How Does Menopause Affect the Skin, and What Treatments Are Available to Help?

How Does Menopause Affect the Skin, and What Treatments Are Available to Help?

Posted September 2023

Unfortunately, how menopause affects the skin is often overlooked and rarely discussed despite how normal this process is. Menopause is a transformative phase in a woman’s life, bringing various changes. Keeping it real, these changes can be a pretty tricky time for most women, which is why we want to bring to light not only what’s actually happening to our skin during menopause, but also the skincare and skin treatment options available so you can make informed decisions. Above all else, we want you to feel good about how you look no matter what stage of life you’re in.

We’ve put together four different PMAC Menopause Management Plans, ranging from Bronze to Platinum, for a comprehensive and tailored approach to skin rejuvenation. The treatment plans run for 5-9 months, with specifically scheduled in-clinic treatments and include complementary home skin care. The packages involve our top treatments, such as Peels, Dermapen, Nano Frac and Tribella. We’ll go into these in a little more detail below. But first, some important information about what’s actually happening to our skin during menopause.

So how does menopause affect the skin?

Menopause is defined by a cessation of menstrual cycles and a drop in the production of key hormones like estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen, in particular, plays a crucial role in maintaining skin health. It activates oestrogen receptors in key skin cells, stimulating the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid to promote healthy skin and a vibrant-looking appearance. So, when estrogen levels fall, it leads to various changes in the skin's structure and function.

What’s happening under the surface?
30% loss of skin’s collagen within the first five years of menopause
1% loss of skin’s collagen in each subsequent year
1% decline in skin thickness in each postmenopausal year
Some normal things you might notice:

  • Dryness and Itching
  • Wrinkles and Fine Lines
  • Acne and Breakouts
  • Skin Sensitivity
  • Pigmentation and Sunspots
It’s all normal, but the good news is that you can take control and redefine how your skin ages.

These are our top treatments for looking after menopausal skin:

Tribella

TriBella is the ultimate NON-SURGICAL skin rejuvenation treatment that simultaneously enhances tone, tightness and texture. Combining the power of three unique non-surgical procedures into one complete skin renewal treatment results in incredibly smoother, younger, healthier-looking skin. The high-intensity, non-invasive solution gives highly visible results faster in fewer treatments. Tribella is three treatments in one:

Tone 

Step 1 - PHOTOREJUVENATION

Utilising intense pulsed light (IPL) technology to deliver direct bursts of energy onto targeted areas of skin to treat benign pigmented lesions and benign vascular lesions. 

Elasticity

Step 2 - ANTI-AGEING
Powered by (MP2) Multi-Polar Radio Frequency (RF) and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) to enhance collagen and elastin production to reduce wrinkles and rhytides. 

Texture

Step 3 - SKIN RESURFACING
Utilising Nano Fractional RFTM. Improves the appearance of textural skin conditions such as acne scars, rosacea, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores and pigmentation.

Medical Grade Skin Needling 

Restore your skin to its optimal health with the help of Dermapen 4. The new Dermapen 4 promises to safely deliver fast and effective results from a DermapenWorld Authorised Treatment Provider. This revolutionary skin pen is the best device for collagen induction therapy- a skin rejuvenation procedure that treats a myriad of skin conditions through natural and safe collagen production.

  • Stretch marks
  • Enlarged pores
  • Acne scars, surgical scars, atrophic scars
  • Uneven skin complexion and texture
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Fine lines, Wrinkles, and other skin aging signs

Chemical Peels

Regular cell turnover and exfoliation are essential to healthy skin. With chronological ageing, as well as exposure to environmental damage (including UV rays), our desquamation slows. This can lead to a build-up of dead surface cells, followed by an appearance of dull complexion, and compromised skin barrier function. Chemical peels (such as ENERPEEL) help to accelerate exfoliation, revealing an even and radiant complexion.

  • Small scars
  • Leathery textured skin
  • Pigmentary irregularities
  • Moderate to severe hyperpigmentation
  • Fine lines and deep wrinkles, signs of ageing
We recommend a Lactic Acid peel that stimulates the production of new collagen and reduction of fine lines. It has a natural moisturising effect on the skin as a result of attracting water molecules to the stratum corneum, stimulating ceramides synthesis and enhancing and modulating the barrier function. Indicated for sensitive, dry and thinning skin and delicate areas such as the neck and decollete due to being highly tolerated by the skin.


There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, nor is there a single treatment that will solve all problems.

This is why we recommend a multifaceted approach. We’ve specifically designed our Menopause Skin Management Packages, which combine multiple treatments spaced apart to give you the best results. 

Our dedicated team of professionals are committed to helping you navigate this transition with confidence, offering personalised treatments and guidance to rejuvenate and restore your skin's vitality.

We look forward to embarking on this transformative journey together!

Our Menopause packages range from Bronze to Platinum, and there’s one to suit every budget. Each one comes with bonus skincare to boost your results. You can view our packages online, or get started straight away with a consult.
