Hello, I am Jinny, a pharmacist.
We are already at the end of October. The weather is nice these days, but how is your skin condition? My lips are already starting to chap, and my face feels tight after washing my face. During seasonal changes where daily temperature differences are large, the moisture balance of the skin is easily broken, so more and more people suffer from skin dryness, redness, and skin troubles.
Today, I would like to introduce ingredient that may be helpful to those with these skin concerns.
Hyaluronic acid is a powerful moisturizing factor
in our body that can contain 300 to 1,000 times its own weight in moisture.

1. Increases Skin Moisture
Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide with
excellent viscoelasticity and moisturizing ability
that exists in human skin, joint fluid, cartilage, and tears. 50% of the hyaluronic acid in our body is located in the skin and plays
a role in retaining moisture and stabilizing the skin structure.
Academics have focused on the role played by hyaluronic acid, which already exists in the human body, and have conducted research to determine whether oral ingestion of hyaluronic acid would have similar benefits. In 2014, a paper was published in the Nutrition Journal on the
effects of hyaluronic acid intake on dry skin.
|
|
“In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, ingested HA (hyaluronic acid) was found to increase skin hydration and improve treatment outcomes for patients with dry skin.”

|
|
2. Promotes Fibroblasts
Fibroblasts
are the most important cells in connective tissue and are cells that
synthesize tissue components such as collagen.
The aforementioned study also showed that
hyaluronic acid promotes fibroblasts.
|
|
“The reports mentioned above suggest that both low- and high-molecular-weight HA (hyaluronic acid) are delivered to the skin and affect fibroblasts, promoting HA (hyaluronic acid) synthesis and cell proliferation, thereby contributing to skin moisturization.”

3. Skin Tissue Repair
As studies on the benefits of hyaluronic acid intake on skin moisturization and cell proliferation accumulate, a paper was published in Front Vet Sci in 2019 suggesting the
possibility of using hyaluronic acid for medical purposes.
|
|
“As a biologically active molecule that regulates tissue repair processes at multiple stages, hyaluronic acid should be considered a safe and effective option for skin repair.”
Reference : Gupta, R. C., Lall, R., Srivastava, A., & Sinha, A. (2019). Hyaluronic Acid: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Trajectory. Frontiers in veterinary science, 6, 192.Steffen Oesser (2020). The oral intake of specific Bioactive Collagen Peptides has a positive effect on hair thickness. Nutrafoods, 1,134-138.

Today, we looked at the various benefits of
hyaluronic acid
through different papers. Please remember that moisturizing
all year round
is essential to keeping your skin healthy.
I hope you have a healthy day both physically and mentally. This was Jinny.
