When we feel stress, our bodies release the stress hormone cortisol. Cortisol contributes to systemic inflammation which breaks down collagen and elastin, accelerating ageing. Chronic stress can also lead to increased oil production, which can trigger breakouts and dull skin. And when we are stressed we often do not sleep well which hinders the skin’s ability to repair and regenerate. Over time, these factors contribute to dehydration, fine lines, and a loss of skin elasticity.
Sleep: The Ultimate Skin Reset
Quality sleep is essential for skin rejuvenation. During deep sleep phases, the body boosts blood flow, collagen production, and cellular turnover. Growth hormones released overnight aid in repairing damage caused by daily environmental stressors. Poor sleep quality or insufficient rest disrupts these processes, resulting in sallow skin, dark circles, and increased sensitivity. Hydration levels also drop, making the skin more prone to dryness and irritation.
Managing Stress for Healthier Skin
A holistic approach to stress management can significantly improve skin health. Regular exercise, mindfulness techniques, and balanced nutrition support overall well-being, reducing the impact of stress on the skin. Incorporating hydration-rich foods and topical ingredients like hyaluronic acid can further maintain skin moisture and resilience.
Understanding and Supporting Skin Health
While stress management and sleep hygiene lay the foundation for healthier skin, targeting multiple layers beyond the surface is key for optimal skin vitality. This is where a combination approach may help with advanced treatments for a holistic approach to combat the impact of external factors on key skin components.
