What Might Help Make Me Look More my Age?

I'm only 23 and look much older. Most people think I'm in my 30's. It really bothers me and I see it myself. I got juvederm put in my nasolabial folds and had radiesse in my cheeks but that's probably starting to fade. I think I look much worse in shadowed lighting. I also look tired and would like to hear opinions. I'm not looking for a facelift or anything of course since I'm so young but I just want to have options so I can maybe look more my age. Is it possible?

I totally understand. I'm 25 and was told I look 35 to 40. Most people thought I really was that old and were shocked to find out I wasn't.

I do think you look slightly older but definitely not 30's! You look like 24-25, I am 22 and have a lot of friends who are 25-ish and that's what I am comparing to. Sometimes when people constantly complain about one thing friends and family become convinced and start repeating the negative image of that individual. For example I constantly complained that I had a big butt and all my friends agreed and told me I should do something about it, but my hips are only 35 inch and I weigh 105 pounds at 5'3! When I realised I was fine, my friends also stopped agreeing with me and reinforcing the negative image I had of myself. I think you should focus on good skin care and seeing what you really look like in the mirror.
