HYALURONIC ACID

La super molecola per l’idratazione della pelle

The ĂQUA V face serum owes its extraordinary hydrating power to an innovative multi-molecular complex consisting of 5 distinct weights of hyaluronic acid: very high, high, medium, low and very low.

COS’É L’ACIDO IALURONICO

Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide (a sugar polymer) that is naturally produced by our body and is widely found in our skin, both in the epidermis and the dermis. It was discovered in 1934, when two biochemists from Columbia University in New York, Karl Meyer and John W. Palmer, first isolated it in bovine vitreous humour.

Since then, this extraordinary molecule has been the subject of numerous studies highlighting its fundamental role in many biological processes, including collagen production, hydration and skin regeneration. Scientific evidence has led to it becoming an important ingredient in both cosmetics and dermatology.

L’EFFICACIA

Synthesised using advanced technologies that make it perfectly biocompatible, it is a valuable active ingredient for moisturising the skin and giving skin tissue strength, firmness and density. Hyaluronic acid is highly effective thanks to its ability to attract and retain moisture in the extracellular space.

As we age, the production of endogenous hyaluronic acid decreases and the skin begins to lose its ability to retain moisture, leading to gradual dehydration, reduced firmness and elasticity, and the appearance of wrinkles. Introducing products containing hyaluronic acid into your beauty routine can therefore help to compensate for the skin's physiological deficiency.

However, a word of caution: for best results, it is essential that the formula is properly balanced and contains multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid, as in the ĂQUA V face serum. This is the only way to ensure the required multi-level action and the desired moisturising, plumping and revitalising results. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid in particular, thanks to its small size, penetrates the deepest layers of the skin and stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and endogenous hyaluronic acid. These are all essential substances that contribute to better hydration, elasticity and firmness of the skin. Medium molecular weight hyaluronic acid interacts with water in the middle/surface layers of the epidermis, while high molecular weight hyaluronic acid forms a delicate film on the surface of the skin, which plays a vital role in retaining water to achieve the desired lifting effect.
