Asked By:alvt88 in Dover, Delaware

Hi, I always had early aging due to probably estrogen issues that I didn’t realize until I got diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 35. Since then I have been on estrogen blockers for the past three years, which have caused my face to look very very old. I do Botox for the crows feet and forehead, and I spend a lot of money on peptides retinol and all the vitamin C stuff. I have a lot of melasma out that I didn’t have and I have vertical lip lines as you can see with creepy skin. I’m feeling very depressed about this as I’ve been told that there’s not much I can do And I’m only 38.
