Aging skin reduces its barrier function, increasing transepidermal water loss (TEWL: when water is transported from inside the body through the epidermis to the outside) and decreasing moisture content.

It is essential to counteract this progression by repairing the skin barrier, reducing TEWL, and increasing moisture levels. For this reason, hyaluronic acid, known for its high effectiveness against the aforementioned weak points, is a popular ingredient in cosmetic products such as creams, serums, gels, and masks.

Of course, the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid in cosmetic products always depends on the concentration of the end product.

The ultimate moisturizer

 It has already been explained that skin aging is associated with a decrease in HA levels in the skin. In both the epidermis and the dermis, this contributes to the loss of moisture and elasticity.

Hyaluronic acid skin rejuvenation products replenish these losses with hyaluronic acid. In addition, synergy effects can occur when using HA care products together with HA dermal fillers. However, cosmetic products with HA do not penetrate deeply into the skin. Instead, they remain on the surface and form a protective layer that strengthens the skin barrier and stores moisture in the skin.

Hyaluronic Acid Is Safe and gentle on the skin

Hyaluronic acid is non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-allergenic as it is naturally present in our skin. It is, therefore, suitable in cosmetic formulations for all skin types.

Hyaluronic acid-based creams can be recommended to all those who do not want to undergo an injection. They can be a preventive measure in the anti-aging process, or they can serve as a preparation for a planned injection.

Even if you don’t have to worry about wrinkles right now, there’s no harm in using a product improving your skin’s elasticity. Also, remember that after 25, the first signs of dry, dehydrated skin can begin to appear. The use of HA-based creams or similar. This stage can help to delay these first signs of skin aging.

When deeper wrinkles appear, a combination of HA-based skincare products and HA dermal fillers are better suited to erase the signs of aging skin. Therefore, with increasing age, it becomes increasingly important to use hyaluronic acid-based cosmetic products regularly. These hydrate and help protect by strengthening the skin’s barrier properties.
