What are the differences between hydrating needles and hyaluronic acid

Water-light needles and hyaluronic acid are both common cosmetic surgery methods. Water-light needles and hyaluronic acid have certain similarities, but their differences are also quite obvious. First, their ingredients are different. Secondly, the degree of cross-linking will also be different. In addition, the final effect will also be different. For those who want to undergo this kind of cosmetic surgery, they should consult a regular doctor in detail.

1. The difference between hyaluronic acid and hyaluronic acid injection: different ingredients

Hyaluronic acid

The medical name of hyaluronic acid is hyaluronic acid, which is a large molecular weight glucosamine polysaccharide that already exists in our own skin. It is responsible for storing moisture and increasing skin elasticity. It has good stability and compatibility with the human body, so it is a safe and natural skin filling material.

The main ingredient of hydrating injections, like hyaluronic acid, is hyaluronic acid. The difference is that hydrating injections add many other ingredients to achieve different beauty purposes. Just like a buffet, you can add whatever you want to achieve the desired effect. For example, adding botulinum toxin can eliminate wrinkles, adding placenta can make the skin more delicate, adding vitamin C can whiten the skin, and adding autologous serum can resist aging.

2. The difference between hyaluronic acid and hyaluronic acid injection: different degree of cross-linking

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid has a high degree of cross-linking, the product has high hardness and viscosity, the molecular weight is larger than that of hyaluronic acid, and the shaping and supporting power are better. Compared with hyaluronic acid injection, you can think of hyaluronic acid as gel-like aloe vera gel.

Water light needle

Compared with hyaluronic acid, the degree of cross-linking of hyaluronic acid injection is low, and hyaluronic acid injection can be imagined as aloe vera solution. The molecular weight of the hydrating needle is small, the hardness and viscosity are small, and the shaping and supporting power are also smaller.

3. The difference between hyaluronic acid and water light needle: different effects

Hyaluronic acid

Small molecule hyaluronic acid is suitable for repairing damaged skin and plays a role in moisturizing and rejuvenating the skin. For example, YVOIRE hydro is a small molecule hyaluronic acid.

The main effect of hydration injection is to replenish water and moisturize the skin, so that dry skin can regain its elasticity. In addition, some whitening ingredients such as vitamin C are added to the hydrating injection to improve skin tone and shrink pores.
