Asked By:Alime78 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
I am 43 years old. I had stage 3 hormone positive breast cancer at 38, and had ovaries removed. I take oestrogen blocking medication. I have noticed accelerated ageing around my eyes, lips & jowls. I do clench my jaw and have gained weight.My eyelids are droopy and my under eye area is dark and puffy. My lips turn downward and have become very thin (considering filler).
