Hyaluronic acid reduces inflammation by modulating the immune response and soothing irritated skin. Topical application can alleviate redness and discomfort associated with inflammatory skin conditions.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) possesses anti-inflammatory capabilities through various mechanisms. It can modulate the inflammatory response by interacting with immune cells and reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. When applied topically, HA can help soothe irritated skin, reduce redness, and alleviate discomfort associated with inflammatory skin conditions. The size and molecular weight of HA can significantly influence its mechanism of action and efficacy in reducing inflammation. Lower molecular weight HA may penetrate deeper into the skin but can sometimes paradoxically trigger inflammation if the skin barrier is compromised. Higher molecular weight HA remains on the surface and provides a protective barrier, promoting healing and reducing irritation.
