Why amino acids matter

Amino acids are the raw material of skin: every collagen fibre, elastin strand and structural protein is assembled from them. In aesthetic medicine, supplying the right amino acids at the right moment – especially when a treatment has just stimulated the skin to rebuild – directly supports the quality of the regeneration that follows.

Amino acids in regenerative protocols

• Collagen precursors – glycine makes up roughly one third of collagen; proline directly stimulates its production; lysine cross-links the fibres.
• BCAAs (valine, leucine, isoleucine) – branched-chain amino acids regulate type I and III tropocollagen synthesis via the mTOR pathway; their deficit suppresses fibroblast function.
• Hydration and defence – serine and alanine are core components of the Natural Moisturizing Factor; cysteine stabilises procollagen and feeds glutathione synthesis.
• NCTC 135 – the Fusion Meso revitalisation complex: 23 amino acids with 18 vitamins, minerals, co-enzymes and nucleic acids, feeding cellular metabolism and protecting hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin from free radicals.
• Synergy with hyaluronic acid – hydration plus building blocks is the classic revitalisation pairing in aesthetic medicine.

From certified injectables to daily care

Amino acids are central to the ACURHYAL range – MDR CE Class III certified medical devices for collagen stimulation by mesotherapy – and continue through Fusion Meso sterile vials and home care, so the regenerative strategy started in clinic never stops at the door.

Frequently asked questions

Why combine amino acids with hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid creates the hydrated environment; amino acids provide the material. Together they cover the two conditions skin needs to rebuild well.

Are the ACURHYAL injectables cosmetics?

No – ACURHYAL products are MDR CE Class III certified medical devices, for professional use by qualified practitioners only.
