Description

Specific Gravity, H2O-1, Density: 30 - 200 kg/m3

Biotechnologically produced from glucose, soy peptone & yeast extract. It is a natural polysaccharide (large sugar molecule) that occurs in various tissues. Responsible for tissue hydration, lubrication, & tissue stability. Hyaluronic Acid is a mucopolysacharide that exists naturally in all living organisms. As the protein can hold up to 500-1000 times its own weigh in water it is known to play a vital part in the ageing process once levels are depleted in the skin. Maintaining levels of Hyaluronic Acid, is said to reduce wrinkles caused by dehydration and general ageing. Its no odor and soluble in water, PH in 5-8.5.

Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the dermis. Its water absorption abilities and large molecular structure allow the epidermis to achieve greater suppleness, proper plasticity and turgor. Hyaluronic acid is a natural moisturizer with excellent water building capabilities. It is a true liquid in that it can be diluted and will exhibit a liquid's normal viscous flow properties. When applied to the skin, hyaluronic acid forms a viscoelastic film in a manner similar to the way it hold water in the intercellular matrix of dermal connective tissues. This performance and behavior suggests that hyaluronic acid makes an ideal moisturizer base, allowing for the delivery of other agents to the skin. Manufacturers claim that the use of hyaluronic acid in cosmetics results in the need for much lower levels of lubricants and emollients in a formulation, thereby providing an essentially greaseless product. Furthermore, its ability to retain water gives immediate smoothness to rough skin surfaces and significantly improves skin appearance. As scientific research into hyaluronic acid's role in the skin continues, it is clear that the outcome will have a noted impact on cosmetic researches and the industry as a whole.
