Vitamin shots, including vitamin B12, are quick injections that deliver nutrients directly into the muscle, so your body can use them without relying on digestion. At Cosmetica Med Spa in Boca Raton, vitamin shots start at $50 and take just a few minutes.
What vitamin B12 does
Vitamin B12 helps your body make healthy red blood cells, supports your nerves and plays a role in turning food into energy. When levels are low, people often feel tired, foggy or weak.
Why a shot instead of a pill?
Some people don't absorb B12 well from food or supplements, especially as they get older or if they take certain medications. An injection bypasses the digestive system.

Frequently asked questions
What vitamin shots do you offer?
Our most popular is vitamin B12. Your provider can recommend other options based on your goals and health history.
Who benefits most from B12 shots?
People with low B12 levels benefit most. Low levels are more common in older adults, vegans and vegetarians, people taking metformin or acid reflux medication, and people with digestive conditions or a history of weight loss surgery.
Will a B12 shot give me more energy?
If your B12 is low, correcting it can help with fatigue. If your levels are already normal, extra B12 is unlikely to make a noticeable difference. Your provider may recommend lab work to check.
How often can I get them?
Many people get vitamin shots weekly or monthly. Your provider will recommend a schedule based on your needs.
Are there side effects?
Most people only notice mild soreness at the injection site. Tell us about any allergies or medical conditions before your shot.
