I got some questions regarding these 2 products. I heard that those Juverderm(sp?) and Restylane(sp?) injections to those nasal folds or lines are basically just Hyaluronic Acid. That being said, I was thinking if I use a 100% HA serum (like the one from PSF), and apply it to my lines & folds, then it would work just like those injections at least temporarily? I know I'm making a false assumption here haha  but did anyone use the PSF HA serum and notice any changes? Or other brand of HA serum? Also, how do I apply HA serum? Before moisturizer/sunscreen or after? Or can I mix it with ss to apply? 
My 2nd question is the PSF Vit C serum 15%. It is said to contain HA in it too. So if I use this serum, does that mean I get the benefits of both instead of applying 2 different products? But I also heard that it oxidizes fast compared to the CellularSkinRx Vit C serum. So yeah, anyone can compare the both in terms of oxidation and effectiveness? Thanks so much!  |

I have not noticed a change in my nasolabial fold since using the PSF HA serum. I either mix it in with another moisturizer or use it in lieu of a moisturizer. I may not be using it to the best effect, since I'm pretty new to this type of regimen.
I really, really like the PSF vit c, but I only went through half the bottle before it oxidized. I am not sure if I can justify the price again, and am thinking of turning towards DIY vit c. |

The most obvious feature of HA is to keep moisture and to prevent its loss. You can use the serum between your cleansing and moisturizer/sunscreen. It does little to enlighten skin tone or to reduce ageing signs.
I haven't used PSF or CellularSkinRx, so I can't answer the 2nd question. |

| If you apply vitamin c 15%, I think you don't need to use HA serum again. Anyway, you need to top-up with any moisture to keep moist in your skin. Unless HA will absorb the moist from your skin instead and your skin become drier. |
