Perimenopause, Postmenopause and Menopause Skin Changes

Lower estrogen levels during the perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause period make the skin more prone to thinning, sagging and wrinkling. The skin’s elasticity also decreases and this leads to sagging. Losing some fat from under the skin also contributes to the skin change of menopause.

The body’s natural production of collagen decreases by 1% from the mid-20s. This means that by the time one gets to the perimenopausal period they have developed fine lines and wrinkles due to the reduced collagen production.

Skin changes that occur during perimenopause, menopause and postmenopause periods include the following:

*Development of fine lines and wrinkles

Menopause Skincare

What Does Menopausal Skin Need?

Menopausal skin needs retinol, hyaluronic acid, peptides and vitamin C. The best skincare products for menopausal skin contain retinol to boost collagen production which decreases fine lines and wrinkles.

Perimenopause, Postmenopause and Menopause Skincare

To take the best care of your skin during the perimenopause, postmenopause or menopause periods do the following:

Increase Collagen Production

Collagen is a protein in the body which is responsible for keeping the skin firm and supple. Collagen production by the body begins to decline when a woman is in her 20s and it is therefore markedly reduced by the time a woman reaches menopause. This results in the development of fine lines, wrinkles and jowls as the skin begins to sag.

It is therefore vital to boost collagen production by using skincare products that contain retinol, peptides and vitamin C.

Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Moisturizer is one of the best menopause skincare products with retinol to stimulate collagen production and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol also exfoliates the skin and brightens dark patches. This Neutrogena retinol moisturizer also contains hyaluronic acid which hydrates and plumps the skin to minimize fine lines. It has also been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in 1 month. This Neutrogena moisturizer is fragrance-free, dye-free, paraben free and it does not contain mineral oil.

Increase Hyaluronic Acid Production

Hyaluronic acid is a compound which hydrates the skin. The skin’s production of hyaluronic acid can be increased by using skincare products with more than 10% glycolic acid formulated to an acid pH.

Reduce Skin Dullness

The skin tends to get dull as a woman ages since the rate at which it sheds the dead cells declines with age. Skincare products that help the skin shed the dead layer of cells and result in a youthful glow include those with ingredients like retinol, glycolic acid and salicylic acid.

Differin is one of the best menopause skincare products with a retinoid to decrease dullness. It can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order. We deliver countrywide/worldwide.

Reduce Skin Dryness

The skin gets increasingly dry as a woman ages due to plummeting of hormones which reduces the skin’s ability to hold water.

Skincare products that can help reduce the dryness and give the skin a plump appearance include those that contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid and glycerin. Lipids such as ceramides are also vital ingredients for menopausal moisturizers.

Elbbub Vitamin C AntiAging Serum is one of the best menopause skincare products with hyaluronic acid to reduce skin dryness.

Reduce Skin Rashes

The pH of the skin changes around menopause. This results in the skin becoming more sensitive and more likely to develop rashes. Fragrance-free skincare products are perfect for using with this sensitive skin.

Reduce Perimenopausal Acne Breakouts

Hormonal changes in the perimenopause period can trigger acne breakouts. The best skincare products for perimenopause acne contain salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide and retinol.

The first product in this kit is Cerave Acne Foaming Face Wash which contains benzoyl peroxide to battle the acne-causing bacteria. It should be used in the morning and evening to cleanse the face.

Slow Down Skin Aging

Skincare products that you can use to slow down the skin’s aging process include those that contain antioxidants like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, green tea and CoEnzyme Q10.

Applying sunscreen also helps the skin during menopause. Dermatologists recommend the use of sunscreen for menopausal skin since most of the skin’s aging is a result of exposure to the sun’s UV rays. Sunscreen application can also help some dark spots fade and prevent new ones from forming. Sunscreen should therefore be applied everyday and it should be a broad-spectrum sunscreen which protects from both UVA and UVB rays and has a SPF of 30 or above.

We recommend La Roche Posay SPF 50 Sunscreen since it is a broad-spectrum sunscreen that can be used by persons with dry skin, oily skin, combination skin, sensitive skin and mature skin. It can be purchased from our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Shop located on Moi Avenue, Sawa Mall, 3rd floor, Shop C15. Call 0721963156 or WhatsApp +254 721 963 156 to order.

Dermatological Procedures

Microneedling is a procedure which stimulates the skin to produce more collagen.

PRP stands for Platelet Rich Plasma and it contains growth factors which also stimulate collagen production.

What Skincare Ingredients Should Be Avoided During Menopause?

The following skincare ingredients should be avoided during menopause:

1.Fragrance should be avoided since the skin tends to be more dry and itchy in menopause and fragrance can trigger contact dermatitis whose symptoms include itchy, dry skin. Therefore choose fragrance-free products to avoid aggravating the skin itchiness and dryness of menopause.

2.Drying alcohol which is often called “ethyl alcohol” or “alcohol denat” in the labels should be avoided since it can also dry out the skin and increase the skin dryness of menopause.

3. Sulphates like sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) should be avoided because they can also cause contact dermatitis which is characterized by dry, itchy skin. These symptoms can aggravate the skin dryness and itchiness of menopause.

What is the best treatment for menopause?

The best treatment for menopause is one that relieves menopause symptoms without increasing the woman’s risk for developing serious conditions. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) relieves some of the symptoms of menopause like hot flashes and night sweats. It also improves sleep, reduces vaginal dryness and painful sex. HRT also reduces the risk of developing heart disease and fractures from osteoporosis.

However, side effects of HRT include developing breast cancer, cancer of the uterus, stroke, blood clots in the legs, blood clots in the lungs, breast pain, vaginal bleeding, gall bladder disease, bloating, nausea, diarrhea, headache, mood changes, muscle cramps, skin rash, itchy skin, hives, and allergic reactions.

Consequently HRT is not the best treatment for women who do not want to develop these conditions.

Our Menopause Expert Doctor does not use HRT. She uses food as medicine, supplements and lifestyle modifications to provide relief for menopause symptoms. This is the best treatment for menopause since it does not cause other illnesses. Email AlmasiSkincare@gmail.com to consult her.
