Skin Repair and Night Shifts – What’s the Connection?

Working nights has left my skin looking dull and slow to heal. Read somewhere that circadian rhythms play a big role in skin repair. Any tips to counteract the effects?

Rotating shifts disrupt your skin’s circadian clock, impairing DNA repair and cell regeneration. Focus on consistent sleep schedules, even on off days, and use antioxidant-rich skincare to support repair cycles. UV protection is critical during daylight exposure.

hey yeah so theres this thing with clock genes like BMAL1 and PER1 that directly mess with skin repair and hair cycles when your sleep’s all over the place UV exposure during the day can throw it off even more maybe try timed treatments or chronotherapy to sync things up faster
