Skin Changes in Women
Itchy. Wrinkled. Crepey. These are words we routinely hear when new clients describe their skin…because imbalanced hormones can make your skin dry—really dry. If left untreated, menopausal skin will eventually thin and lose its elasticity.
Causes of Changing Skin
Healthy skin contains plenty of natural oils to keep it moisturized, as well as ample collagen to keep it firm. But your skin can’t produce either of these without healthy amounts of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid.
These hormones decline during perimenopause and menopause. As a consequence, the skin produces less oil and less collagen.
Treatment for Skin Changes
No one wants dry, itchy skin. And no woman relishes the idea of looking older than she’d care to. The former is a matter of physical comfort. The latter can affect how a woman feels about herself. We can do something about both. Hormone therapy works from the inside out to rejuvenate skin. We also have specially formulated face creams that work from the outside in. Your skin can age better, and we can show you how.
