Asked By:littlemouse81 in Toronto, ON

I had very SUDDEN onset fat loss in face / appearance of bags or malar mound under my eyes. I literally woke up with them This Sunday morning. It was not gradual and un-noticed as I am extremely aware of my skin. I am only 36, have a healthy diet and stay away from the sun so I am shocked by this very sudden appearance and it does not appear to be diminishing. It has destroyed my self confidence. I have added water intake, decreased salt nothing seems to be working at 5 days after appearance.
