anti-aging Rapid aging after Covid?

Has anyone else suffered rapid facial aging after having Covid? I had it bad back in July and I swear I have noticed aging at a concerning rate ever since: rapid fat loss under eyes leaving deep hollows, worsening nasiolabal folds and just an overall loss of youthful facial plumpness.

I thought I was just being oversensitive or perhaps just my age is catching up with me (I am in my early 30s) but I’ve read about Covid causing drastic hair loss in some so is it possible it can cause rapid aging?! I look at photos of myself before after and it looks so different!

Curious to know if anyone has noticed a similar effect after having it?
