Psychosocial Stress and Mechanisms of Skin Health: A Comprehensive Update.
Journal of Drugs in Dermatology : JDD 2021 January 2
Although the relationship between psychosocial stress and skin health is commonly invoked in both the scientific and popular literature, its underlying mechanisms are still not well understood. In this review, we provide a comprehensive update on the pathophysiology of stress and its clinical impact on skin homeostasis. The recent characterization of a bidirectional HPA stress axis in the skin has illuminated peripheral stress pathways, with effects spanning inflammation, atopy, barrier function, dermal thinning, wound healing, and melanogenesis. Additionally, new research into the cutaneous microbiome suggests the development of stress-induced dysbiosis through the “gut-brain-skin” axis. These new findings help contextualize how lifestyle factors such as diet, personal care practices, and sleep patterns may mediate and sometimes amplify the cutaneous impacts of psychological stress. We aim to clarify these clinically important relationships and highlight areas of future study that have widespread academic, clinical, and commercial implications.
