8. Dark circles and dull complexion.
A darkened and chronically tired complexion can reflect the liver’s reduced ability to detoxify the blood. Reduced oxygen supply to the tissues can cause the face to look fatigued, regardless of how well the person sleeps.

Why does the liver show warning signs on the face?
The liver filters toxins, regulates hormones, produces bile, and supports metabolic processes. When its function declines, toxins accumulate and hormonal imbalances occur, which can manifest externally, especially in the skin and facial blood vessels.

When to seek medical help
Doctors recommend immediate evaluation if several facial signs occur together, especially along with symptoms such as:

Fatigue

Loss of appetite

abdominal discomfort

Dark urine or pale stools

Unexplained weight loss

Early detection can identify fatty liver, hepatitis, or fibrosis before they progress to life-threatening stages.
