Sleep is vital for healthy skin. Yet the CDC states a third of American adults usually get less than the recommended 7 hours of sleep. Without adequate sleep, your body can't properly repair and regenerate proteins such as collagen and elastin that help strengthen the skin. As a result, many people notice the aftermath of lack of sleep on their skin, including hyperpigmentation, delayed wound healing, fine lines, wrinkles, dark circles, and puffiness under the eyes.
