The difference between hyaluronic acid and water light needle

Many female friends don’t know the difference between hyaluronic acid and hydrating injections, so they often use the wrong skin care products, leading to some side effects. In fact, there is a big difference between hyaluronic acid and hydrating injections. First of all, hyaluronic acid, also known as transparent acid, has better compatibility with human skin, but the function of hydrating injections is whitening and anti-wrinkle, and it can also supplement the body with vitamins and anti-aging.

Hyaluronic acid

The medical name of hyaluronic acid is hyaluronic acid, which is a large molecular weight glucosamine polysaccharide that already exists in our own skin. It is responsible for storing moisture and increasing skin elasticity. It has good stability and compatibility with the human body, so it is a safe and natural skin filling material.

The main ingredient of hydrating injections, like hyaluronic acid, is hyaluronic acid. The difference is that hydrating injections add many other ingredients to achieve different beauty purposes. Just like a buffet, you can add whatever you want to achieve the desired effect. For example, adding botulinum toxin can eliminate wrinkles, adding placenta can make the skin more delicate, adding vitamin C can whiten the skin, and adding autologous serum can resist aging.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid has a high degree of cross-linking, the product has high hardness and viscosity, the molecular weight is larger than that of hyaluronic acid, and the shaping and supporting power are better. Compared with hyaluronic acid injection, you can think of hyaluronic acid as gel-like aloe vera gel.

Compared with hyaluronic acid, the degree of cross-linking of hyaluronic acid injection is low, and hyaluronic acid injection can be imagined as aloe vera solution. The molecular weight of the hydrating needle is small, the hardness and viscosity are small, and the shaping and supporting power are also smaller.

Cross-linking is a necessary means to stabilize the properties of injectable hyaluronic acid products. Since the human body can produce hyaluronic acid, uncross-linked hyaluronic acid can be metabolized within 1-2 days after being injected subcutaneously. Therefore, hyaluronic acid with a low degree of cross-linking cannot be used as a filling material. In order to avoid the degradation of hyaluronic acid, we need to use hyaluronic acid products with larger molecules when shaping the body.
