They have been sounding the alarm for many years, saying that too much sugar in the diet can have a bad effect on our body. It turns out that it will also affect the appearance of your face and it is not about extra kilos (although these are often unavoidable due to excess sugar). What is worth paying attention to? Perhaps this will tell you that it is better to limit certain products. Remember, however, that for the sake of your health, if you have any doubts, it is worth visiting a doctor who, based on the interview and tests, will propose the best solution for your body.
Does sugar make your face swell? Excess can lead to many problems visible on the face
According to the website, excess sugar in the diet may manifest itself in wrinkles on the forehead and under the eyes, as well as gray and thin skin, pimples and a “wasted” appearance. Generally speaking, your skin will have trouble maintaining its youthful appearance. This effect can be called the “sugar face” effect. – When a patient comes to my clinic, I can immediately recognize what type of food they tend to over-eat just by looking at how their face is aging, said Nigma Talib, doctor of neuropathy and skin care specialist, in an interview with the website.

Even patients who do not suffer from acne but eat too much sugar often have pale skin. This is all because products with high sugar content increase insulin levels, which in turn can stimulate the production of cortisol, i.e. the so-called stress hormone. The problem can be noticed not only in the complexion, but also… in the eyebrows. If someone eats too much sugar, their eyebrows may become thin. This is the impact of the load on the adrenal glands, which control the hair in this part of the body. What else can you notice on the face of a person who consumes a lot of sugar? These include dry skin, changes in facial contours and worsening of dermatological diseases.

The specialist also pointed out that limiting sugar in the diet can have a positive effect on the face over time. Therefore, it is worth trying to give up cookies, sweet drinks, juices, processed foods and sweeteners, e.g. tea and coffee, even if it is not easy at first. Even reducing sugar doses by half will make your skin glow more.
