Beneficial treatments for menopausal skin

If you’re approaching the ‘change’ it’s likely you’ll be noticing a decline in your skin quality, along with all the other challenging aspects of going through perimenopause and menopause.

While these developments may be upsetting and affecting your confidence, it’s important to remember that you’re not alone and there are treatments that can help.

What happens to our skin during menopause

Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years as our hormone levels change.

As hormonal levels change, women may notice a shift in their skin texture, elasticity, and overall complexion. Collagen and elastin, which usually gives our skin its structure and firmness, production slows down.

Skin hydration is also affected, leaving us with dry and brittle skin.

Beneficial treatments for menopausal skin

Here at Libbie Wallace Skin Clinic, we specialise in treatments for mature women who are likely going through or approaching the menopause. Our top recommendations include:

• ProXN skincare: with xanthohumol as the hero ingredient, one of the strongest antioxidants, tones down redness, helps to fade pigmentation, gives the skin a healthy glow, and helps to slow the ageing process. We only recommend products that are backed by scientific evidence and will help to put together a regime that you can stick to.
• Polynucleotides: regenerate your aged and damaged skin cells to create a beautifully even. skin tone and smooth texture.
• Exosomes: excellent for inflammatory skin conditions, so ideal if you’re suffering from redness or eczema.
• HIFU: the heat generated from the ultrasound energy will stimulate collagen and elastin production, so this is a perfect option if you’re looking to tighten loose skin.
• HArmonyCA: combining the benefits of hyaluronic acid and a collagen stimulator (calcium hydroxyapatite), which stimulates collagen and elastin production, for both an instant lift and ongoing skin quality improvement.
• Hyaluronic Acid Fillers: able to lift sagging skin, replace lost volume and contour facial features, so an ideal method of reducing the multiple signs of ageing associated with menopause.
• Anti-wrinkle injections: we offer consultations for injections that can relax your wrinkles for smoother skin.
