rare skin condition on face, extremely depressed
For the past 4 years, I have become extremely depressed and reclusive due to my skin problem on my face. I no longer meet people with confidence. The skin on my face is severly dry, red, with red spots due to dryness, flaky, has a uneven and dull tone with fine wrinkles all over. While the rest of my body is healthy looking and perfectly fine, my face lacks extreme moisture, sebum and plumpness. Its like I am missing a cruicial layer of my skin which every body else has. When I smile, it wrinkles due to lack of moisture. This is depressing for me! I am only 23 years old and I only eat healthy foods and raw fruits and vegetables, I exercise daily and moisturise.I have exhausted every possible solution suggested such as creams, medical creams, taking multivitamins, fish oil, omega 3 tablets, shea and coco butter. Please advise the best homeopathic treatment,
thank you
