Dr. Schlessinger's beginner's guide to hyaluronic acid
Board-certified dermatologist and LovelySkin CEO Dr. Joel Schlessinger explains how to make sure you’re getting the most out of your hyaluronic acid skin care products.
Video Summary
Found naturally in the body, hyaluronic acid acts as a humectant to bind moisture to dehydrated skin. Dr. Schlessinger regularly uses hyaluronic acid in his practice in the form of dermal fillers. However, it also provides a number of benefits as a topical skin care ingredient.
For instance, it helps skin temporarily appear firmer, smoother and more youthful. It also balances skin’s oil production, making it a great moisturizer for any skin type.
It’s best to use hyaluronic acid products on skin that’s slightly damp from cleansing. This allows it to act as a hydration booster, which binds to water molecules and increases the moisture content in your skin.
With so many hyaluronic acid products out there, a variety of skin types can benefit from it—whether your skin is dry, damaged or just needs a little TLC.
