Hyaluronic acid is a natural component that is present in almost all human tissues and performs several important functions in the body: distribution and transmission of fluid in the tissues. If we skip the medical terminology, we can call this substance “intelligent”, as it transports water directly to those areas of the body which need it most. Water-saturated tissues resist to compression, thus preventing the formation of mechanical wrinkles on the skin surface. Fibroblasts (special cells of the connective tissue) contribute to the production of hyaluronic acid in the body.
Hyaluronic acid helps the lips to be tenderer and protects them from wrinkling, dryness. And, thanks to the acid, the lips skin becomes more elastic.
Contraindications.
The acid may not be injected in the lips in case of oral herpes. It is ironic, but many patients (after the treatment) get herpes.
