What's the hype around the anti-wrinkle powerhouse Hyaluronic Acid?

Is Hyaluronic acid really all it’s cracked up to be? In short, Yes.
What is Hyaluronic Acid (HA)?
Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in human tissues such as skin, ligaments, tendons, and nerves. It acts as a connective tissue 'organiser' and helps to hold water. About a third of the total amount of HA in the entire human body is found in the skin. It is the main component of what gives your skin structure, and is responsible for that plump and hydrated look.
How does Hyaluronic acid help you?
As we age, the content of HA in the skin decreases, which may contribute to loss of freshness, hydration, moisture and elasticity in the skin and the development of wrinkles. Using hyaluronic acid in your skincare routine can help restore with its ability to penetrate the skin and unique moisturising and viscoelastic (both viscous and elastic) properties make the skin softened and restore its elasticity contributing a significant anti-wrinkle effect.
