Asked By:Jpenni in Sammamish, Wa.

Ive recently lost weight and my jowls have become very pronounced as well as lines around my mouth. My skin has been great and youthful for many yrs but now the sagging (and thinner face?) have aged me . Im on immunosuppressants and prednisone but hopefully off soon. And if not, I could likely stop for a month or so. I have an auto-immune eye disease, am stable and on mainteneance meds. In my case, is it best to stick with nonsurgical solutions?
