I wonder how soon or long it takes to disappear. I feel like I have a puffy face from drinking as well

coming from a common man I would say -- very good chance

and as we all have seen

alcoholics with big red noses and faces, excessive blood veins visible etc etc etc

the time in which to stop would be now

most all who get sober look 100 % better in a few months

be one of those -- fight the good fight -- for a change

I just get really blotchy when I drink and it is noticeable. If I don't drink for a couple of weeks people always comment on how better I look.

Obviously when you're pretty much constantly under the influence you tend not to notice what your skin looks like!

Yes, very common. Alcohol definitely causes a puffy face. For me, it can also cause redness in the face.

However I have a very puffy face. People comment on it that it doesn't look right for my weight. It's like a big moon face.

Could the alcohol have caused this? Has anyone else had this problem? Will it eventually go back to normal.
In my case the booze left my face red and puffy. I still have the photos of me towards the end of my drinking. Fat face and all.
