Can Hyaluronic acid fillers be used to enlarge muscles?

May 26, 2019
Asked By:John773 in Orlando, FL

I just found out that some bodybuilders are using Hyaluronic acid before competition to pump up certain muscles that are lagging. There are a few products targeted to bodybuilding that contain Hyaluronic acid. I was under the impression that you can't buy this stuff in injectable form? They say it lasts about 12 months. If it really works the same way as it does on the face and it lasts up to a year I would be very interested in having it done but by a professional.
