Hyaluronic acid is a molecule naturally present in the human body, which is produced by the cells of the skin, joints, cartilage and connective tissue. It is known for its ability to retain water, which gives it an important role in the hydration and elasticity of the skin. As we age, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the body decreases, which can contribute to the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.

In aesthetic medicine, hyaluronic acid is used as a filler to smooth wrinkles and skin folds, increase the volume of the lips, cheekbones and other parts of the face, and improve the overall appearance of the skin. Hyaluronic acid injections are generally painless and without significant health risks.

It is important to note that the use of hyaluronic acid should be performed by a qualified health care professional, such as a physician or plastic surgeon, to minimize risks and achieve the best possible results.
