Hippocratic facies is a term used to describe the facial expression of a severely ill or dying person, characterized by sunken eyes, hollow cheeks, and a drawn expression. It is typically caused by severe illness or approaching death, leading to dehydration, weight loss, and muscle wasting. The term originates from the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates, who observed this facial appearance in seriously ill patients.
