How can I reduce nasolabial folds and premature aging at 26 years old from topical corticosteroid atrophy?

May 3, 2018
Asked By:Geffennudges in Vancouver, BC

I have reached the point where I need to do something about my face, it seems like it is now or never after I age more the lines will be more pronounced and set. I get alot of comments where ever I go asking if I used to be a heavy smoker or if I am alot older then I am. Having mild skin problems as a child I got given prescription topical steroidsteroids for my face by a well meaning adult. I realized the strong corticosteroids must have atrophied parts of my face.
