Common damages that many mothers experience after giving birth include dry skin, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, skin raises, and sagging abdomen. Factors such as hormonal changes, stress and lack of sleep can make the skin lifeless. To restore skin after giving birth, proper care is essential.
Postpartum skin care begins with taking time for yourself. You need to rest and relax. This is the time for you to carry out your skin care care care thoroughly.
First, you should deeply moisturize your skin by using moisturizer throughout your body, paying attention not to the breast and thoracic rings. Gently exfoliate about once a week to help your skin become smoother and healthier.
In addition to taking care of your skin from the outside, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is also very important. Try to move your body at least 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week. This not only helps improve health but also helps stimulate blood circulation, supporting skin recovery.
In addition, a healthy and balanced diet will help the skin recover quickly. Supplement foods rich in collagen, vitamins A and E such as dairy products, citrus fruits, kiwis, nuts, vegetable oils and green leafy vegetables.
Skin recovery can be long, especially in the abdominal area, where skin elasticity requires time to return to normal after expansion. In fact, it can take up to 6 months for your belly to return to pre-pregnancy, as the uterus needs time to fully contract.
Postpartum skin care is a long-term process but very worth it. Love and take care of yourself to restore healthy and vibrant skin!
