Stress can indeed contribute to the development or worsening of acne.
When you’re stressed, the body releases stress hormones such as cortisol, which can increase oil production in the skin and lead to more breakouts.
It’s important to manage stress through relaxation techniques, exercise, proper sleep, and a healthy diet to help reduce the impact it can have on your skin.
