses on relieving muscle fatigue.
Supporting nerve function
Vitamin B1 is a component that acts on maintaining nerve cell function.
Since it acts on both the peripheral and central nervous systems,

it is a category also used for symptom areas such as neuralgia or muscle pain.
Increasing cell absorption rate and retention time
Thanks to the fat-soluble structure of Fursultiamine, it is absorbed into the inside of cells
and is known to act by staying in the body for a longer time.
This characteristic is the difference of the Garlic Injection from regular water-soluble Vitamin B1.
Effects and Advantages
👉 The key advantages of the Garlic Injection are summarized into three points: direct approach to the energy metabolism environment, absorption rate through intravenous administration, and simple procedure time.
First, it directly approaches the energy metabolism environment.
As it is a line that administers Vitamin B1, a key coenzyme for carbohydrate energy conversion, in an active form,
it has a different action flow from oral nutritional supplements.
Next, it achieves absorption through intravenous administration.
As it bypasses the limitations of gastrointestinal absorption and reaches the bloodstream directly,
it is known as a category that carries weight in bodily functions.
Finally, it is a line with a short procedure time.
The schedule is completed within 10-20 minutes, so the burden on daily life is relatively low,
and it is an area where you adjust the maintenance cycle according to your condition after cumulative progress of 1-2 times a week.
Lineup
👉 The Garlic Injection is a category that is also operated as a nutritional injection line combined with Vitamin B complex, minerals, and antioxidant ingredients in addition to single administration.
We will look at the composition that suits your condition and schedule together during the preliminary consultation.
Recommended for these people
Those who cannot easily recover from chronic fatigue due to overtime work or seasonal changes
Those who have a heavy burden of recovery after drinking alcohol
Those whose condition is down due to accompanying muscle pain or joint pain
Those who feel that absorption is insufficient with oral nutritional supplements
Those who want to see changes in their condition through step-by-step cumulative care
Side effects and things to know in advance
👉 The Gangnam Garlic Injection is a line that has been used clinically for over 40 years and is a relatively safe area, but
the possibility of side effects may accompany depending on your constitution.
Temporary pain, bruising, and mild irritation may accompany the injection site immediately after the procedure,
and it is reported that most of them subside within a few days.
Depending on the constitution, there are cases where side effects such as rashes, vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, and nausea have been reported.

Rarely, serious side effects such as hypotension, chest pain, and difficulty breathing have been reported,
so if you experience abnormal symptoms during the procedure,
it is recommended to inform the medical staff immediately.
Immediately after the procedure, you may temporarily smell something like garlic.
Only you can smell it, and it is a characteristic reported to disappear naturally within 1 hour.
"Fatigue recovery" and "skin beauty," which are commonly known in the aesthetic field,
are off-label areas, not official indications approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety,
so it is good to understand that there are individual differences in the degree of effect.
Please inform us in advance as the procedure may be restricted in the following cases:
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
If you have a history of hypersensitivity to the ingredients of this product
If you have underlying diseases such as reduced kidney function or severe liver disease
If you are undergoing chemotherapy or regularly taking anticoagulants
If you have a history of drug hypersensitivity
⚠️ Precautions before and after the procedure
👉 For the Garlic Injection, condition checks and lifestyle management before and after the procedure affect the feeling of effectiveness and safety.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)Q. Does the injection actually contain garlic ingredients?
It does not actually contain garlic ingredients.
The main ingredient is an active Vitamin B1 derivative called Fursultiamine,
and it is a name that became established as a nickname because of the characteristic that you may temporarily smell something like garlic after the procedure.
Q. When does the effect of the Garlic Injection appear?
It varies depending on constitution and condition, but some report feeling fatigue improvement immediately after 1-2 procedures,
and it is known that condition stabilization accompanies at the point of 3-4 cumulative procedures.
It is an area where results stabilize when taken together with lifestyle management such as diet, sleep, and exercise.
Q. How often is it good to receive the Garlic Injection?
Generally, it is recommended to proceed cumulatively 4-6 times at 1-2 week intervals at first,
and after the condition is stabilized, maintenance administration about once a month is recommended.
The interval that suits your condition will be organized together during the preliminary consultation.
Q. Do I lose weight with the Garlic Injection?
It is not a procedure for the purpose of weight loss.

Since Vitamin B1 is a line that acts on carbohydrate energy metabolism,
it is an area that focuses on energy efficiency support and is a different category from procedures that have direct fat-dissolving effects.
Q. How much is the procedure pain?
Since it is an intravenous injection, a brief stinging sensation may accompany when the needle enters,
and the procedure itself is conducted in a comfortable environment.
Q. Are there cases where I cannot receive the procedure?
If you have a history of hypersensitivity to the ingredients of this product,
or if you have reduced kidney function, severe liver disease, are undergoing chemotherapy, or are pregnant or breastfeeding,
the procedure may be restricted.
We will look at your health condition together during the preliminary consultation.
Q. Can I receive it together with White Jade Injection or Cinderella Injection?
There are areas where nutritional injection lines are combined depending on your condition and safety intervals.
The combination schedule and safety will be organized together during the preliminary consultation.
Chronic fatigue is not just caused by a lack of sleep,
but is a multi-factorial change where the body's energy metabolism environment, consumption and absorption of Vitamin B1,
and lifestyle management such as sleep, diet, and exercise act together.
This is also the reason why a line that directly administers active Vitamin B1 intravenously has become established, as there are limitations in the absorption environment with oral nutritional supplements alone.
The Gangnam Garlic Injection is a nutritional injection line that directly administers Fursultiamine, an active Vitamin B1, intravenously to support carbohydrate energy conversion and nerve/muscle function.
However, it is good to understand together that "fatigue recovery" and "skin beauty," which are commonly known in the aesthetic field,
are off-label areas, not official indications approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety,
and that it is a supplementary care position where results stabilize when taken together with lifestyle management such as sleep, diet, and exercise, rather than all condition recovery being achieved by the injection alone.
At Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch, we operate various nutritional injection lines in addition to the Garlic Injection.
We will personally check the nutritional injection composition that suits your condition during the consultation.
If you feel that your condition is down due to overtime work and seasonal changes,
please feel free to visit Cleor Clinic Gangnam Branch.
Even before deciding on the procedure, we will guide you in detail on the care direction that suits your condition through a preliminary consultation.
