Wrinkles are being treated in various ways. The common method is cosmetic procedure. Filling the space below the wrinkles is most painless procedure to treat wrinkles. Collagen and fat are commonly implanted to remove wrinkles. Hyaluronic Acid is becoming popular as an implant. Let us find out more about what is Hyaluronic Acid and how it is used.
Hyaluronic Acid is naturally found in young persons’ skin and body joints. Hyaluronic acid helps maintain water level in the skin. It also fills the space in the skin between collagen and elastin fibers. It gives volume and fullness to the skin. It acts as a cushion against mechanical damage of the skin. With aging, the level of Hyaluronic Acid reduces in body. Smoking also reduces level of Hyaluronic acid in body. Hyaluronic acid is also known as a glycosaminoglycan.
Hyaluronic acid skin implants-
Hyaluronic acid is injected in the skin like collagen implants. But unlike collagen, allergic reactions are much lesser with Hyaluronic acid implants. The injections have to be repeated periodically (about six months) because the injected Hyaluronic acid gets broken and slowly gets absorbed by the body.
Wrinkles, lines around the mouth, smokers lines, frown lines, crows feet, smile lines and acne scars may be treated with Hyaluronic acid implants. Hyaluronic acid implants are also used to redefine lip borders. Hyaluronic acid is sold as brand -Restylane in the USA.
