The modern pace of life leaves its mark not only on well-being but also on the condition of the skin. Allergic reactions, dryness, inflammation, and increased sensitivity are common companions of stress. Cosmetologist and plastic surgeon Zuhra Balakerimova discusses which procedures and care can help restore skin health and bring back its glow.
The Impact of Stress on the Skin
Stress disrupts the natural balance of the skin and its protective functions. Increased cortisol production can provoke inflammatory reactions, while external factors—pollution, sun exposure, poor ecology—worsen the condition of the dermis. Often, stress also affects skincare habits: many forget about regular washing, toning, and moisturizing of the skin.
Home Care
It is best to start recovery with basic care: washing twice a day, toning, and applying cream. Masks also help maintain skin health.
Deep Hydration
Moisturizing masks and serums with hyaluronic acid, as well as injection procedures—mesotherapy and biorevitalization—provide intensive nourishment and hydration. The skin becomes firmer, fine wrinkles disappear, and the face looks fresh.
Soothing Procedures
Masks and serums with ceramides, amino acids, panthenol, and aloe extracts restore the protective barrier and reduce skin sensitivity. Aloe has anti-inflammatory properties, while panthenol accelerates regeneration.
Lymphatic Drainage Massage
Gentle massage techniques or microcurrents improve blood circulation, reduce puffiness, and restore a healthy complexion to the skin. The procedure helps eliminate toxins and is excellent for a "tired face."
Gentle Peels
Almond, lactic, or enzyme acids are suitable for restoring the skin's natural glow. They gently renew the upper layer of the skin, stimulate cell regeneration and blood circulation, improving the texture and tone of the skin.
Plasma Therapy
Autologous blood plasma with platelets accelerates cell recovery, improves microcirculation, and increases skin density. This method is particularly effective for dull or sagging faces.
Healthy Lifestyle
Cosmetic procedures are effective, but long-term results require lifestyle changes: adequate sleep, reducing sugar and caffeine intake help reduce inflammation and puffiness, supporting skin health.
