Facial changes can be telling signs of underlying health issues:
Sparse Eyebrows: Thinning eyebrows may indicate hypothyroidism, where a sluggish thyroid leads to hair loss, or atopic dermatitis, a skin condition affecting many.
Severe Acne or Hirsutism: More than just skin deep, persistent severe acne or unusual facial hair can signal Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), which also disrupts menstrual cycles and fertility.
Facial Rashes or Bumps: Persistent red rashes or bumps on the face may point to autoimmune diseases like lupus or digestive issues associated with celiac disease.
Dark Under-Eye Circles: Not just from tiredness, chronic dark circles, especially with red or black spots, may be a sign of Dermatomyositis, a serious autoimmune condition affecting muscles.
