Menopause & Your Skin: Managing Changes with Medical Aesthetics

Menopause brings significant hormonal changes that can affect the skin’s texture, elasticity, and hydration levels. As oestrogen levels decline, the skin often becomes drier, thinner, and less firm, leading to concerns such as sagging, fine lines, redness, and pigmentation. At Define by Marie Dolan, we offer advanced, nurse-led treatments to help restore, hydrate, and strengthen menopausal skin, ensuring a radiant, youthful appearance at every stage of life.

How Menopause Affects the Skin

The drop in oestrogen and collagen production during menopause leads to:

• Loss of Elasticity: Skin may appear looser, especially around the jawline and neck.

• Dryness & Dehydration: Reduced oil production can cause dullness, flakiness, and discomfort.

• Increased Sensitivity & Redness: Thinner skin is more prone to irritation, redness, and broken capillaries.

• Pigmentation & Age Spots: Hormonal shifts can lead to uneven skin tone, sunspots, and melasma.

While these changes are a natural part of ageing, medical-grade skin treatments can help restore lost volume, improve hydration, and stimulate collagen production for firmer, healthier skin.
