Hyaluronic Acid: The Holy Grail of Hydration in ÈYES Skincare
By Dr. Rachna Murthy
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a powerhouse ingredient in ÈYES skincare, providing deep hydration and supporting skin health. Interestingly, this same ingredient is also a staple in injectable skin boosters and dermal fillers, reinforcing its essential role in dermatology and aesthetic treatments.
What is Hyaluronic Acid?
HA is naturally present in all living cells*, making it a fundamental component of connective tissues, joints, eyes, and skin. In humans:
🔹 A 70 kg adult contains approximately 15g of HA, with one-third replaced daily.
🔹 HA production declines with age, leading to skin thinning, dryness, and joint stiffness—one of the key factors in aging and arthritis.
HA in Skincare vs. Injectables
💧 Skincare Benefits:
- Multi-weight HA formulations (like those in ÈYES skincare) optimize hydration from the surface to deeper skin layers.
- High molecular weight (MW) HA creates a smoothing, protective barrier.
- Low MW HA penetrates deeper, promoting long-term skin repair and elasticity.
💉 Injectable Benefits:
- High MW HA (>1,500 kDa) is used in joint treatments for its viscoelasticity and anti-inflammatory benefits.
- Cross-linked HA in dermal fillers provides structural support while maintaining a natural look and movement.
