What are extrinsic factors primarily related to?

  1. External health

  2. Genetics

  3. Internal health

  4. Mental health

The correct answer is: External health

Extrinsic factors are primarily related to external health. These factors include environmental influences such as sun exposure, pollution, smoking, and lifestyle choices that can impact the skin's health and appearance. These external factors play a significant role in determining the overall condition of the skin and can contribute to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, dryness, and other skin concerns. Understanding how extrinsic factors affect the skin is crucial for estheticians to develop effective skincare treatments and recommendations for their clients.
