SkinMedica® Unveils Its Newest Hydration Hero

By the makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA), SkinMedica® introduces a next generation amino acid–based cleanser: HA5® Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser. , /PRNewswire/ -- Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company (NYSE: ABBV), announced today the newest addition to the SkinMedica® HA5® Hydra Collagen portfolio. Featuring the brand's proprietary HA5® Hydra Collagen Complex – a blend of five forms of hyaluronic acid and vegan hydra collagen – the HA5® Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser delivers instant hydration while providing a thorough cleanse, leaving skin feeling clean, calm, and cloud-soft. "As leaders in aesthetic medicine, innovation is at the heart of what we do", said Glen Curran, Senior Vice President, U.S. Allergan Aesthetics. "HA5® has long been a benchmark for advanced skin hydration, and the new Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser builds on that legacy. This marks the latest addition to an extensive portfolio of products from SkinMedica®, SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM®, and DiamondGlow® designed to deliver unparalleled hydration solutions." Traditional foaming cleansers often contain sulfate and synthetic-based surfactants, which can feel too harsh for dry and sensitive skin. The HA5® Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser uses skin-drenching ingredients of its proprietary HA5® Hydra Collagen Complex, 100% naturally derived amino acid-based surfactants, and Pea Peptides to gently cleanse skin and promote skin barrier health and skin hydration, revealing dewy, glowing skin. In clinical studies, the cleanser is proven to effectively remove makeup and impurities, plus instantly boost the skin's hydration by 30% when paired with HA5® Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator¹. "Cleansing is an essential first step in any skincare routine, as it helps maintain skin health and enhance the effectiveness of the products that follow," said Dr. Tiffany J. Libby, board-certified dermatologist. "The HA5® Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser not only cleanses thoroughly, but it also hydrates and respects the skin barrier. I've personally experienced its benefits and will be recommending it to my patients looking to address dehydrated, dull, sensitive skin or simply maintain healthy-looking, glowing skin." This new cleanser, paired with the HA5® Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator, creates the Hydration Collection, a powerful duo designed to work together for instant and long-term hydration and support overall epidermal health.
