Lunchtime facelift did THIS

Leigh Cobb, 48, Birmingham

Gazing at my reflection, I winced.

‘What have I done to myself? I fretted.

It was October 2014 and I was 42, but looked years older.

From head to toe, my skin was wrinkled and scorched.

And I only had myself to blame.

Working in financial sales, I wanted to look my best in client meetings.

For me, that meant a golden-brown tan.

For years, I’d been obsessed with having a sun-kissed glow and went on sunbeds three times a week.

I went away on loads of beach holiday, too.
