5 Surprising Benefits Of Hyaluronic Acid

Yes we know, along with its use in the lip filler industry, there are a variety of other benefits of hyaluronic acid  that you don’t know.  So, we are here to help you out!

Hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan, is a clear, glowy substance that is naturally produced by your body.

The largest amounts of it are found in your skin, connective tissue and eyes.

Its main function is to retain water to keep your tissues well lubricated and moist.  

Hyaluronic Acid

Here are 5 scientifically backed benefits of taking hyaluronic acid:
  1. Promotes healthy and supple skin.
  2. It contains anti-aging properties.
  3. It has moisturizing nature.
  4. Can treat eczema.
  5. Can treat facial redness.
Why hyaluronic acid is so magical:

For starters, HA can bind up to 1000 times its weight in water!

In other words, it functions as a humectant and holds water molecules onto the surface of your skin to keep it nice and hydrated. Roughly half of the hyaluronic acid in your body is present in your skin, however, the natural aging process and exposure to things like ultraviolet radiation from the sun, tobacco smoke and pollution can decrease its amounts in the skin.

Taking hyaluronic acid supplements may prevent this decline by giving your body extra amounts to incorporate into the skin.

Doses of 120–240 mg per day for at least one month have been shown to significantly increase skin moisture and reduce dry skin in adults.

Hydrated skin also reduces the appearance of wrinkles, which may explain why several studies show that using its supplements can make skin appear smoother and reduces facial redness and dermatitis by regulating inflammation levels and signaling the body to build more blood vessels in the damaged area.

Some dermatologists even inject hyaluronic acid fillers to keep skin looking firm and youthful.

So the summary of this article is that Hyaluronic acid has a lot of other benefits besides giving you a Hollywood smile!
