Hydration: HA is a natural sugar molecule that can hold many times its weight in water, helping to keep skin hydrated and plump.
Anti-aging: HA can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As people age, their bodies produce less HA, which can lead to dryness and visible signs of aging.
Skin elasticity: HA can help make skin more flexible and supple.
Wound healing: HA can help wounds heal faster and reduce scarring.
Treats dry eyes: HA can help treat dry eyes because it helps retain moisture. Eye drops containing 0.2-0.4% HA are often effective.
Protects skin: HA can help protect skin from free radicals, which can break down collagen and lead to blemishes and dark spots.
Relieves acid reflux: Research suggests that HA may help relieve damage caused by stomach acid in the esophagus.
