I’m asking this because Ive never been in this situation before so sorry if it sounds dumb.

Long story short I went from 13 percent to 17-18 percent body fat in a month. I basically did an accidental dirty bulk with a mix of healthy but extra calories came from fast food.

I look bad now in my face and my abs are gone. If I cut back down to 13 in 6-8 weeks will I look the same, better or worse?
 
You will probably look worse just don’t eat the shitty food. It will take much longer to cut back down to your previous weight. How old are you?

Depends on what are you doing

If you're starving,yes you will

But if you're eating enough protein but in deficit then not

Mark as a solution please
 
If you go back to the exact same percentage your body will look slightly better (I assume you lift since you talked about bulking so you must have put on some muscles)
For the face I think it depends on how you cut, if you starvemaxx like a retard you will still have the same hormones problems you had because of the bulk (skin, bloat)
Do a clean cut, it might take longer but it's worth it

I will do my old diet of only Whole Foods and a 850 deficit

So I will look worse than before? Even if I go back to old healthy diet and same bodyfat percentage?

Similar face (if we ignore things you might have changed like haircut)

The longer you take the less muscle you lose

You’ll be fine just run a deficit train 3-5x a week and eat enough protein
