Understanding IV Drips
Intravenous (IV) drips
deliver fluids, vitamins, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream, allowing for rapid absorption and immediate benefit. Unlike oral supplements, which must pass through the digestive system, IV therapy bypasses that process entirely — ensuring your body receives what it needs, fast.
After surgery, your body works hard to repair tissue, fight inflammation, and restore balance. IV drips offer targeted support during this phase, helping you feel stronger, more hydrated, and better equipped to heal.
At Bali Luxe Medical, IV drips are available as an optional addition to your post-operative care, designed to complement your recovery plan and enhance overall wellbeing.
Why IV Drips Are Valuable After Surgery
Surgery, anaesthesia, and medications can leave the body slightly depleted. IV therapy replenishes what’s been lost — restoring hydration, energy, and essential nutrients.
1. Rehydration
During and after surgery, the body often becomes dehydrated due to fasting, medication, or fluid loss. IV fluids quickly re-establish hydration and electrolyte balance, helping you feel refreshed and stabilised.
2. Nutrient Replenishment
Vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, B-complex, magnesium, and zinc are essential for healing. These nutrients help reduce fatigue, boost energy, and promote cellular repair.
3. Immune Support
After surgery, your immune system is working overtime. Vitamin-rich IV drips can help strengthen immune defences, reducing the risk of infection and supporting tissue recovery.
4. Reduced Inflammation
Antioxidants and amino acids found in certain IV formulations help calm inflammation, minimise swelling, and promote faster tissue healing.
5. Energy and Vitality
It’s common to feel low on energy after surgery. IV therapy can help restore natural energy levels and improve overall wellbeing, so you can focus on resting and healing.
The Science Behind IV Therapy
While IV drips are often associated with hydration or wellness spas, they have long been used in medical settings to support patients recovering from illness, dehydration, or surgery.
Research from reputable sources such as the Cleveland Clinic and Mayo Clinic confirms that IV therapy can be beneficial for rapid rehydration, delivering vitamins and electrolytes efficiently and safely under professional care.
At Bali Luxe Medical, all IV drips are administered by trained nurses experienced in post-operative care, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and medically appropriate experience for each guest.
