Hyaluronic Acid for skin
OVERVIEW
What Is Hyaluronic Acid?
Young, healthy skin contains lots of Hyaluronic Acid but, as we age, our skin produces less, and existing reserves deplete.
What does
Hyaluronic Acid DO?
Hyaluronic Acid is a powerful humectant which means that it acts like a magnet, attracting water to skin. It can bind and retain up to 1000 times its weight in water. To give an idea of the magnitude of this statistic, just one quarter-teaspoon of Hyaluronic Acid can hold 1.5 gallons of water.
Maintaining optimal hydration is key to healthy skin: without the right amount of water, skin dries out and can lose its radiance and firmness. Hyaluronic Acid helps prevent skin from losing too much moisture and so is vital to skin hydration.
As skin ages, we produce less Hyaluronic Acid and existing Hyaluronic Acid starts to degrade. This can lead to age-induced dryness and is also one of the factors responsible for the visible signs of skin aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, a loss of volume, and a loss of elasticity.
Research has demonstrated the value of certain forms of Hyaluronic Acid as an ingredient in topical skincare, and Hyaluronic Acid used as an ingredient in topical products is not the same as what we have in our body. Some skincare formulas containing Hyaluronic Acid can help to boost skin moisturization and make skin look more plumped.
What are the
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid?
Moisture retention is the main advantage of Hyaluronic Acid, but there are more Hyaluronic Acid benefits:
- Improves skin flexibility:Hyaluronic Acid helps to support skin looking or feeling firmer, and elasticity and flexibility in the skin.
- Helps reduce visible signs of aging:As we age, it's normal for our skin to lose moisture, leading to dry skin as the natural production of Hyaluronic Acid decreases. Depending on the formula, products with Hyaluronic Acid may help to increase the amount of Hyaluronic Acid in your skin and moisturize it, helping to minimize the appearance of fine lines caused by dry skin.
