Abstract

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural component of the body and especially of the skin, which exerts an important role in its hydration, regeneration and healing process.
HA has shown a wide range of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antitumor, antidiabetic, antiaging and skin repair. Moreover, HA contributes in regulating various biological processes and maintaining homeostasis in the body.
However, with increasing age, HA is not reproduced as quickly as it is degraded, contributing to the atrophy, dehydration and loss of elasticity of the skin. In addition, exposure to UV radiation, pollutants and stress lead to increased HA degradation and a subsequent decrease in its protection from free radicals, contributing further to premature aging.
The great potential of HA in cosmetic science has stimulated the interest of cosmetic industry which, through new technologies, can produce hyaluronic acid and several novel derivatives in order to increase both its residence time in various human tissues and its anti-inflammatory properties. The present study includes different types and ways of incorporating HA into cosmetic products to optimize its dermal delivery as well as to increase the action of this cosmetic ingredient.
