How does menopause affect your skin?
Falling estrogen levels during menopause reduce collagen and sebum production. Skin becomes dry, loses elasticity, wrinkles deepen and the contours of the face start to sag.
What skin changes are typical?
Dryness, thin, paper-like skin, deeper wrinkles, hormonal pigment spots, hot flashes and redness. The scalp can also become thinner.
How do you care for your skin during menopause?
Intensive hydration with ceramides and hyaluronic acid. Retinol and peptides stimulate collagen production. Phytoestrogens (soy and red clover extracts) support elasticity. SPF 50+ is a must.
Which supplements can support your skin?
Hydrolyzed collagen, vitamin C, omega-3 fatty acids and phytoestrogens support the skin from within – if you have symptoms, discuss your choice with your doctor.
