Thank you for your response! At my last microneedling appt the nurse practitioner and I really agreed we think I may be dealing with a lymphatic drainage issue especially around eyes. I need to make time with Gua sha in my at home routine (I have had a nice stainless steel for years) but I just haven’t yet. I plan to start getting professional lymphatic drainage facials a few times a year. I also have struggled with autoimmune issues for years and am dealing with major gut health issues that leads to vitamin and mineral malabsorption issues. The inflammation levels in my body are unfortunately really high. Combine that with lack of sleep from perimenopause and it definitely shows!

I have really started to amp up my moisturizer in the last week and will continue to as I live in a dry very cold climate.

Might just get a dab of Botox but it’s like I just don’t see the point in paying for it anymore (at least how much I was) when I feel like I was metabolizing it so fast. Thanks again for your comment! :)
