Toxic chemicals produced by e-cigarettes pose significant risks to skin and skin health, according to the Times Now newspaper.
Many smokers believe that electronic smoking is a milder alternative to traditional smoking, especially among young people. However, many medical studies have proven that there is a close relationship between some health complications and smoking.
According to health experts, during electronic smoking, a large flow of chemicals is introduced into the body, gases are easily absorbed by sensitive lung tissues, and prolonged inhalation of vapor leads to a sharp increase in many toxins.
Some of the potential chemicals found in the vapor include formaldehyde, nicotine and its derivatives, propylene glycol, toluene, and acetaldehyde, as well as trace metals such as cadmium, nickel, and lead.
Inhalation of these toxic substances inevitably affects the skin, as a large part of these inhaled substances settle within its layers, and overloading the skin cells with toxins can disrupt their normal functions, including the essential task of repairing the skin barrier.
Symptoms of premature aging arise in the form of dryness, enlarged pores, sagging and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture; Because of nicotine and its effects on constricting blood vessels, which leads to reduced blood flow to the skin.
A study reveals that nicotine has been linked to delayed wound healing and accelerated skin aging. This leads to sagging and the appearance of skin wrinkles, in addition to affecting the facial expressions made during vaping, especially the movements of the mouth and eyes, in the formation of wrinkles on the face.
