Hyaluronic Acid



"Uses Of H.A"




Hyaluronic acid is a substance that is naturally present in the body, specially in the skin, the cartilage, soft connective tissue, the fluid surrounding the eyes,...

It is derived from the greek word "hyalos", which means "glass". It was discovered in 1934 by scientist Karl Meyer.

Is also known as "hyaluronan" and is a viscous, clear gel with many functions in the body such as:
  • acts as a cushion and lubricant in the joints

  • is essential for proper vision and gives shape and volume to the eyes

  • is a great moisturizer

  • helps to retain water in the skin

  • provides essential nutrients to the cells

  • helps to remove waste from the cells

  • is recommended after sunbathing

  • acts as an antioxidant

  • is recommended after laser treatments and chemical peels

  • gives the skin volume and fullness
Hyaluronic acid is a great humectant, with the ability to retain water, by holding up to 1000 times its weight. For this reason is used as an skin care ingredient in many cosmetic formulations.

It does a great job moisturizing the skin, attracting and retaining water and keeping the skin hydrated and smooth. This skin care product Dr. Michelle Copeland Rewind Reparative Night Serum has H.A and ferulic acid to brighten the skin plus antioxidant vitamins A, C and E will keep the skin protected from free radical damage.

Is sold as a supplement and some researchers suggest that taking supplements can help boost collagen production, diminishing fine lines and wrinkles . HA decreases with age and environmental factors, the skin loses volume (sagging skin) and wrinkles begin to appear.

Synthetic H.A is used in injections to give volume to the face such as cheeks and lips, and to fill fine lines and wrinkles. You can find out more here wrinkle filler .
