Acido ialuronico

WHAT IS IT?

 


Hyaluronic acid
is the most important of the mucopolysaccharides contained in the dermis. Mucopolysaccharides, together with noncollagenous proteins, make up the gelatinous, consolidating substance that contains the collagen and elastin proteins and represents the connective tissue of the skin. It is a naturally occurring substance in the human body, located specifically within connective tissue, which is the type of structural tissue that makes up among others; cartilage, bone, dentin and adipose tissue that is that part of the dermis capable of retaining water. The highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid in the human body are located in thevitreous humor (i.e., the gelatinous mass contained within the eye) and joints.

 

CHARACTERISTICS:

 

The main characteristic of the
Hyaluronic Acid
is that it has a very high water-holding capacity, so in cosmetics, it is used in dry skin care products. It is extracted from umbilical cords, cockscombs or by an innovative fermentation process of a particular type of streptococci.


  • Each gram of hyaluronic acid can capture up to 6 liters of water
    : this makes it possible to limit the imperceptible natural phenomenon of trans-epidermal water loss, preventing dehydration. Even minute concentrations of Hyaluronic Acid are effective, but regular use is necessary to maximize its benefits.
  • It is the
    Molecule that attracts and retains more water within the skin
    : due to its hydrophilic nature retains water in both the dermis and epidermis like a sponge.
  • It is the
    anti-aging molecule par excellence
    : Hyaluronic Acid contained in the epidermis gradually disappears over the years (by age 50, only half of it remains), causing a thinning of the stratum corneum. In addition, it no longer plays its fundamental role in the renewal of the epidermis, weakening the cohesion between the various layers. As a result, the effectiveness of the barrier function is reduced and the skin becomes dehydrated, becoming more vulnerable to stresses.
    The aging process accelerates
    .
  • Within the dermis, the quantity of this molecule remains unchanged, but it is its quality that deteriorates, thus reducing its adhesion action for the support fibers, which make up the structure of the extracellular matrix. In fact, inside the skin it retains water and takes on the shape of a spiral, increasing its volume. Its deterioration causes sagging of the skin, which loses tone and elasticity.
  • Due to its high molecular weight,
    Protects the skin and retains water on the surface of the epidermis
    . When fragmented, the low molecular weight allows penetration within the dermis, improving its firmness. When injected, on the other hand, hyaluronic acid acts deeply, making the skin firmer and smoother.
  • Hyaluronic acid is produced by various types of cells, namely: by fibroblasts and keratinocytes. This is where the 56% of hyaluronic acid of our body.
  • It has properties humectants: (absorbs and retains moisture),
    moisturizers
    (increases the water content of the skin and keeps it soft and smooth), anti aging (also stimulates skin repair),
    healing
    and is.
    dermocompatible
    .

 

MOLECULAR WEIGHTS:

 

There are various molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid, the most widely used in cosmetics are:


  1. HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT HYALURONIC ACID.
    : It is mentioned in theINCI as: SODIUM HYALURONATE. Usually present in formulas at a maximum concentration of 1 percent. High molecular weight Hyaluronic acid remains on the surface of the skin, creating a kind of “film” capable of retaining water. Precisely because of this ability, it is important that the percentage present in the formula is very low, otherwise the effect will be opposite to that desired. It acts on the surface ensuring effective hydration and has a film-forming action by binding to the stratum corneum with a tensor and protective effect.

  2. LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HYALURONIC ACID.
    : It is mentioned in theINCI as: HYDROLIZED HYALURONIC ACID. It is usually found in formulations in a concentration ranging from 0.01% to 0.5%. Due to its small size, low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is able to penetrate the stratum corneum, reaching the epidermis. It acts by stimulating the physiological production of proteins responsible for skin firmness and elasticity also leading to a decrease in wrinkle depth. Studies with low molecular weight hyaluronic acid after 8 weeks of treatment reveal increased skin elasticity, increased skin hydration, and deep reduction of wrinkles.
