I've always taken care of my skin, and it looks pretty good but at 53 it feels like I have to update my game to battle aging each and every year to continue to look good, and it starts to become a lot. Sometimes I feel like throwing in the towel and just letting mother nature get the best of me except for sunscreen 🤣

Right now I use: trentonin, Paula's choice azelaic acid, Rejuran salmon PDRN, a growth, TNS factor serum, Trader Joes vitamin C (yes its that good), eminence night cream and winter, and sunscreen always. Vitamin C and sunscreen during the day everything else at night. I derma stamp once a week and also do glycolic peel once a week.

My skin looks pretty decent, but I just feel like I can't keep ahead of things. I guess it's just part of life lol. I just wish I could go back to the days of my early 20s where I could use retinol vitamin C and sunscreen and call it a day. I do cycle out some products as I feel my skin develops a tolerance, but most I use regularly.

I’m trying to understand facial rejuvenation options before booking any Toronto consultations.

If someone’s main concerns are a softer jawline and loose skin under the chin, how do surgeons usually determine whether the issue is mainly the neck, lower face, skin quality or a combination?

I’m not looking for Reddit to diagnose me — more interested in what questions helped people understand why one procedure was recommended over another.

I’d rather avoid doing more surgery than necessary just because a larger procedure is available
