This App Shows What Your Face Looks Like After 5 Years Of Meth Abuse

You may remember Rehabs.com's "Horrors of Methamphetamines" viral campaign from last December. It borrowed a popular marketing tactic used by police departments to convince people to stay away from methamphetamines by showing real images how drastically drug addicts' faces change after months and years of abuse.

Rehabs.com's latest web app takes a different approach: Users can take a picture with their web camera and an app will morph their faces to show the putative damage of meth use for 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years. Click here to try.

Creator Sam Deford put Miley Cyrus' face through the meth program:
