Why does staying up late cause acne to occur more frequently?

People often say that staying up late will cause acne, but the real reason behind it is that staying up late triggers endocrine disorders in the body. You may not know that there is a sophisticated endocrine system inside the human body, which is composed of various endocrine glands and the hormones they produce. These hormones, together with the nervous system, regulate metabolism, growth and development, and many other physiological activities.


What problems will endocrine disorders cause?

Hormones continue to increase:

when the balance of the autonomic nervous system is disrupted. Autonomic nerves, including sympathetic nerves and parasympathetic nerves, dominate physiological activities during the day and night respectively. Staying up late can disrupt this balance and lead to nervous system dysfunction. To repair this disorder, the brain secretes more hormones. These hormones stimulate the proliferation of sebaceous glands and increase sebum secretion, which may cause problems such as enlarged pores, blockage, inflammation, and ultimately acne.

Increased toxins in the body:

Staying up late will also affect the detoxification function of the liver. The liver is the largest detoxification organ in the human body and relies on blood circulation to decompose harmful substances. However, staying up late will disrupt the control of sympathetic nerves, resulting in reduced liver blood flow and decreased detoxification function. When toxins in the body cannot be expelled through normal pathways, they are expelled through the skin, especially through the pores and sweat ducts. If these detoxification channels are blocked by oil, dirt, etc., toxins will accumulate inside the skin and eventually break out into acne.


How to quickly eliminate acne on your face?

Step 1: stop staying up late and let your body get adequate rest. In this way, the endocrine system can gradually return to normal, creating favorable conditions for acne repair. In addition, drinking more water and tea can also increase the amount of urine and promote the excretion of toxins from the urine. At the same time, it reduces liver fire, promotes blood circulation and metabolism, and can also regulate human endocrine to a certain extent and help eliminate acne.

Step 2: Recovery from acne on the face requires a process. During the period of acne, you should do your best to prevent acne. You can use a hydrocolloid acne patch, which can not only absorb the pus on the acne and accelerate acne It heals acne and prevents it from being invaded by foreign microorganisms and causing infection.
