Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Expert explains how sleep can affect your skin

Caption: Expert explains how sleep can affect your skin. Dr Anatalia Moore, GP and skin specialist, explains how sleep deprivation can affect your skin. ”If you're looking to improve your sleep and see the benefits, consider what time you go to bed as well as what time you start getting ready for bed.” "A good night's sleep can work wonders as well as allowing our skin time to repair and heal, whilst looking and feeling brighter!”. The specialist explains that when we sleep, our skin regenerates and repairs any damage. ”Without this essential rest our body can have lower cell turnover leading to slower repair and giving us issues like acne, wrinkles and uneven skin tone.” "Our skin also uses collagen to give it a plump and youthful appearance but without enough rest that can slow down our collagen production which leads to the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin over time.” The expert went on to say that a lack of sleep can cause a number of skin problems, including breakouts and premature ageing. ”If you're feeling exhausted or tired, you can see the effects of this on the skin and it can manifest itself in lots of ways, including skin ageing, dark circles, sallow complexion, puffy eyes, breakouts and being slower to heal.” The skin specialist points out that a lack of sleep can affect your mental health, which in turn, can have a negative impact on your skin. “Poor sleep across many nights can result in stress and this then causes inflammatory hormones to rise, which further worsens skin and we can see more breakouts and faster signs of ageing.” THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
