Hyaluronic acid is a molecule that occurs naturally in the
body and is produced by Fibroblasts, which are designed to hydrate the tissues,
giving them firmness and plasticity.
With the passage of time the amount of Hyaluronic acid
present in the organism tends to decrease, hence the aging of the skin with the
appearance of wrinkles and the loss of elasticity of the tissues, such as those
of the joints. The Hyaluronic acid absorbs water, the holds and releases it in
accordance with the needs of the organism and therefore maintains the proper
hydration and moisture of the tissues.
Not only that this molecule lubricates your joints and
absorbs shocks within them. The miraculous properties of Hyaluronic acid do not
end there: this substance has a protective function
by virtue of its lattice structure and acts as a filter against toxic substances. It also has an anti-inflammatory and healing and repair damaged tissues.

Hyaluronic acid is produced industrially today from
bacterial cultures (a time was extracted from animal sources, in particular
cockscombs). It is used as a filler to fight the imperfections and reshape
hands, breasts and lips.
It is also used in ophthalmology for the production of
artificial tears in the treatment of dry eye syndrome, to treat lesions and
inflammation of the tissues and as a lubricant for the joints, in which case it
is injected locally.
