How can I fix the skin on my face after weight loss? (Photo)

March 7, 2020
Asked By:Saraclairex in UK

I’m 32 and over the last two years I gained around 10kg then lost it again. As a result I think my face has aged quite quickly - my lower face seems to have loose skin that folds when I smile, and I’ve developed noticeable lines under my eyes. I already use a topical retinoid on an evening and sunscreen every day, but am not sure how to fix the looseness in my face?
