Siero all’Acido Ialuronico: quando è realmente efficace?

Hyaluronic Acid Serum: when is it really effective?

In the beauty sector there is now more and more talk about it. Hyaluronic acid has become a trending topic certainly not by pure chance, but precisely because of its countless benefits, especially when it comes to the skin. Why is this molecule increasingly sought after? And how do you choose a hyaluronic acid product that is scientifically effective and valid?

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a molecule that is naturally produced by our body and ensures the correct hydration and elasticity of the tissues. In fact, thanks to its high polarity, the molecule is able to bind and retain numerous water molecules and, being very long, has the ability to support connective tissues. Hyaluronic acid also protects the tissues by forming a real barrier from external agents. As time passes, around the age of 25, our body's supply of hyaluronic acid begins to decrease and the skin begins to progressively lose hydration and elasticity, until the first wrinkles appear. To counteract the natural loss of this precious active ingredient, it is essential to start using a specific serum that contains pure hyaluronic acid in high concentrations.

What are the benefits for the skin?

HYALURONIC ACID IS THE KEY ANTI-AGEING INGREDIENT.

It is science that has shown that this molecule can reduce the presence and depth of wrinkles thanks to its specific property of binding to water molecules present in the skin. In addition to fighting wrinkles, the hyaluronic acid serum prevents skin laxity, giving the skin a new tone.

IT HAS A POWERFUL MOISTURIZING EFFECT.

The hyaluronic acid serum, unlike many moisturizing creams, does not stop at the surface of the skin, but hydrates deeply into the innermost layers of the epidermis. Precisely thanks to this ability, creams and lotions that contain hyaluronic acid are also suitable for oilier or combination skin.

IT IS ALSO SUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN.

Hyaluronic acid is incredibly delicate, even though the word “acid” might make you think otherwise. It is extremely effective on all skin types, even the most sensitive and prone to redness or irritation. In fact, it has a powerful natural calming action.

Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid

When we talk about molecular weight, we are referring to the structure and size of the molecule. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid is able to penetrate the deepest layers of the epidermis and stimulate collagen synthesis due to the size and structure of the molecule. Hyaluronic acid molecules can measure from 2,000 to 12/15,000 Daltons: obviously the smaller they are, the more they are able to draw water from the innermost layers of the skin.

How to choose a Hyaluronic Acid serum?

Most of the hyaluronic acid serums on the market do not contain the pure substance or hyaluronic acid crystals, but rather contain the aqueous solution of hyaluronic acid. This solution is often combined with waxes, paraffins, silicones, rubber, glycerin and low-cost synthetic derivatives which only serve to simulate the viscosity of pure hyaluronic acid.

Transparency in the formulation is therefore of fundamental importance and for this reason an attentive consumer must learn to distinguish a good product from the ingredients it contains. Knowing how to recognize and read the INCI of the product is a necessary step: our Pure Jal, for example, is composed of only 3 ingredients, namely water, hyaluronic acid and a latest generation polypeptide, Arginine Lysine, without the use of petrolatum, silicones, parabens, dyes and synthetic fragrances added.

When and how to use Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a precious ally not only for all skin types but also for any age. It is usually recommended to start including hyaluronic acid products in your skincare routine between the ages of 20/25, when the natural reserve of this molecule present in our body begins to decrease.

The hyaluronic acid serum is suitable for every area of ​​the face, including the lips and eye contour. Given its purity, it is also suitable for the most delicate and suffering areas, where the skin is thin and has lost tone, elasticity and hydration. It can be used in all seasons on the face, neck and décolleté and is also perfect as a base for make-up. Generally the serum takes a few seconds to absorb and a minimal quantity of product is needed due to the high concentration of the active ingredients. Apply to perfectly cleansed skin morning and evening before applying cream or make-up with slow, firm movements, without neglecting the neck and décolleté, which are also subject to skin aging.

Our Hyaluronic Acid serums

The specific hyaluronic acid serums of the SurgicTouch line contain the substance in purity and at a low molecular weight.

The revolutionary formula of Pure Jal – as we said above –

it includes only 3 ingredients: the two active ingredients are at maximum concentration and the hyaluronic molecule is less than 2000 Daltons. The synergistic action of Arginine Lysine Polypeptide and hyaluronic acid helps maintain skin hydration and produces a significant anti-aging effect. It is ideal for dehydrated skin with noticeable wrinkles, particularly lined lips and eye contour and the first signs of sagging skin.

Like Pure Jal, the Pure Jal 2 serum contains pure hyaluronic acid, but with a double molecular weight: the smaller molecule is able to penetrate the deeper layers of the epidermis, while the other maintains hydration even in the layers more superficial skin in the most effective and long-lasting way possible. The result is a feeling of firmness and a luminous appearance on the skin and its characteristic "sandwich" hydration effect makes it a powerful latest generation cosmeceutical.

The One Peptide Hydrating Serum slows down aging with an immediately visible filling effect. Its specific formula, also designed for men's skin, is composed of innovative peptides and hyaluronic acid in maximum percentage to give a visible and long-lasting anti-wrinkle effect, give tone and volume to the face and maintain long-lasting hydration even in drier skin.
