Therefore, it is necessary to take some time to take care of your face, helping your face to reduce the effects caused by the pregnancy process. As long as you follow a proper diet and take some facials, you can greatly limit the problems of post-birth skin.

After birth, women may experience some facial problems such as:

  • Dark spots on the face: The stress of caring for a baby can have a negative effect on the skin of the face that provokes the development of dark spots on the skin.
  • Melasma: Melasma is a condition where increased pigmentation patches appear on the skin, often appearing on the sides of the cheeks. The cause of melasma is the increased concentration of pregnancy hormones during pregnancy, and these hormones will gradually decrease after the baby is born. Therefore, if well cared for, post-birth melasma can be significantly improved.
  • Dark circles around the eyes and puffiness: The cause of dark circles and puffiness is a change in hormones and lack of sleep after childbirth.
  • Acne: Acne after pregnancy is a very common condition. Increased progesterone levels can cause acne outbreaks, especially in people with a history of acne. If you have ever owned smooth, glossy skin during pregnancy, the fact that post-birth skin can get acne will make you self-deprecating.
