Hyaluronic acid is an essential component of our skin and serves as a support for collagen and elastin fibers. Its main function is to keep the skin smooth and hydrated, since it is capable of absorbing up to 1000 times its weight in water. From the age of 20, the skin loses its ability to retain water. That's when we start to see small wrinkles appear on our skin. Any cream or treatment that contains Hyaluronic Acid will substantially help our skin absorb moisture better.
