Harrowing images show the effects of drug use on people's appearance in a short period of time

A drug charity has released a series of harrowing photos showing the effects drug addiction can have on a user's appearance.
The images show mugshots taken over several years and reveal how a person's looks change dramatically. Those featured in the photos were regular users of substances including cocaine, heroin, meth, and ocycodone.
Involvement in illegal drugs often brings with it a rapid, and tragic physical decline and that was what the campaigners from Rehabs wanted to prove by releasing the photos in the hopes that the pictures will discourage people from using drugs. Among the effects shown in the images are weight loss, bloodshot eyes, scabs on skin and tooth decay.
