Asked By:anon94051 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I've always had puffy eyes but they're getting considerably worse with age. I also have droopy eyelids (which I glue the skin into my socket to lift) and very lined bags especially when I smile. I'm 32 and desperate to have them sorted as hate looking in the mirror :( Please could you recommend the most effective and cost effective treatment you would recommend Many thanks :)
