During pregnancy, levels of oestrogen and progesterone are higher than usual, increasing hydration, elasticity and circulation and often creating the well-known 'pregnancy glow'. After delivery, hormone levels drop quickly and sharply.
Lower oestrogen
Lower oestrogen levels reduce the skin’s ability to retain moisture which can cause dryness, redness and increased irritation.
Stress & sleep
Skin renewal may slow after birth. Sleep deprivation can impair repair, leaving skin dehydrated and less resilient and tired in appearance. These postpartum skin changes are normal and usually improve gradually as hormone levels rebalance and the body recovers.
UV exposure
The hormones that can cause melasma (or pregnancy mask) don't disappear after birth, it can take a while for them to return to normal. Skin that was sensitised during pregnancy can become even more reactive to UV, so any sun exposure postpartum can deepen patches that might otherwise have faded.
