Your Skin Isn’t Failing — It’s Changing
Understanding skin changes during perimenopause & menopause
- Many women notice their usual skincare stops working from their late 30s — often during perimenopause, not just menopause.
- Hormonal shifts reduce collagen, natural oils & hyaluronic acid, leaving skin thinner, drier & less resilient.
- Skin repair slows; sensitivity, pigmentation, dullness & fine lines become more noticeable.
- SPF & medical-grade skincare support the skin barrier & prevention, but cannot fully reverse deep biological changes.
- In clinic, we see the best results with doctor-led, personalised treatments such as skin boosters, RF microneedling, regenerative therapies & collagen stimulators.
- For optimal results, the face, neck & décolletage should be treated as one cohesive aesthetic unit.
Doctor’s summary:
Skin changes often begin in perimenopause. Prevention helps, but visible ageing usually requires doctor-led clinical care. For balanced rejuvenation, treat the face, neck & décolletage together.
