Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid

Hydrolyzed Hyaluronic Acid is created by breaking down high molecular weight hyaluronic acid into smaller fragments (typically 10-50 kDa), allowing it to penetrate deeper into the skin's layers compared to its larger counterpart. This enzymatically or chemically fragmented form maintains the moisture-binding capacity of regular hyaluronic acid while offering enhanced skin penetration and a lighter, less tacky skin feel. Formulators choose it specifically for anti-aging products where deeper hydration is desired, as it can reach the dermis to provide volumizing effects and stimulate collagen synthesis, while also providing surface hydration.
