Have anyone noticed that many diabetics over a long period,develop a typical face,which I call diabetic faces !

Many diabetics, irrespective of control,develop a typical and distinctive look on the face and only a look at the face tells that the person is diabetic. It is not a short term phenomenon, it takes decades to develop . Any personal views or experience?

Don't you find a typical diabetic face of Mr. Jelly ? It is nothing to do with good or bad looks.

The article in this paper (Click the link: ispub.com/IJEN/6/1/3198) may be useful. It is very common when a diabetics sugar is low the face get distorted some times like people on fits

I had been to that web site , before writing this post. I am not talking about photographic differences. It is about a normal look on many old diabetics. A very distinctive look.

That web sites talks about different faces ,meaning different aspects of diabetes . Word faces used entirely in different context.
