Listened to Realself...got filler lower eyelids to cheeks, multiple RF sessions; I've seen some results, but still unhappy. Getting under eye TCA peel in 2 weeks. What laser is safe on whole face with my thin under eye skin & max 2 week downtime? I run everyday inside, but fat loss on my 29 year old face has taken it's toll.
