by MONAT Global

Menopause, along with everything else you might be experiencing in your body, can also bring with it some noticeable (and not so favourable) changes to the skin and hair.

However, with the right care and products, you can help lessen these effects. Let’s dive into some common hair and skin concerns you might see pop up during menopause. 

Age Spots & Signs of Sun Damage 

During menopause changes in hormone levels, particularly a decrease in estrogen, can contribute to skin changes, including age spots and discolouration becoming more prominent.

Dry, Dehydrated Skin 

Several factors can contribute to dry and dehydrated skin during menopause including changing hormonal levels, decreased collagen and ceramide product and thinning of the skin.

Thinner-looking Hair 

Thinning hair during menopause is a common issue for many women, primarily due to hormonal changes, particularly the decrease in estrogen and progesterone levels.

Around this time, many women also experience a slowdown in the hair growth cycle.  

Our recommendation

Slack Skin & Wrinkles 

Thinning skin and a decrease in ceramide and collagen production can lead to slacker looking skin and further development of wrinkles during menopause.

Pimples and Acne Resurgence 

Pimples and acne can experience a resurgence during menopause due to several hormonal and physiological changes that occur during this time. 

Our recommendation

Easily Irritated Skin 

Estrogen supports the production of lipids (fats) that help form the skin’s protective barrier, which keeps moisture in and harmful irritants out. A decrease in estrogen during menopause can result in a weaker skin barrier, making the skin more vulnerable to dryness, itching, and irritation. 

Our recommendation
