Vaping Side Effects: In the last few years, the trend of vaping has become very popular among the youth. Its craze is being seen especially among the people of Gen Z. Vaping is milder than traditional smoking. Vaping often acts as smoking for the youth. More than half of young adults are smoking due to vapers. But do you know that vaping also has many disadvantages to health.
According to the report of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention Control, about 1,300 deaths are happening daily just because of cigarette smoking. But the long term effects of vaping are still being studied. According to research, toxic chemicals are produced from e-cigarette smoke. Keeping in mind the harmful effects of smoking on our health, the question arises that what effect does it have on our skin? How does smoking and vaping affect our complexion? Let's find answers to these questions.
Vaping releases chemicals
There is a flow of chemicals in the body during vaping. Our lung tissues easily absorb the gases and many toxins build up on prolonged inhalation of the vapors. Some of the possible chemicals present in vapers include formaldehyde, nicotine derivatives, propylene glycol, toluene, acetaldehyde, cadmium, nickel and trace metals such as lead.
Effect on skin
These toxic substances going into the body through breath also affect the skin. Overloading of skin cells with toxic substances can disrupt their normal functions. This also includes the task of repairing the skin barrier. Due to which the symptoms of premature aging can arise.
Nicotine—an ingredient found in both cigarettes and electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes)—constricts blood vessels, resulting in reduced blood circulation to the skin. When the blood circulation in the skin is not done properly, then the essential nutrients are not able to go into the skin. Wrinkles occur due to insufficient nutrients.
