Hyalogic Facelift Serum - Are you ready to raise some brows?

by Carly Neubert, BA, NC on July 05, 2023

Hyalogic was co-founded in 2000 to bring research into optimal Hyaluronic Acid supplementation for everyone. They have been at the forefront for researching, developing, and producing hyaluronic acid formulations. With decades of experience, they are a reputable and trustworthy brand to look into for opportunities for better joint and skin hydration and mobility. 

Hyalogic uses a process called “Hyalock” to test and examine ingredients for stability and quality. Hyalogic puts a “lock on their quality by adhering to the following:

  • Products are non-animal derived and vegan-friendly
  • Ingredients are tested for compatibility
  • Preservatives are tested for compatibility
  • Products go through quality control testing
  • The finished product is analyzed

Because of these strict regulations, Hyalogic has earned a reputation in the industry for their high quality Hyaluronic Acid. 

You may recognize Hyalogic’s best selling formulas, including Synthovial Seven. This joint formula is available in different strengths for humans, dogs, cats, and horses. 

Anti-aging skincare has been an important part of our humanity’s growth and development in the sciences. From Ancient Egypt to TikTok trends, skincare speaks to many people wanting to improve their appearance for cosmetic or medical purposes. 

Ancient Egypt is where we find our first anti-aging remedy. Cleopatra took daily baths in donkey milk. As we moved into the 1500s, women put pieces of raw meat on their faces to reduce wrinkles. In the late 1800s and 1900s, there were many formulas created to reduce wrinkles, from smoothing creams to retinol. Even though the ways we tried to brighten, tighten, or smooth skin in ancient times may seem odd, we can see that some of the ingredients used, do indeed show some benefits (donkey milk for example has alpha hydroxy acids that can assist with exfoliation and softening). 

Your body makes hyaluronic acid to lubricate your joints, your eyes, and your skin. Along with collagen, hyaluronic acid makes skin appear and feel plump and moist. HA is a popular supplement for both skin and joints.  

Now, we see many brands working their way into the skincare industry to capitalize on trends. It is important to know not only what active ingredients you are looking for, but know about the brand and manufacturer you are purchasing from. 

The secret to Hyalogic’s success is their quality of the hyaluronic acid (HA).  Your skin cells can only absorb hyaluronic acid that has a high molecular weight.  That means that cheaper products that use heavier or lighter HA molecules won’t be absorbed into your skin or your body. Hyalogic uses HA that is exactly the right weight (2.4-3 kDA) for your body to absorb and use for smooth skin and lubricated joints. 

Buzz Words to Know

  • Fine lines: This is commonly used alongside the word “wrinkles” to describe the natural aging process’s effects on our skin. Fine lines precede wrinkles and look like small creases on the skin. As they are the predecessors to wrinkles, they are closer to the surface of your skin. 
  • Wrinkles: Wrinkles are deeper in the skin and occur when your skin loses elasticity and firmness over time. As your skin is more exposed to the sun’s UV rays and pollution, we can see an increased risk over time for fine lines and wrinkles. 
  • Hyaluronic Acid: This is quite a popular ingredient in the skincare industry at the moment. Hyaluronic acid (HA) can be found in our body’s tissues. It contributes to our skin’s structure and can support hydrated skin. HA also can assist in the healing process for wounds and moisturizing the skin. 
  • Antioxidants:The buzz around antioxidants began in the 90s. While antioxidants should not be viewed as quick fixes for ailments, combined with other nutrients they can be great options for wellness. You can find antioxidant-rich food options in fruits, veggies, certain nuts, some seafood, and seeds.  
  • Anti-aging formulas: Formulas with this kind of language are intended to slow the effects of the aging process. Whether it be restoring moisture to the skin, firming the skin, or reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, this is a very commonly found benefit in skincare marketing. 

Episilk Facelift Serum

Episilk Facelift Serum combines Hyaluronic Acid with Pepha®-Tight to create a light serum that can help your skin feel and appear firmer and more youthful. This is achieved by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Pepha®-Tight creates a novel interaction that supports firmer and more youthful skin. Pullulan, an ingredient in this formula, works as an antioxidant and hydrator for the skin. Algae extracts have become quite popular in skincare products, as a 2018 article describes. Algae extracts, such as Pullulan provide hydration and antioxidant properties. They also help your skin cells to retain moisture.  All of these plant properties add up to your skin feeling and appearing tighter and more youthful.  

FAQs

How do I use Hyalogic Episilk Facelift Serum?

Use Hyalogic Episilk Facelift Serum by lightly dampening your face and applying to the desired areas after cleansing in the morning or evening.

What does hyaluronic acid serum do to your face?

Many hyaluronic acid (HA) serums are not easily absorbed into your facial skin.  Hyalogic uses high molecular weight HA to ensure your skin absorbs the hyaluronic acid in Hyalogic Episilk Facelift Serum. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by adding moisture and volume to your skin. 

How do you get rid of fine lines?

Fine lines are the result of the aging process, lack of moisture, and oxidative stress. Eating a diet rich in antioxidants will help decrease oxidative stress.  Using a hyaluronic acid serum will draw moisture into your skin cells and can reduce fine lines.

At what age do fine lines appear?

Fine lines begin to appear in your mid 20s. If your diet and lifestyle contribute a lot of oxidative stress, you may see lines earlier. Genetics also play a part in the appearance of fine lines and skin health in general. 

Are fine lines permanent?

Fine lines form because of the expression or movement you make with your face. They are permanent unless you do something to smooth, fill in or erase (laser treatments) them. Hyalogic Episilk Facelift Serum adds moisture to skin cells which can plump and smooth the appearance of fine lines. 

Does vitamin C get rid of fine lines?

Yes, vitamin C is an antioxidant that can decrease fine lines. Vitamin C serum or treatments are best used at night so that the antioxidant power is used within your skin instead of being damaged by sun exposure. 

Does drinking water help with fine lines?

Yes, staying hydrated will support your skin’s elasticity and may reduce fine lines.  

Is it good to use hyaluronic acid serum daily?

Yes, you can use hyaluronic acid serum daily to maintain hydration and moisture in your skin.  

Does hyaluronic acid remove dark spots?

Yes, hyaluronic acid may remove dark spots by protecting your skin's cells from dehydration and oxidative stress (usually from the sun).  

Further Readings

Utilizing Hyaluronic Acid for treatment and prevention of mobility-related issues has become popular in recent years. With many adults suffering from osteoarthritis or other instances of joint-related pain, finding a natural and accessible option is of the utmost importance. A 2022 study looked at the popularity of analyzing Hyaluronic Acid and osteoarthritis and found that the number of publications have steadily increased. Not only does this show that more people are looking into natural alternatives, but it means that more research is being done into the ailments that can see benefits and the people that should really consider Hyaluronic Acid as a new part of their daily routine. I recommend Hyalogic's Synthovial Seven.  You can learn more about it in this blog. 

Aging is a natural progression for everyone. We all want to look and feel our best. Hyalogic Episilk Facelift Serum is a natural way to keep your skin looking and feeling hydrated and youthful.
