Wherever you go looking for ingredients which can be added to your skincare routine, you will get a recommendation to use hyaluronic acid. Initially, this ingredient was only used in the medical field to infiltrate damaged joints, but nowadays, it is used in the cosmetic industry to fight aging and dehydration of the skin.
What is hyaluronic acid?
We normally find a substance in our body being present in the skin, joints and forming part of other organs such as the eyes. Its main function is to retain water. Each molecule of hyaluronic acid can retain up to a thousand times its weight in water.
What with the benefits of using hyaluronic acid in our skincare routine?
- Hydration: The use of this ingredient aids in greater water retention in the epidermis and deeper layers of the skin, thus improving problems such as dry skin.
- Reduction of wrinkles and expression lines: By increasing hydration and collagen production, you will notice a reduction in wrinkles; these will look shallower.
- Stimulates collagen production: In this way, it fights aging. When injected in the forms of dermal fillers, collagen production is increased for several months.
- All skin types can use it: Anyone can add this ingredient to their routine, even people with sensitive skin and conditions such as rosacea.
