Move over face masks and skin creams, CPAP therapy is here to rejuvenate you while you sleep. Inadequate rest can affect your energy and mood, but it can also change how attractive you appear to others!
But for real, can using your CPAP make you more attractive? A few scientists sought to answer this pressing question with an interesting experiment.
Actually, CPAP does make you more attractive!
According to Chervin et al.’s study¹, CPAP does in fact make you more attractive! Participants were photographed once at the beginning of the study, and then again after 2 months of compliant CPAP therapy.
22 people rated the attractiveness of participants’ before and after pictures. On average, raters “twice as frequently” chose the post-CPAP images of study participants as the more attractive ones.

Not only can CPAP make you more attractive, but it can also make you feel more energized and healthy. Study participants had a “robust improvement in self-assessed sleepiness after PAP treatment,” meaning they not only looked, but felt more well-rested and alert!
But, how does CPAP make you more attractive?
You are probably wondering, how exactly did CPAP make people more attractive? Here are 3 things that enhance your appearance just by complying to your sleep therapy. In the images, the left face is pre-CPAP and the right face is post-CPAP.
1. You look more well-rested and alert.
This seems pretty obvious because CPAP helps you get the quality sleep you need, but there is a noticeable difference! Looking more alert and well-rested can indicate the you are healthier, which many people find more attractive. Therefore, it’s no surprise that using CPAP can increase your attractiveness just by giving you a good night’s sleep.
2. You look more youthful.
Getting a good night’s sleep does more than just give you a boost of energy. A full night’s sleep is also a very important step in any skincare regimen. It makes sense that being well-rested can also give you that youthful glow!
3. Your face may actually change.
Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but this study showed that your facial structure can actually change with good sleep! After 2 months of CPAP therapy, researchers noticed significantly less forehead wrinkles and less under-eye and cheek redness, which indicates less inflammation.
Here’s 4 tips to get your CPAP beauty benefits:
1. Make sure your supplies are fresh and easy on your skin.
When your supplies are old, the therapy will become less and less effective. Because this happens slowly over time, most folks end up not noticing it. Instead, they will tighten their mask a little more, thinking they just need the seal a little closer.
Eventually this leads to over-tightening that can cause pain, marks, and the annoying “hot mask” feeling. The less comfortable your CPAP supplies are, the harder it is to stay compliant and get your CPAP benefits. You can avoid this by replacing your supplies with fresh ones regularly on the recommended, insurance-backed schedule.
