Hyaluronic Acid: what it is, how it works and why it is important for your skin
Hyaluronic Acid is a substance naturally produced by our body with the aim of hydrating and protecting skin tissues. The daily supply of water to our skin is necessary to maintain an adequate hydrolipidic balance, to restore the right level of brightness to the skin and to prevent the first imperfections, caused by external aggressive agents or facial expressions.
As we age, the quantity of Hyaluronic Acid naturally produced progressively decreases; at the same time, the skin's ability to maintain an adequate level of hydration is also reduced. For this reason, integrating products based on Hyaluronic Acid into your beauty routine can prove to be an ideal choice for your skin. Thanks to these products, you can treat yourself to a real beauty treat after a day of work, in which the skin is dehydrated or lipid-deficient due to pollution, stress or make-up.
The cosmetic benefits of Hyaluronic Acid
The cosmetic use of Hyaluronic Acid is linked to the molecule's chemical characteristic of arranging itself like a 'ball' to retain more water. In fact, a Hyaluronic Acid molecule has the ability to bind many water molecules to itself. As a result, the Hyaluronic Acid molecules swell with water and their volume grows, promoting the 'filling' of micro-wrinkles. This action helps to give the skin silkiness and elasticity.
Hyaluronic acid with high and low molecular weight: what changes?
Hyaluronic acid can have a high or low molecular weight: its functions vary based on this characteristic. Low molecular weight Hyaluronic Acid acts in depth. The one with a high molecular weight, on the other hand, being positioned at a superficial level, increases the number of H2O molecules and maintains hydration, turgidity, plasticity and viscosity. Furthermore, Hyaluronic Acid acts as a cementing substance and as an anti-shock molecule, guaranteeing a relaxing effect.
In cosmetics, the maximum optimal concentration of Hyaluronic Acid is 2% since higher concentrations are too viscous and cosmetically unusable.
