Hello All, can anyone give me some advice regarding my cheeks/eyes. The skin has become puffy/lined and very dry, it is becomming quite noticable. I have put moisturiser on it but to no effect. I am currently on 100mg Levothyroxine and just come off anti depressants, is this a side effect of the medications I have been taking or of the hypothyroidism? thanks all in advance
