Hi, I have a question. Basically I'm 27 and have really bad self esteem. Around 3 years ago my eyes and cheeks started going south. I used to be happy, outgoing and confident but now I hide away and wake up everyday hoping its better.If I push the skin back on my temples ever so slightly I look how I should.
