Benefits / Indications: Anti-Aging, Reduces Dry Spots

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid, commonly abbreviated as “HA”, is a naturally occurring molecule found throughout almost every fluid and tissue in our bodies, primarily in the skin, eyes, and joints. In fact, approximately 50% of the total HA resides in the skin [1.]

Hyaluronic Acid is crucial to the moisture and elasticity of our skin. Unfortunately, as we age, the concentration and molecular weight of HA substantially decrease [2.] Because of this, hyaluronic acid has been widely researched and formulated as a powerful active ingredient in serums, moisturizers, and other cosmetic products.

There are technically three types of hyaluronic acid molecules that are formulated into skincare products:

  • Hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid.
  • Sodium acetylated hyaluronate.
  • Sodium hyaluronate.

Anti-Aging

Hyaluronic Acid helps reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles retaining moisture to the skin, creating a plumping effect. When the skin is protected and hydrated, increased skin cell production can take place, as the skin isn’t busy fighting for hydration. This leads to smoother, plumper skin cells.

Skin Brightener

Products formulated with hyaluronic acid can also brighten skin’s appearance. Skin will appear smoother and plumped with hydration after use.

When there is increased cell turnover, hyaluronic acid also helps reduce and prevent age spots and pigmentation issues.

Hydration

Think of hyaluronic acid like a BIG drink of water for your skin. It is able to hold up to 1,000 times its molecular weight in water [3.] Hyaluronic acid penetrates the skin and binds water to skin cells, infusing all layers of the skin with valuable, rejuvenating moisture.

hyaluronic acid boosts your skin’s moisture retention. You’ll want to keep your skin hydrated, because youthful-looking skin maintains its glowing, dewy appearance thanks to moisture, according to research published by the National Institutes of Health.
