Even a few days without sun and oxygen play a role.
During the period quarantine we are increasingly thinking about how great it is to be able to go out at any time. Do you know what happens to our face when we are within four walls?
Going outside, we saturate the body with oxygen, and under the influence of sunlight, the skin produces vitamin D.
The cells of the epidermis need oxygen. With its deficiency, hypoxia occurs in cells and tissues, the number of living cells decreases and the number of dead cells increases, the stratum corneum thickens and coarsens.
With a lack of oxygen, the immune defense of the skin is impaired - this leads to dehydration and further deterioration of the skin condition.
It is not difficult to notice this - dry areas appear on the face, peeling, redness, the skin becomes dull.
