Just as your skin is a reflection of your physical health, your mental health also is on display on your skin. Stress actually can trigger many skin diseases.
Hives, shingles, psoriasis, rosacea, eczema, and some acne are all skin disorders that may be triggered by stress. Stress also ages your skin and overall appearance.
How can your stress be diminished? Orange County certified dermatologist Dr. Tony Nakhla offers many tips to restore your skin health by reducing stress in his book, The Skin Commandments: 10 Rules to Healthy, Beautiful Skin. You can purchase this book on Amazon.com, or make an appointment with Dr. Nakhla at OC Skin Institute by calling (714) 547-6111.
