Hyaluronic Acid for Skin: benefits, uses and side effects

LONDON - EntSun -- What does Hyaluronic Acid do for the skin?

Hyaluronic acid naturally is present in our body. Approximately half of the HA in our body is our skin where it binds to water to help retain moisture. HA is the main component of what gives your skin structure. It plays an important role in the wound healing process. As we age the amount of HA  in our skin structure decreases. The natural aging process and exposure to things like UV exposure, tobacco smoke and pollution can decrease its amounts in the skin.

Hyaluronic Acid is an ingredient in face care products characterized by little to non side effects. It is crucial to apply HY on a dump skin. If you're applying hyaluronic acid to a very dry face, it can actually end up drawing moisture from the deeper levels of your skin, which in turn will cause more harm than good and leave your complexion feeling tight and uncomfortable.
