Puffiness on face

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone experiences puffy and bloated face when they wake up in the morning ( or whenever you wake up :slight_smile: ). Why it happens and what do I do to remedy it? I stay up late to study and, therefore, wake up at around noon. Could it play a role in bloating my face?

Please post any temporary and permanent cure.

Wow! Really, is it only me who gets this in the morning? Nobody even heard of it?

hey i have that problem at times but i hardly sleep:) hmmmm i asked a friend and seems as if its only us lol

It could be due to water retention. So....reduce your salt intake and drink plenty of water.

Other than that.....try sleeping on two pillows. I've read this as a suggestion for bags under the eyes......using two helps to prevent fluid from collecting under the eyes.

Could it be the way that your sleeping? Some people sleep with their faces squished/jammed into the pillow. Try sleeping seedha or on your side......in a position where you're not putting pressure on your face.

thankx redvelvet i sleep on my stomac hmmmm maybe the face literally inside the pillow is da cause:)

Hmmm..........it's interesting that you say that. Because I have heard desi moms/aunties scold/say that if you sleep on your face.........your facial features (nose, for example) will appear bigger when you wake up in the morning.

Perhaps it has something to do with the pressure. I don't know how true this idea is............it could be be an old-wive's tale or something............but I have heard of it before.

Like RV pointed out..reduce u're salt intake it's usually water retention. Sleep on 2 pillows with u're head raised, this drains the fluid from u're face. Do a few stretches in the morning.. and splash u're face with cold water.

thankx RV and Gina will try these hope gets better.
