El hyaluronic acid It is a great ally for the care of our skin. Its properties fight against loss of volume and wrinkles, in addition to providing other great benefits. Find out in this article the Types of Hyaluronic Acid and its benefits.
Surely you have heard about the different types of hyaluronic acid that are used in the world of aesthetics, but you may not be clear about their differences. In Clínica del Carmen We inform you of the different types that exist and what are their benefits.
According to their chemical classification, in aesthetic medicine there are two large groups of hyaluronic with two distinct functions: the non-crosslinked formulas that act as protectors and repairers, and the crosslinked ones that are used as fillers. In them, the hyaluronic acid molecules are "intertwined" with each other in order to give greater durability and solidity to the area where it is applied.
Reticulated hyaluronic acids:
Reticulated hyaluronic acid treatments are primarily intended to fill wrinkles and are ideal for recovering lost facial contour volume, grooves and commissures.
Depending on whether the acid is more or less crosslinked, it will have greater density and durability, or it will be more fluid and volatile. This acid is used both in aesthetic treatments of filling and volume, by means of injections, but also to alleviate joint pain; in this case through infiltrations.
Uncrosslinked hyaluronic acid:
In the case of uncrosslinked hyaluronic acid, these junctions are not present, there are mainly free forms of hyaluronic acid. It is precisely that freedom of the molecules that makes the product can be applied in other ways, such as cream or serum.
This difference means that the uncrosslinked hyaluronic acid is mainly used to provide hydration, smoothness and texture over the applied area. It is popularly known as "the vitamins"; It is actually a preparation with a variable proportion of vitamins, amino acids, trace elements and, logically, hyaluronic acid.
What are its benefits?
Whatever the type, hyaluronic acid is mainly used for wrinkle fillers, creating a structure under the skin that increases the volume very naturally. In addition to its application through injections, it is also used as an ingredient in creams and cosmetic products that have a basically moisturizing purpose.
Among the benefits of hyaluronic acid in aesthetic medicine, we want to highlight the following:
- It hydrates the skin and improves the absorption of liquids by the cells.
- It reaffirms the skin helping the restoration and maintenance of skin firmness that has been lost over the years, as it stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that contains properties to regenerate tissues.
- It is a great ally to fight against premature skin aging.
- It provides volume and a good structure when applying facial fillers with an extremely natural result.
- Leaves skin softer. Its moisturizing properties make the skin completely hydrated and reaffirmed; therefore, with a smoother appearance and a very soft touch.
