I've done the whitening injections. They inject glutathione into your veins. After that they inject vitamin c. it's advisable that this procedure be done 3-4 times a week until you get the desired results. my experience is that you will get lighter - far more effective than the gluta pills but you will not get very light. the effect is not drastic. i believe this procedure is for people who are already a bit light but who want to get somewhat lighter. if you want to get very light then maybe monobenzone is for you (although i'm not sure about the side effects).

my experience was that it will make you noticeably but not drastically lighter. as for getting the same color all over your body - i didn't get that effect. for instance, if your elbows and knees are darker than the rest of your skin, they will not become the same color but they will get lighter. i don't know if other people have had a different experience from mine but i've done only at least 25 injections in total. i didn't experience any side effects but you should be careful to get injections that aren't fake. and you definitely should get the gluta injections with the vit. c injections - far more effective. and it is recommended that you should be taking gluta pills with vitamin c supplements too.

i got my injections from the philippines. there are a number of dermatologists there that give these injections.

radiant smooth glowing skin? i'm not so sure. but i don't remember my skin really before i started using my whitening products. my friends say it's a lot better - smoother and more even. it's not perfect but it's better. however, i'm not sure which of my products is responsible for that. the only thing i'm sure of is that i got noticeably lighter just after 2 weeks or maybe even less when i did the injections.

you can google vicki belo. she's one of the more famous dermatologists in the Philippines and she has a website with contact details.

i don't know any doctors in the US who do these injections. all i know is that these injections are very prevalent in the Philippines. so sorry, but i can't help you there. glutathione pills which you can buy at gnc or other vitamin shops are effective if taken 500 mg to 1000 mg with double the dose of vitamin c. i've seen grapeseed extract also does help in making skin smooth. you should also try whitening soaps like papaya.

I was dark skin and I found out that all the Stars when they wanted to get lighter was going to this place called Skin Essence day Spa in Atlanta , Ga . We drove down there and it was true . They have a service called A Royal Body Polish , that shhhh works . You get lighter instantly (I mean that same day ) now i am about 3 shades lighter and I love it ! My make up looks better on me and I meet way more guys now.
