Am hiv + my worry is the loss of fat on my face which am experiencing. is there an alternative to reversing this?

Maybe: Certain medications like stavudine and azt (zidovudine) were more likely to cause facial wasting when we used to use these medications more. Sometimes the natural changes that happen when people get older make previous changes more prominent. Talk to your provider about your regimen. There are cosmetic fillers that can give great results. Make sure the dermatologist has experience in this area.
