- Sodium Hyaluronate (Low to Medium Molecular Weight)
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide found abundantly in the extracellular matrix of human connective tissues, particularly in the skin and synovial fluid of joints. In the context of rapid weight loss (such as during GLP-1 therapy) or natural aging, endogenous HA production declines, leading to reduced tissue turgor and volume loss (e.g., "Ozempic Face"). Oral supplementation with specific molecular weights of HA has been shown to stimulate endogenous synthesis by fibroblasts and increase skin moisture from the inside out.
