Moderate EvidenceEvidence Summary
Injectable hyaluronic acid has demonstrated utility as an adjunct in knee cartilage injury treatment, contributing to pain reduction and functional improvement when combined with cell-based therapies (PMID: 41914582). As an injectable skin booster (Profhilo), HA formulations showed statistically significant improvements in skin elasticity, hydration, density, and wrinkle severity across nine studies involving 278 participants (PMID: 41920062). HA also serves as a rectal spacer in prostate brachytherapy, significantly reducing rectal radiation dose compared to no spacer (PMID: 41925424), and has been explored rectally in combination with CBD for chronic prostatitis symptom relief (PMID: 41709732).
