What Menopause Does To Your Skin (and how we can help)

Treatments for Menopausal Skin at Ritual Beauty Salons in Alton & Alresford

When you think about, what first comes to mind?  Hot flushes? Forgetfulness? Mood changes?

They often steal the spotlight but one of the biggest changes happens somewhere you can actually see every day... your skin.

If you've noticed your skincare routine isn't working quite like it used to, you are not imagining it! Menopause brings a natural shift in hormone levels, particularly oestrogen, which plays a vital role in keeping skin healthy, hydrated and resilient.

The good news?  Understanding what's happening is the first step to giving your skin exactly what it needs.

Your skin may feel drier than before.  As oestrogen declines, your skin produces less natural oil and holds onto less moisture. You may notice your skin feeling tighter, drier or more dehydrated, even if you've never had dry skin before.

Fine lines can appear more quickly.  Collagen and elastin are the building blocks that keep skin firm and bouncy. During menopause, collagen production naturally slows, meaning skin can become thinner, less elastic and fine lines may become more noticeable.

Skin can become more sensitive. Many women find their skin suddenly reacts to products they've used for years. This happens because the skin barrier becomes weaker, making it more prone to redness, irritation and sensitivity.

Your complexion may lose some of its glow. Cell turnover slows with age, meaning fresh new skin cells take longer to reach the surface. The result can be dullness, uneven texture and pigmentation that appears more noticeable than before.

Hormonal changes don't affect everyone equally. Some women experience breakouts for the first time in years, while others notice increased facial hair, redness or rosacea flare-ups. Menopause is different for everyone, which is why there's no one-size-fits-all skincare routine.

The important thing to remember is that these changes are completely normal. Your skin isn't "failing"... It's changing, just as the rest of your body is.

The good news is that with the right treatments and a skincare routine designed for menopausal skin, you can improve hydration, strengthen the skin barrier, support collagen production, and restore a healthy, radiant complexion!
