What is Hyaluronic Acid Injection?
As we grow older, our skin will show signs of aging and cause wrinkles and facial sagging. One of the main reasons why this happens is that the hyaluronic acid in our body decreases with age. Hyaluronic Acid is a type of mucopolysaccharide and is one of the components that make up the skin and joints of the body. Natural hyaluronic acid is readily degraded even when it is injected into the skin. Hyaluronic acid injection promotes anti-aging and aims to fill in your wrinkles, sagging, indentations, and make them inconspicuous.
Other than, it can also be used to raise your nose, put out your chin, make a torn bag, make your lips and cheeks plumper.
How It Works
Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in the soft connective tissues, keeping the tissues hydrated and firm. So when it is injected in areas such as nasolabial folds, glabellar lines, cheeks and others, the hyaluronic acid formulation in the dermal fillers acts as a support to facial structures and tissues that have lost volume.
It binds water molecules, ensuring the skin to be hydrated and plump. It also helps the skin to be supple, fresh, smooth and lifted. Other than that, hyaluronic acid injection is also said to boost collagen production.
