Some of the change can start off with dry skin or flushing. But when you use alcohol for a long period it can lead to other complications which can affect the skin, such as the liver disease.

Alcohol could also worsen the skin conditions which persist.

Here are the short and long term effects of alcohol

Short-term effects

They are temporary and a person can notice them the day after a night of drinking and they are the following:

• Dehydration

• Flushing

• Sleep disruption

Long-term effects 

Changes to the skin could be more serious and last longer if a person regularly consumes alcohol.

If a person drinks alcohol continuously, the short term effects, like dry skin and flushing is more likely to turn into a persistent problem.

• Increased risk of skin cancer

• Increased risk of skin infections

• Changes in skin due to alcoholic liver disease
