Benefits of Biotin Injections

Biotin injections assist in the metabolism of fatty acids, carbohydrates, and protein, and its major benefit is strengthening hair and nails. Biotin plays a major role in the natural hair manufacturing process—it is essential to not only grow new hair, but it’s also crucial in improving the overall health of your hair.

Biotin is a B complex vitamin that occurs naturally in a variety of foods. 

Food sources with the most significant amounts of biotin include:

  • Nuts (especially peanuts and almonds)
  • Egg yolks
  • Soybeans
  • Fish
  • Whole-wheat bread
  • Pork
  • Cauliflower

Although biotin occurs naturally in various foods, people suffering from a deficiency usually have a genetic issue that prevents them from fully absorbing this nutrient. Biotin injections give the body a powerful boost of biotin that is more easily absorbed.

Not only does Biotin for hair growth promote healthy hair, it also prevents hair dryness. This nutrient has shown to increase the elasticity of hair, thereby preventing and minimizing breakage. With biotin injections, your new hair growth can be shiny, thick, and beautiful, replacing hair that is dry and damaged.

When injected, biotin reacts with cell enzymes and plays a vital part in producing amino acids—the building blocks of protein. This is crucial, because hair itself consists of keratin, which is a form of protein. Unlike shampoos and other products that are designed to be applied directly to hair, biotin injections work from inside your body. Supplements replace the vitamin you are lacking, so hair growth can be restored.

Extreme biotin deficiency can be caused by long-term use of antibiotics, extended use of prenatal supplements, and other genetic conditions.

Common biotin deficiency symptoms include:

  • Dermatitis
  • Anemia
  • Anorexia
  • Conjunctiva of the eyes
  • Paresthesia (tingling/prickly sensation of the skin)

Shiny, healthy hair is not the only benefit of biotin injections! 

Biotin injection recipients may also experience:

  • Optimized digestion which can lead to weight loss
  • Improved nail health
  • Improved skin health
  • Anti-aging benefits
  • Increased energy
  • Reduced inflammation
  • Stabilized blood sugar
  • Lower cholesterol
