What is neurobeauty?
Neurobeauty is a new trend in science that explains how your brain is connected to your skin. Emotions such as stress or relaxation have a direct impact on your skin. Inner calm promotes recovery and a radiant complexion. With neurobeauty, you discover how inner balance leads to skin improvement.
The relationship between your brain and your skin
Your skin and brain are in constant communication through nerves, hormones, and immune cells. In science, this field is also known as psychodermatology. Stress, for example, raises the stress hormone cortisol, which can weaken the skin barrier and lead to redness or impurities.
On the other hand, positive emotions and relaxation stimulate the production of happiness hormones such as serotonin and dopamine. These substances have a calming effect on your nervous system and support the skin’s natural recovery processes. The skin–brain connection shows how what you feel on the inside becomes visible on the outside.
The power of touch
Touch is one of the most powerful ways to calm your nervous system. During a massage or gentle touch, signals are sent to the brain that reduce stress and encourage relaxation. As a result, cortisol levels drop, allowing your skin to recover more effectively and become less sensitive.
Scientific research even shows that touch stimulates the release of oxytocin – also called the “happiness hormone.” This hormone strengthens feelings of peace and wellbeing, which translates into healthier, calmer skin.
At Waer Waters, the power of touch comes to life in our massages and facial treatments. These treatments are not only beneficial for your skin, but they also bring your entire system into balance.
Experience it for yourself
Neurobeauty may sound like something that only belongs in a laboratory, but you can experience it for yourself. At our resort, everything revolves around balancing body and mind. In the wellness area, you reach deep relaxation, allowing your brain to send signals of calm to your skin.
