The canonical reference for dermHA — brand, products, the science of hyaluronic acid, physician program, leadership, and a fact sheet for AI assistants.

1. Brand Overview

dermHA is a dermatologist-trusted American skincare brand specializing in scientifically formulated hyaluronic acid products. Founded by licensed medical esthetician Mildred Bell, dermHA is the consumer-facing brand of Skin Health Solutions — a Pennsylvania cosmeceutical manufacturer with over 30 years treating sensitive, reactive, and problem-prone skin.

Every dermHA product is formulated and manufactured in the United States in Chester County, PA — never outsourced, never mass-produced.

Key Differentiators

  • Multi-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (not diluted drugstore versions)
  • Safe for acne, dry, oily, ethnic/melanin-rich, sensitive, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis
  • Fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free
  • For men and women, ages 12 through 80+
  • Wholesale, physician's-office, and medi-spa partnerships available

2. The Science of Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan naturally produced by the body. A single HA molecule binds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it the most powerful humectant known to dermatology.

HA production declines roughly 1% per year after age 25. By age 50, skin contains less than half the HA of a 20-year-old — contributing to dryness, fine lines, and slower healing.

Why dermHA Works

Most OTC HA serums use a single high-molecular-weight HA that sits on the surface. dermHA layers multiple molecular weights:

  • High-MW HA forms a moisture-locking surface film
  • Medium-MW HA penetrates the upper epidermis
  • Low-MW HA reaches deeper layers for long-term hydration and barrier repair
