IV Therapy in Barranquilla
Vitamins and nutrients delivered intravenously, with medical indication and supervision. In this ecosystem, IV therapy is used as support in preparing for plastic surgery and during recovery.
What is IV therapy?
IV therapy is the administration of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients intravenously, in a clinical setting and under medical supervision. Because it goes directly into the bloodstream, the intake does not depend on digestive absorption.
In this ecosystem it is used mainly as support at two moments: preparing for plastic surgery and accompanying recovery.
It is not a miracle treatment and it does not replace nutrition or any medical treatment. It is a complement that can help when there is an indication, with a prior evaluation and follow-up.
What IV therapy is used for
Preoperative support
Used as part of the preparation package, to support your arrival at surgery.
Recovery support
Can accompany the postoperative period, according to the plan defined for each patient.
Intravenous delivery
Vitamins and nutrients that go directly into the bloodstream, without depending on digestive absorption.
Medical supervision
Prior medical history, an indication defined at the consultation, and application by medical staff.

About Dr. Eliana Garcés
I am Dr. Eliana Garcés, a plastic surgeon in Barranquilla. I see aesthetics as an investment in well-being and longevity: surgery and regenerative medicine work together to achieve real, lasting results.
IV therapy is part of that way of working: my patients prepare and recover within a single ecosystem, with a medical team coordinated with me.
My training includes international fellowships, and part of my experience is published in international scientific journals.
Restore your energy and well-being with IV therapy tailored to your needs
IV drips deliver vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients to support your well-being, improve recovery, and strengthen your health from within.
What the IV therapy process looks like
Consultation
Medical history, current medications, and goals. This is where we define whether IV therapy is indicated in your case.
Plan
The medical team defines the components of the drip and the number of sessions, according to your moment: preparation, recovery, or targeted support.
Application
An in-office session, administered intravenously by medical staff, with supervision throughout the entire procedure.
Integration
IV therapy is woven into your pathway: the preparation package before surgery or postoperative follow-ups afterward.
Where IV therapy fits in my surgical pathway
In my practice, surgery does not begin or end in the operating room. My surgical patients go through a preparation package within Regenera, the ecosystem I lead, and IV therapy is part of that package: before surgery, as part of the preparation, and afterward, as support during recovery.
The indication is not automatic. The ecosystem’s medical team evaluates each case at the consultation and defines whether IV therapy adds value, with which components, and at what moment.
The application is performed by medical staff in the office, with a prior medical history. That framework is what separates a medical act from a wellness trend.
When IV therapy is indicated
IV therapy is indicated mainly as support within a medical plan: patients who are going to have surgery and are doing their preparation package, and patients in postoperative recovery whom the medical team decides to support this way.
It is not for anyone looking for a cure, a detox, or a substitute for good nutrition. No drip replaces healthy habits or the treatment of a health condition.
If you have an underlying medical condition or take medications, it is essential to let us know: the indication and the components of the drip are defined based on your complete medical history.
