“Beauty Sleep” – Great Sleep Affects Beauty

Great Sleep Affects Beauty

Beauty sleep is important to your health Great sleep affects beauty

Sleep affects beauty. For quite some time, science has measured that “deep, tired look” of patients who suffer with sleep disturbances.

Studies show that patients who resolve their sleep issues often enjoy scientifically-measured improvements in their facial skin. Less redness and forehead puffiness are just two of the noticeable and measurable improvements that can result with improved sleep.

In addition, observers who viewed photos of sleep apnea patients after successful treatment often cited these patients as being more attractive, youthful and alert.

Many studies reveal that only about 50% of patients are using their prescribed CPAP treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. Luckily, many of these CPAP patients who we now treat with Oral Appliance Therapy are enjoying overall improvements in their sleep. After successful treatment, many times we see improvements which may include:

  • less dreary eyes
  • less puffiness around the eyes
  • less redness around the nose
  • less visible strap lines (from attempted CPAP use)
  • much less ’grumpiness’ factor

If you are not getting good quality and quantity of sleep, it’s important to review possible reasons. Many sleep disorders have profound implications on heart disease, diabetes, weight gain and more. A lack of sleep affects “beauty” inside and out.
