πΏ What is Stress Acne?
Stress acne is a breakout caused or worsened by psychological stress. When you're stressed, your body releases cortisol, which disrupts hormone balance, increasing sebum (oil) production and inflammation. This can lead to clogged pores, blackheads, and inflamed pimples—often on the forehead, cheeks, or jawline.
π€― How Does Cortisol Affect Acne?
- Triggers oil glands
- Increases skin inflammation
- Slows wound healing
- Weakens skin’s protective barrier
π Fun fact: Cortisol spikes can increase oil production by 30% in as little as 30 minutes of acute stress!
π§π½βοΈ Ayurvedic Approach to Stress Acne
Ayurveda views acne as an imbalance in Pitta dosha, which governs heat and metabolism. Stress increases Pitta, leading to inflammation, sweating, and toxins (ama) buildup in the skin.
