I am 51 and have been through many health issues over the past 20 yrs, incl a pancreas and kidney transplant last year. I am so grateful and ready to live my life to the fullest but really see the toll stress and Rx have taken on my appearance (I’m on anti-rejection Rx and Prednisone 5mg QD). Assuming my tx team approves, what are your recommendations for improved skin tone/texture and tightening of my face? Type of laser? Already planning injectables. Thanks you very much!!
