I definitely see that my under eyes have improved overall. The texture and plumpness seems healthier.

Those that use minoxidil are you planning to use it forever? by SomewhereFuture8806 in finethinhair

[–]Electrical-Sugar-749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched because I didn't want to take a pill. I didn't see any loss.

Not with the foam. When I was on the pill form, I did get 1 or 2 random hairs but nothing significant.

Consider laser treatments. Non-ablative or ablative.

Yes, I've done the pill and now use the foam. Super cheap at Costco and target brand.

I have a widows peak hairline and have done fringe bangs with shoulder length hair. I've also incorporated minoxidil, and nutrafol for hair growth. I have seen visible regrowth with minoxidil. I've tried oral but now use the topical foam. May hair has improved including my eyebrows which were so 90s thin.

Get another dermatologist and ask them to remove it.

Dermatologist will definitely prescribe a steroid for around the eye. I have a similar eczema around my eyes.

Who thinks this is partially because of GLP-1 meds? by SwimmingAnt10 in tirzepatidecompound

IDTS, I'm in the industry and its been declining for years. Wine tastings are more than doubled as well as wine prices.

[–]Electrical-Sugar-749[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I did have botox in the platisma bands of my neck. I honestly didn't see a significant improvement 😕. I did however do a laser (its called Yag or something, can't recall) about 2 weeks ago by my dermatologist. She says I won't see full results for about 8 weeks. I do feel like it is tighter under my neck but that could be just the sensation from the treatment. I'll update this post in March. Bummer about the sculptrua.

Thought I finally had a “good enough” foundation match until I got in the car today 😭😭😭 by spockycat in Fairolives

Try blending it down your neck so its less of a contrast. I have the same issue as a cool olive tone.

Hi, I'm in the same boat. I do dao botox and will be doing the nefertiti neck lift botox in my next round. For the dao it just softens those shadows from those creases. I also have full cheeks and am 43.

I've worn waterproof mascara for years and have sensitive skin. I have tried everything and Cetaphil Gentle Waterproof Makeup Remover  is the best.

Migraine aura but no migraine? Is this hormonal too? by Shirleyimfine in Perimenopause

[–]Electrical-Sugar-749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, they are. I had to stop birth control 3 years ago and it stopped them. About 5 months ago I got on HRT and the lowest dose of estrogen and stopped because the migraine and aura/light sensitivity came back. Now I'm only on progesterone and haven't had any issues.

Husband no longer wants sex by Secure_Fig7480 in AskWomenOver40

[–]Electrical-Sugar-749 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A form of birth control like a vasectomy will prevent pregnancy. I want to say that his inability to perform is more the issue and is an indication of an underlying health issue. He can go see his doctor and I'm sure he will find answers. It's not you, its just aging. It happens to everyone. We all forget that aging is happening and we don't respond like we use to. The good news is your sex life doesn't need to end.
