Hüaluronaaniga

Hüaluronaaniga, often referred to as hyaluronic acid, is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found in the human body, particularly in connective tissues, skin, and the eyes. It plays a crucial role in maintaining tissue hydration, lubrication, and structural integrity. Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide composed of repeating disaccharide units of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine. Its unique molecular structure allows it to bind and retain large amounts of water, contributing to the volume and suppleness of tissues.

In the medical and cosmetic fields, hyaluronic acid is utilized for its remarkable moisturizing and viscoelastic properties. It is a common ingredient in skincare products, serums, and moisturizers designed to hydrate the skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve skin elasticity. In aesthetic medicine, hyaluronic acid fillers are widely used for facial rejuvenation, aiming to restore lost volume, contour the face, and plump lips. These fillers are biocompatible and biodegradable, gradually breaking down within the body over time.

Beyond its aesthetic applications, hyaluronic acid has therapeutic uses. It is employed in ophthalmology to treat dry eye syndrome and as a viscoelastic agent during eye surgery. In orthopedics, it is injected into joints to alleviate pain and improve mobility in individuals with osteoarthritis, acting as a lubricant and shock absorber. Research continues to explore its potential in wound healing and tissue regeneration.
