Hyaluronic acid  is nowadays considered a miracle that erases wrinkles and restores skin moisture. Hyaluronic acid is found in the skin, cartilage, joints. Hyaluronic acid is very popular in cosmetics because of its ability to bind water. It participates in wrinkle filling and collagen formation. But, how much of what manufacturers claim is really true?

IT BINDS A THOUSAND TIMES MORE WATER

Hyaluronic acid got its name from the Greek word "hyalos" (glass) because of its glassy appearance. It is the main component of many organs, for example there is hyaluronic acid in the muscles, in connective tissue. There is a hyaluronic acid even in the eyes and joints, but the highest percentage of it it is found in the skin. By composition, hyaluronic acid is polymer (mucopolysaccharide) composed of a large number of disaccharide units which means it is a substance of high molecular weight. Its main property is the ability to bind water, even a thousand times larger amounts: only 1 gram of hyaluronic acid accumulates 1 liter of water. 

Hyaluronic acid smoothes wrinkles and scars 

We believe that you already heard about famous hyaluronic injections that are injected to fill wrinkles and scars. With age, hyaluronic acid levels decreases. Aging is not the only cause of it, but also a lifestyle. Smoking, stress, unhealthy diet can contribute hyaluronic acid loss. Hyaluronic acid can be used when you notice the first wrinkles to restore skin elasticity and moisture. Since it is normally found in the body, the risk of allergic reaction is minimal.

 HYALURONIC ACID AGAINST AGING   

With aging the skin begins to lose hyaluronic acid, collagen, subcutaneous fat and elasticity. 

As a result, and due to gravitational force and constant use of facial muscles, wrinkles are created, the face loses volume and the skin become dull and tired. 

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that has a great influence in building an extracellular space of the skin, where it plays a very important role in water balans as well as healing. 

BABY- SOFT SKIN 

The role of hyaluronic acid in skin elasticity, firmness and in wrinkle formation become interesting to scientists after they found out that baby skin has much more hyaluronic acid than in elders.  Young skin is rich in water, firm, elastic and fresh.  Over the time, as a result of aging, smoking, unhealthy diet hyaluronic acid levels decreases causing the skin to lose moisture, firmness, volume and elasticity and due to it wrinkled and sagging skin around the eyes is formed. In the laboratories of cosmetics companies they managed to find a way to compose hyaluronic acid to face care preparations.  There are a larger number of skin care products that cointains hyaluronic acid, such as moisturizes, anti-wrinkle creams and serums.  Due to their high molecular weight, hyaluronic acid molecules are difficult to penetrate  into the deeper layers of the skin. In order to change it special technological procedures break down the molecules into smaller fragments and thus ensure their penetration into the dermis. In the dermis those fragments stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid and they improve hydration and reduce wrinkles.
