I have heard a lot about how hyaluronic acid can make our skin looking firmer with that natural glow. While that is theoretical, I have never experienced the power hyaluronic acid on my skin until I visited DrSpa® last month. DrSpa® is a skin, body and wellness clinic which uses DrGL® professional range of medic-aesthetic products. When the therapist treated my face with DrSpa® HA+ Optimiser, the result is shocking. My skin obviously looks fresher and younger than before.
In my article, I would like to share with my fellow Daddy what is hyaluronic acid (if you don’t know what it is) and how it can help all busy Dads (and Mums) look good and youthful.
Hyaluronic Acid Is A Clear Gooey Compound
Hyaluronic acid, likewise called hyaluronan or HA, is a transparent, gooey compound that is naturally produced by your body. The most considerable quantities of it are discovered in your skin, connective tissue and eyes. Its primary function is to store water so that your tissues are well hydrated.
As our skin ages, it ends up being drier as its capability to retain water drops, which leads to the loss of firmness and increasing of fine lines. When hyaluronic acid is used on our skin, it rehydrates our skin, making it look plumper and finally, reduced wrinkles.
Did you know that hyaluronic acid can keep as much as 1,000 times its weight in water? Its capability to bind and take in water is essential in assisting our skin hydrated and maintain its elasticity.
Children are born with a high level of hyaluronic acid, which keeps their skin plump and smooth. That’s why there is a term “baby soft skin” in many skincare products. Sadly, the quantity of hyaluronic acid in our skin reduces with age and it drops substantially after the age of 40. Ouch!
