5 HOW DOES STRESS AFFECT THE SKIN?
Everyone has stress, and understanding and managing stress is a great thing. Here are the harmful effects of stress.
Aging Skin, “Old” FAST
During the process, my sister's body was too stressed. As mentioned above, the amount of CORTISOL is too high will lead to high blood pressure, disorder of internal factors in the body, affecting the body's metabolism. Since then, the structure of the connective fibers of the skin COLLAGEN and ELASTIN is broken, and the skin is no longer soft and moist. Not only that, too much COLLAGEN loss will lead to the skin becoming aging faster.
Darker, Darker Skin
When under stress for a long time, our skin will no longer be smooth, white, but instead a pale, lifeless, darker skin. Insomnia is also a cause of stress, the skin becomes dark due to stress. But do you also know that lack of sleep due to stress causes many bad things?
Losing the skin's ability to protect itself, the skin is dry and tight, the skin becomes much more sensitive. The weaker the epidermis, the weaker the skin barrier function, and when exposed to something from the environment or any chemical cosmetic, the skin becomes more sensitive.
MORE OIL SKIN, ACNE DISEASE
The amount of oil secreted on the skin is not bad, the oil secreted is just wanted to protect the skin. Science also proves that excessive stress can also lead to acne. For women, stress causes the body to release more androgens and cortisol, stimulating the process of increasing oil secretion, leading to acne.
Acne is also quite a lot of treatment. The ingredient that is considered to be the "rectifier" of acne is BHA, also known as oil-soluble Salicylic acid, which will "clean" up excess oil and bacteria under the pores.
SKIN becomes more sensitive, thinner
Above As Spa said a lot about Cortisol, this is a type of hormone that will help fight stress, strengthen the immune system and fight allergies. But its "downside" is increased blood pressure, blood sugar, and causes collagen fibers to break leading to thinner, more jumpy, inelastic, soft skin.
STRESS MAKES SKIN INflamed
Types of diseases: urticaria, psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema, ... these are "all" types of dermatitis. When our sisters' brains are overloaded with stress and prolonged stress, it can disrupt the balance of intestinal bacteria, damage the skin's resistance, and cause the skin to become inflamed. If the stress is prolonged, the skin will become significantly more inflamed.
