Two of the most frequent occurrences of modern life are stress and difficulty falling or staying asleep. This puts the burden first on your alertness the next day, and then over time will make your skin tone down noticeably. So what is effective skin care?

Modern society improves people&#39;s lives in many ways. Along with that, stress and sleepless nights have also become a part of many people&#39;s lives. In addition to the harmful effects on mental health, these &quot;problems of the times&quot; are also the cause of the transformation and aging of the skin.

<h2>How does stress affect the skin?</h2> “When stressed and anxious, the body releases a large amount of cortisol – a hormone that helps the body cope with this condition. However, prolonged stress with the overuse of cortisol leads to inflammation of the skin tissue, which in turn accelerates the aging process with the appearance of freckles, sagging and wrinkles,&quot; says Paola Pomerantzeff, dermatologist Dermatologist, member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology. Another big issue is the impact on the skin&#39;s beneficial microbiome. Dermatologist Daniel Cassiano, a member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, said: &quot;More and more research shows that the beneficial skin microbiome improves our overall health.&quot; However, stress and anxiety can negatively impact this microbiome.

<h2>Effects of sleepless nights</h2> Everyone knows that poor quality sleep affects health and skin. However, nowadays, not everyone can guarantee the quality of their sleep every day. According to Mário Farinazzo, plastic surgeon, PhD, member of the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgeons: “This happens because during sleep, cells are regenerated and free radicals are eliminated.”

<h2>Solution for frequently stressed skin</h2> Some popular and easy ways to incorporate physical activity and meditation into your daily routine. In addition, treating the signs of dermatitis that have appeared is a necessary step. Products with the active ingredient BAM - which directly inhibits the enzyme to reduce cortisol production - are the right choice to help combat the effects of stress on the skin. “As a result, stress hormone levels become balanced, reducing collagen fiber damage as well as improving skin tissue condition. Thereby, the skin maintains its youthfulness, health and firmness,” says Gustavo Saczk, dermatologist, PhD, member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology and Brazilian Society of Dermatological Surgeons, and is also a scientific advisor for Età Cosmetics. Oral serum is also a recommended solution in combination with topical serum to enhance the treatment effect. Patrícia França, chief scientific officer at Biotec Dermocosméticos explains: “The oral serum is formulated with ingredients such as Modulip GC and Glycoxil to help counteract the chronic effects of stress on the skin, as well as regulate over-regulation. production of cortisol and glycation”.

<h2>Solution for skin after sleepless nights</h2> Have you noticed that your face is swollen after nights of tossing or sleeping too much? So, Dr. Paola recommends drinking at least two liters of water a day, of which “coconut water and green tea are ideal options. You should also control the amount of sodium in each meal because it causes water retention, especially when consuming canned juice.” Physical activity during the day is also essential because it helps to bring about a healthy body. “The muscle contraction itself contributes to fluid drainage. Combining exercises with a balanced diet, increasing intake of vegetables that improve the elimination of toxins such as cabbage, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, will benefit the entire body. can reduce swelling or fluid retention.” However, if you have been dealing with insomnia for a long time, your skin may lose its ability to repair itself. In this case, you can use products containing resveratrol and pomegranate seed oil. Resveratrol has a high antioxidant capacity and contributes to increased cell longevity. Pomegranate seed oil is a great ally with powerful antioxidant properties. As Ludmila Bonelli, esthetic and cosmetic dermatologist and chief scientific officer of Be Belle explains, “Pomegranate seed oil strengthens the structure and strengthens the immunity of the skin, while also fighting against the action of toxins. free radicals cause aging.” For supplements, pharmacist Patrícia França shares that you can use Exsynutriment, a bioavailable organic silicone that stimulates collagen, and Oral FC to improve hydration and reverse aging and inflammation. Alternatively, you can use symptomatic skin treatments such as the Pico Ultra 300 - indicated to fade blemishes and rejuvenate, or Ultraction 3D - ideal for stimulating collagen proliferation. According to dermatologist Paola, with the initial wrinkles, you can use Relax &amp; Refresh treatment to slow down the aging process, especially for the area around the eyes and mouth. “During this procedure, the muscle relaxant botulinum toxin combined with the skinbooster to accelerate hydration and collagen production, thereby helping to reduce crow&#39;s feet and wrinkles. On average, the course lasts 3 sessions and will take effect after 15 days.

Another method is LipoGlow, which is performed through the injection of fat into the face to improve the elasticity and brightness of the skin. “The lipoenxertia procedure uses fat from the body itself to restore volume and support rejuvenation, as well as restore firmness and luminosity to the facial skin,” says Mário Farinazzo, plastic surgeon and PhD. . “Fat, in addition to not causing rejection because it is taken directly from the client, also provides more natural results and improves skin condition almost permanently. The reason is because about half of the fat grafted will inevitably integrate into the tissue.” In addition, HydraFacial is not indicated for the treatment of aging but can be used to restore skin health weakened by stress and insomnia. “HydraFacial promotes immediate skin quality improvement, helps even skin tone and radiance, repairs texture to increase firmness and suppleness through patented Vortex-Fusion technology. This solution has an exclusive spiral design capable of creating a swirling effect, which, combined with the device&#39;s vacuum technology, can easily remove impurities while hydrating the skin.&quot; Aribi, dermatologist, PhD, member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology and the Brazilian Society of Dermatological Surgeons “Fast, completely painless, non-invasive and with no downtime, HydraFacial is for anyone For anyone, including those with dry or sensitive skin, it also removes dead skin cells, co-moisturizes and replenishes the essential antioxidants the skin needs, promoting natural repair. &quot; There is a saying &quot;First in shape, second in skin&quot;.
