Formulating Hyaluronic Acid Gel: Calculation and Combining Different Types

คำถาม

I would like to ask about formulating a Hyaluronic Acid gel. If I want a gel with 1.5% active Double Hyaluron, how much percentage of Double Hyaluron Liquid should I use per percentage of water? Based on the website information that Double Hyaluron Liquid is a liquid form of Double Hyaluron (Standard, Nano) with a concentration of 5% Hyaluronic Acid (consisting of 2.5% Nano Molecule and 2.5% Standard Molecule). Also, can I use Hyaluronic Acid 4D and Hyaluronic Acid Japan in the same gel formula? Will combining Double Hyaluron + Hyaluronic Acid Japan + Hyaluronic Acid 4D result in better moisturization? Will using multiple types mixed together feel stickier on the skin than using a single type?

Hyaluronic Acid Gel Formulation

Double Hyaluron Liquid Calculation

To create a gel with 1.5% active Hyaluronic Acid using Double Hyaluron Liquid (which contains 5% active Hyaluronic Acid), you would need to use 30% of the Double Hyaluron Liquid in your formula. The remaining 70% would be water or other desired ingredients in your gel base.

Calculation: (1.5% target active HA / 5% active HA in Double Hyaluron Liquid) * 100% = 30% Double Hyaluron Liquid.

Combining Different Hyaluronic Acid Types

Yes, you can combine Double Hyaluron Liquid, Hyaluronic Acid (Japan), and 4D Hyaluronic Acid in the same gel formulation.

  • Improved Moisturization: Combining these different types can provide enhanced moisturization benefits. Each type has different molecular sizes and properties:

    • Double Hyaluron Liquid provides both deep hydration (Nano size) and surface hydration/film-forming (Standard size).
    • Hyaluronic Acid (Japan) contains a wide range of molecular sizes, contributing to hydration across different layers.
    • 4D Hyaluronic Acid forms a 3D network on the skin surface and contains multiple molecular sizes (including cationic), helping to trap moisture and provide hydration at various depths.
      Using a combination allows you to target hydration on the skin surface, within the epidermis, and potentially deeper, leading to more comprehensive and longer-lasting moisture retention.
  • Skin Feel (Stickiness): Combining multiple types of hyaluronic acid, especially those with higher molecular weights or structures that form films (like the Standard size in Double Hyaluron, the larger sizes in Japan type, and the 3D network in 4D), can potentially result in a more viscous texture and a greater feeling of stickiness on the skin compared to using a single type or lower total concentrations. The final feel will depend on the total concentration of all hyaluronic acids combined and the specific ratio of each type used.

In summary, combining these hyaluronic acid types is possible and can offer superior hydration, but you may need to adjust the total concentration to manage the skin feel and avoid excessive stickiness.
