WHAT IS HA (hyaluronic acid) FILLER 

• Hyaluronic acid is a type of sugar (polysaccharide) that is present in body tissues, such as in skin and cartilage.

• Hyaluronic Acid (HA), also known as hyaluronan or hyaluronate, occurs naturally throughout the human body and most animals.  It’s primary function is to bind to water which gives it a viscous “Jello” type texture.

• HA is becoming one of the most researched substances in the medical community today. Thousands of studies and trials including in the areas of orthopedics, dermatology and eye surgery are showing much promise.

• Hyaluronic acid is essential for healthy youthful looking skin and for the health of synovial fluid which supports cushioning of the bones and joints throughout the body.

• The skin responds best when hyaluronic acid is introduced from the inside out – the dermis to the epidermis.

• Hyaluronic acid supplementation is effective due to its capability to be absorbed through the intestinal tract.

• Supplementation with hyaluronic acid is crucial due to decreased synthesis and depletion that occurs with aging.
