Hyaluronic Acid Skin Care Products
Hyaluronic acid
skin care is HOT!
Hyaluronic
acid which is also called hyaluronan or hyaluronate is a gel
like substance found in the skin as well as in the fluid around the
eyes, connective tissues, cartilage, and in between joints.
As a major
component of skin, hyaluronic
acid serves a vital function in tissue
repair and healing, cell proliferation, providing elasticity and to
fill up space in tissues.
The FDA approved hyaluronic acid in 2003 as an
injected dermal filler for wrinkles and other soft tissue defects.
Hyaluronic acid has been rapidly gaining in popularity as an active
ingredient
in topical skin care products because it produces results!
HA products are clinically proven
to effectively treat fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin.
Aging, over exposure to the sun, and other environmental factors
decrease the skin's ability to product hyaluronic acid naturally and
can actually increase the rate of the skin's natural HA content to
degrade over time.
Typically, in an average person, about a third of
the natural body's HA is renewed every day.
As an active ingredient in
topical anti-aging treatments, hyaluronic acid skin care products have
proven to
be effective in plumping and firming sagging skin, diminishing fine
lines and wrinkles, as well as treating acne scars and healing damaged
skin.
The rejuvenating attributes of all active anti-aging skin care
ingredients are summarized in the Fact Sheet on Anti-Aging Ingredients.
The Skin Care Products Pricing and Buyer's Guide has compiled a listing
of hyaluronic acid
facial treatments that have the most effective
formulation incorporated into each product's ingredients.
