What are the consequences of lack of sleep on the body and skin?
We often complain about looking bad after a restless night's sleep, and it's no accident! Sleep deprivation may have a short-term impact on your energy levels, but it has a long-term impact on your skin.
During the night, the skin regenerates its hydrolipidic film, which acts as an essential protective shield to keep skin moisturized, nourished and healthy. It's also at this time that blood circulation accelerates to help regenerate the epidermis. If lack of sleep disrupts these natural processes, it prevents regeneration, and this can have several impacts on your skin:
- Cutaneous dryness: this is what leads to dry skin, with various repercussions such as dehydration, increased sensitivity to UV rays, pollution, cold and wind. All this can hasten the skin's aging process.
- Cortisol secretion is affected. As a result, it alters your collagen production, affecting your skin's elasticity, and therefore accelerating its aging process. Cortisol, the stress hormone, is also known to stimulate sebum production, which can lead to skin problems such as redness and pimples.
- Dull complexion Lack of sleep can also have an impact on complexion. In the absence of an adequate rest phase, increased blood flow cannot occur, resulting in a complexion that loses its natural radiance, and accentuates wrinkles and dark circles.
