Yes it does. Big time.

But you cannot say sleep causes acne. Sleep, specifically sleep deprivation, affects acne indirectly. Sleep affects most, if not all, the causes that lead to acne.

Not getting enough sleep is serious. It has shown to increase inflammation (the main cause behind acne) and increase insulin resistance (another bad boy behind acne)

    I believe this is true because I have experienced it first hand. I had perfect skin until my son was diagnosed with a disease that needs constant overnight supervision. I get about 4 hours of sleep a night until my husband’s off days and he can take over supervision of my son on those days. My skin has been horrible ever since. Lack of proper sleep weakens your immune system and I am suffering from many health problems now not just skin. My hair has also noticeably gotten thinner and lost a lot of it’s shine. Lack of sleep also effects your metabolism making it hard to lose weight.
