It's time to talk about something close to my heart - caring for menopausal skin:
Understanding Skin Changes and Solutions
As someone who is going through this transformative time, I've learnt firsthand the importance of taking extra care of my skin. Menopause is a natural phase in a woman's life, marked by significant hormonal shifts. As estrogen levels decline, many women experience noticeable changes in their skin. These changes can affect self-confidence and overall well-being, but with the right approach, you can keep your skin looking radiant and healthy.
Here’s a closer look at key skin changes during menopause, my favourite treatments, and skincare tips to help you feel refreshed and confident:
Key Skin Changes During Menopause
1. Collagen Loss
One of the most prominent effects of menopause on the skin is collagen loss. Women can lose up to 30% of their collagen in the first five years of menopause*, leading to diminished elasticity, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Our Solutions:
HydraLift Pro: This advanced Radiofrequency treatment penetrates deeply into the skin to stimulate fibroblast activity, encouraging collagen production and promoting a firmer, more youthful appearance.
Ultimate Collagen Banking: Microneedling with NCTF Serum for Menopausal Skin
When paired with the powerful NCTF serum, rich in hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and amino acids, this treatment deeply nourishes the skin and accelerates cell regeneration. For women in menopause, this combination targets fine lines, sagging skin, and uneven texture, offering a rejuvenated, youthful complexion while fortifying the skin against future aging.
2. Dryness
Estrogen plays a crucial role in helping the skin retain moisture. With reduced estrogen levels during menopause, many women experience increased dryness, tightness, and itchiness.
Our Solutions:
Hydrating Skincare Products: We are official partners of CLINICCARE and Neostrata products, which are specially formulated to boost hydration and improve elasticity, helping to restore softness and comfort to the skin.
In-Clinic Hydration Treatments: Tailored facials and treatments to deeply hydrate the skin, enhancing moisture retention and restoring your skin’s glow.
3. Increased Sensitivity
Many women notice their skin becoming more sensitive during menopause. Products or treatments that once worked well may now cause irritation or discomfort.
Our Solutions:
Anti-Inflammatory Treatments: Soothing masks can help reduce redness and inflammation, making them ideal for sensitive skin. These treatments can also be used post-procedure to enhance healing and comfort.
4. Pigmentation Changes
Hormonal fluctuations during menopause can cause dark spots and uneven skin tone. Increased pigmentation may become more visible, affecting skin clarity.
Our Solutions:
Chemical Peels: Can effectively target and lighten pigmentation, improving skin tone and brightness.
Polynucleotides: Promote the production of fresh collagen and elastic fibers by triggering the body’s natural cell regeneration process. This treatment is highly effective in restoring skin structure and reducing signs of aging. Beyond boosting collagen, polynucleotide treatments can help reduce pigmentation, offering a dual benefit for menopausal skin.
5. Acne and Breakouts
While acne is commonly associated with teenagers, hormonal changes during menopause can trigger adult acne, especially around the chin and jawline.
Our Solutions:
Topical Treatments: We recommend retinoids, AHAs, and BHAs to promote cell turnover, prevent clogged pores, and reduce breakouts.
Microneedling: This treatment can help improve skin texture and target acne-prone areas, leaving the skin smoother and clearer.
