Hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally present in our body and is essential for hydration, as it captures and retains water within the deep layers of the epidermis. Wrinkles appear when the hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases. With technological advances, it has become possible to manufacture hyaluronic acid in the laboratory and inject it into the skin in the form of a gel. It retains water and blends with the hyaluronic acid in the dermis to create a filling effect.
