I have brown patches on my face like the pregnancy mask I had so many years ago. How can I make it go away? Also I have bags under my eyes and wrinkles as well, should I get Botox or a chemical peel?

Answer: Melasma, Bags Under Eyes, etc.
Hi Donna. You packed quite a few issues into this short question.
For Melasma, the pregnancy mask, we recommend high strength bleaching programs with hydroquinone. Our programs vary between 6% - 8%, which is higher than the normal prescription.
As for the bags under the eyes, we would either recommend a lower Blepharoplasty or Restylane injections depending on how loose the skin is.
Finally, Botox can be great for wrinkles, but it depends where they are on the face and whether they are cause by muscle contraction or not. Botox is great for areas of the face that have wrinkles caused by muscle activity. The Botox relaxes the muscles, smoothing the wrinkles. Good luck.
