Your Skin Is Telling You You’re Inflamed — Dr. Barbara Sturm Explains

One of the fascinating things about cellular biology is we have ways now of following white blood cell around the bloodstream and finding out where the inflammation is. I want to talk about how inflammation can be seen on the skin and the face. What are some manifestations of skin inflammation?

Whatever we don't like about our skin redness, psoriasis, aging, acne, cystic acne, perioral dermatitis, everything is a sign of inflammation. So inflammation makes sense to turn around, keep it under control. And we can do this not just with our skincare products that shouldn't be inflammatory, but should be ideally anti inflammatory.
