The real strong lines where my skin was forming those man lines next to my mouth on both side is still there ,eventhough; the muscle structer has changed and the skin has softed. When I pull it back it reveals a young beautful person. tips on toning skin would be great. I look silly staring at myself in the mirror all day holding it back. trick wound work also to hold it back or something like that. help!!!!

That's a tricky one, there's no easy remedy.  They're called nasolabial folds and they're a normal female problem.  It depends on your budget, the most expensive is surgery in which a surgeon will tighten them up, the next cheapest choice is Botox or a filler of some description.  A good dermatologist can help you with that (make sure of their qualifications).  If they're both to steep for you, I'm afraid it's down to good old skin care.  Buy a skin cream with vitamin A or retinol in it and over time it should help.  To be honest we should all do this anyway, remember the three steps cleanse, exfoliate and moisturise.  And always wear a moisturiser with sun cream of SPF30 or more.

Most of the semi expensive stuff is not better than a nicer perfumed version of the cheaper stuff. I'm afraid paying a bit more is key here.

Hope this helps.

well thanks for the help. Maybe if I put on some more weight in my face it would pull some of it out. lol. ;D

I'm tempted to try this as I have the same problem :

I probably won't buy that but try some surgical tape wrapped around an elastic band.

believe it or not. I have been thinking of something like this myself. some way to pull it back. those breath right strips you put over your nose to open nasual passages. would hold to the skin like on your nose. But connecting them to pull back the skin has been a problem area. brainstorming together will bring other ideas for this as well. If I figure it I will post it. Thanks for the website it aided in my thoughts on this on how to get it to work. ;D
