Ageing skin
Lets talk about the Menopause
Menopause typically occurs between the ages of 45 and 55 years as a natural part of biological ageing.
During this time, hormone production changes, specifically a decrease in oestrogen levels. Oestrogen receptors are found in many parts of the body, including the face, which can explain the sensation of persistent dryness, dullness, and decreased skin laxity.
As part of our consultation at Zolu Aesthetics, we conduct a thorough skin analysis and can offer a variety of award-winning skin care options as well as injectable treatments. One of which is Profhilo Structura providing intense and long-lasting hydration at the cellular level. Furthermore, additional LED light therapy can help to restore the skin's natural glow, thanks to its clinically proven red and near infrared wavelengths, which are therapeutically effective at energizing.
Physical Issues Faced by Women Going Through the Menopause
Reduced Collagen and Skin Elasticity:
Loss of Plumpness and Wrinkles:
The reduction in collagen leads to a loss of skin plumpness, resulting in a more wrinkled appearance.
Creasing and Sagging: The skin becomes more prone to creasing and sagging due to decreased elasticity.
Thinner Skin:
Volume Loss: There is a noticeable decrease in volume in the cheeks, lips, and jawline as the skin thins.
Hair Changes:
Thinning Hair and Hair Loss: Hair growth can weaken, leading to thinner hair or hair loss.
Aesthetic Solutions for Menopausal Skin
Dermal Fillers
Volume Restoration: Fillers can restore lost volume in areas like the cheeks, lips, and jawline, helping to counteract the effects of thinning skin and loss of plumpness.
Skin Boosters
Microinjections of skin rejuvenating Hyaluronic Acid placed under the skin, restores moisture in the skin, which improves elasticity, radiance and firmness
Polynucleotides
Injectable bio-stimulators, purified from DNA fragments that encourage collagen and elastin production, two essential proteins within the skin which decrease with age. Polynucleotides go a step further than skin boosters by activating fibroblasts within the skin unlocking your skins natural regenerative potential.
Advanced Skin Procedures:
Chemical Peels and Microneedling: These procedures can improve skin tone and texture, giving the skin a smoother and more radiant appearance.
Tailored Treatment Plans:
Each woman experiences menopause differently. At Zolu we pride ourselves on ensuring that all treatment plans are unique and bespoke to meet individual needs and concerns.
Empathy and Expertise:
Approaching patients with empathy and a thorough understanding of menopause can help them feel more confident and empowered.
