Recent News Raises Safety Alarm You may have heard the tragic news about Shefali Jariwala, the beloved “Kaanta Laga” girl, who passed suddenly on June 27, 2025, at just 42 Initial reports point to cardiac arrest, possibly triggered by a combination of an antiaging IV drip (Vitamin C and glutathione) administered while fasting—a situation that shocked fans and professionals alike
This heartbreaking event serves as a profound reminder: even seemingly “routine” cosmetic wellness treatments—especially when unsupervised or used during fasting—can carry serious health risks.
Understanding Anti-Aging Treatments: Safety First
Anti-aging treatments, when administered properly, can be both safe and effective. However, it’s essential to understand that these are medical procedures that require proper supervision and consideration of your individual health profile.
Why This Matters: A growing number of people choose anti-aging therapies—like IV drips and skin boosters—for rejuvenation, glow, and overall wellness. But when not managed carefully, these “quick fixes” can lead to dehydration, blood pressure shifts, electrolyte imbalance, and even heart complications, especially under fasting or existing health conditions.
Overview of Anti-Aging Treatment Safety Guidelines:
| Section | What to Know | Key Takeaways |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Medical Consultation | “Full medical history, medications, lifestyle, stress, fasting info” | Never skip consultation. Transparency = safety. |
| 2. Choose Licensed Facility | “Check for medical license, certified staff, emergency readiness” | Don’t compromise on hygiene or staff qualifications. |
| 3. Pre-Treatment Essentials | “Eat properly, stay hydrated, avoid treatment when sick/stressed” | No fasting + no dehydration = safer outcomes. |
| 4. IV Drips (e.g., Glutathione) | “Can support skin glow & detox, but can affect blood pressure and kidneys” | “Only safe when supervised, hydrated, and well-nourished.” |
| 5. Injectables (e.g., Skin Boosters) | “Ensure authenticity, proper storage, and professional injection” | Verify product batch and follow post-care. |
| 6. Red Flags | “Cheap offers, no consultation, no doctor on-site, upselling combo deals” | Walk away from “too good to be true” offers. |
| 7. When to Avoid Treatments | “Fasting, illness, mental stress, or unmanaged health issues” | Postpone till body is fully prepared. |
| 8. Safety Protocols at Paradise | “Consultations, licensed staff, equipment quality, post-care instructions, emergency response” | We prioritize your health before aesthetic outcomes. |
| 9. Making Informed Choices | “Ask questions, check credentials, understand recovery process” | Stay involved in your treatment decision. Export to Sheets |
1. Always Begin with a Medical Consultation
- Discuss your full medical history 8
- Share current medications, supplements, and health conditions 9
- Describe your dietary habits, fasting practices, stress levels 10
- Set clear expectations—what results do you want? 11
2. Use Only Licensed Medical Facilities
Ensure your clinic offers:
- Qualified medical staff (MDs, RNs, trained technicians) 12
- FDA-/DCGI-approved equipment and protocols 13
- Sterility, hygiene, and structured emergency procedures 14
3. Pre-Treatment Foundations
Comparison of Common Anti-Aging Treatments:
| Treatment Type | Benefits | Risks (If Unsafe) | Safety Measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| IV Drips | “Hydration, immunity boost, antioxidant delivery” | “Drop in BP, dizziness, allergic reactions” | Avoid while fasting; must be doctor-supervised and monitored throughout |
| Glutathione Shots | “Skin lightening, detoxification” | “Liver strain, skin rashes, kidney stress” | Medical supervision and allergy testing needed |
| Vitamin C Drips | “Immunity, collagen support, glow” | “Diarrhea, cramps, risk of oxalate stones” | Do not mix with dehydration or illness |
| Skin Boosters | “Skin hydration, glow, firmness” | “Redness, lumps, inflammation if poorly done” | “Choose original product, sterile needles, trained injector” |
| Botox / Fillers | “Wrinkle reduction, contour enhancement” | “Bruising, asymmetry, allergic response” | Needs anatomical expertise and proper post-treatment care |
4. Know the Risks of Key Treatments
- IV Drips (Vitamin C, Antioxidants)
- Pros: immunity boost, better hydration
- Risks: rapid fluid shifts, kidney stress, blood pressure drops
- Injectables (Glutathione, Hormones)
- Pros: skin lightening, detox
- Risks: metabolic disruption, heart effects, immune reactions
5. Watch for Red Flags
🚩 Warning signs include:
- Extremely low price tags
- No initial consultation
- Treatments by non-medical staff
- Pressure to combine multiple treatments at once
6. When to Postpone or Skip Treatments
Delay anti-aging procedures if:
- You’ve been fasting or dehydrated
- You’re in a high-stress state
- You’re experiencing fever or acute illness
- You have uncontrolled health issues (e.g. BP, heart, kidney)
In Shefali’s case, a lethal mix of fasting + unsupervised injection + potential self-medication appears to have overwhelmed her system.

High-Risk Situations to Avoid
| Condition | Why It’s Risky |

| Uncontrolled BP/Diabetes | “Higher risk of complications, reaction to medications” |
| Recent Illness / Fever | Body is already compromised; avoid further strain |

8. Empowered Decision-Making
- Take these steps before booking any treatment:
- Always listen to your body—report unusual symptoms ASAP
- Research clinic certifications & reputation
- Ask for product details, batch info, expiry dates
- Understand potential side effects and timelines
- Know your recovery process
- Arrange a follow-up check-in
Patient Responsibilities
When undergoing any anti-aging treatment, your active participation is just as important as the doctor’s expertise. Here are your key responsibilities as a patient:
1. Research Thoroughly Take time to understand the treatment, the clinic’s reputation, credentials of the provider, and real patient reviews. Knowledge is your first line of safety.
2. Ask Questions Never hesitate to ask:
- What is this treatment for?
- What products are being used?
- Are there side effects?
- What’s the backup plan if I react badly?
3. Understand the Risks Every treatment, even if non-surgical, has potential side effects or contraindications. Make sure you’re fully aware of what could go wrong and how it will be managed.
4. Follow Pre & Post Guidelines Instructions aren’t optional—they’re critical. From hydration before IVs to avoiding makeup post-treatment, following guidelines ensures smoother recovery and better results.
5. Report Any Concerns Immediately If something feels wrong—dizziness, swelling, allergic reactions, or discomfort—report it to your provider right away. Don’t wait or self-medicate.
Remember:
Being an informed, responsible patient isn’t just about getting better results—it’s about protecting your health and well-being every step of the way.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Are anti-aging treatments safe for everyone?
A: Not always. While many treatments are safe when done correctly, factors like fasting, dehydration, existing health conditions, and unqualified staff can make them risky. Always consult a licensed medical professional before any procedure.
Q2: What happened in Shefali Jariwala’s case?
A: Shefali Jariwala reportedly underwent an IV anti-aging treatment (Vitamin C and Glutathione) while fasting, which may have triggered a fatal drop in blood pressure. This tragedy highlights the importance of never doing these procedures without medical guidance and never while fasting or dehydrated.
Q3: Can I get an IV drip or skin booster if I’m on my period?
A: Yes, but it depends on how you’re feeling. If you’re well-rested, not in pain, and have eaten properly, it’s generally fine. However, if you’re fatigued, cramping, or fasting, it’s better to postpone the treatment.
Q4: What are the signs that a clinic may not be safe?
A: Red flags include:
1. No medical consultation
2. No doctor or licensed staff present
3. Very cheap pricing
4. Pushy staff offering multiple treatments
5. Poor hygiene or improper storage of products
Q5: What should I eat before my appointment?
A: Eat a light but nutritious meal with carbs, protein, and hydration (e.g., rice with dal, fruit, or a smoothie). Avoid caffeine and spicy food right before treatment.
Q6: Can I do anti-aging treatments if I have high blood pressure or diabetes?
A: Only under medical supervision. Certain treatments (like IV drips or boosters) may affect your blood sugar or BP, so it’s important that your condition is well-controlled and cleared by your doctor.
Q7: What’s the difference between a “skin booster” and a “filler”?
A:
1. Skin Boosters hydrate and improve skin texture (like Profhilo or Rejuran).
2. Fillers restore lost volume and shape (like Juvederm or Restylane).
3. Both need expert application and aren’t interchangeable.
Q8: Can I combine multiple treatments in one session?
A: Only if advised by your doctor. Sometimes combining is fine (like facial + booster), but other times, it may overload your system—especially with IVs or peels.
Q9: How do I know if the injectable product is authentic?
A: Ask to see:
1. The sealed vial/pack
2. Brand and batch number
3. Expiry date
4. Cold storage or refrigeration setup
Reputable clinics like Paradise Wellness will always be transparent.
Q10: What should I do if I feel dizzy or unwell after a treatment?
A: Immediately alert the staff. Lie down, hydrate, and get evaluated. If symptoms worsen, seek emergency care. That’s why choosing a clinic with emergency protocols is essential.
