Admittedly: There are plenty of anti-ageing substances in the cosmetics industry, and there are more every day. But only a few, embedded in creams, actually work miracles. Hyaluronic acid does. So it's no wonder that the hype surrounding hyaluronic acid, the number one wrinkle killer, is currently experiencing a huge revival, is it?

Hyaluronic acid in the body: water reservoir & synovial fluid

In chemical terms, hyaluronic acid is a chain of sugar molecules that is produced by connective tissue cells. It is found almost everywhere in our body and serves as a lubricant for the joints, stores water (one gram binds around six liters) and keeps the skin nice and plump. The problem: as we age, the body's own production of hyaluronic acid decreases. The result? The skin loses its elasticity, forms wrinkles and dries out.

The effect in creams: wrinkle filler & complexion refresher

A substance that can store so much water is added to creams to replenish the skin's moisture reserves. This means that where (dryness) wrinkles were just visible, the skin cells soak up the moisture and smooth out wrinkles. In short: the complexion appears plumper, but also a lot fresher as it is intensively hydrated.

Production information: Fountain of youth from the laboratory

Initially, hyaluronic acid was extracted from cockscombs. Nowadays, however, it is only produced biochemically in the laboratory in order to rule out allergic reactions to animal proteins. There is now even bio-hyaluronic acid, which is obtained from bacteria. Top: As hyaluronic acid is not a foreign substance, it is very well tolerated.

How the professional helps: immediate tightening with "fillers"

Dermatologists can also inject hyaluronic acid directly into wrinkles to plump them up. Plus point: the substance is broken down again naturally. The firming effect lasts for up to twelve months.
