Skin and hair concerns during menopause
Menopause brings many changes, including changes to your skin and hair. Our dermatologist helps you with targeted treatment tailored to your symptoms.
What happens to your skin and hair during menopause?
During menopause, including both perimenopause and menopause, estrogen levels decline significantly. Estrogen plays an important role in collagen production, maintaining skin hydration, and supporting hair growth.
Due to these hormonal changes, the skin may become drier, thinner, and more sensitive. Hair may start to thin or fall out. Some women experience acne, itching, or pigmentation spots for the first time.
What can a dermatologist do for you?
Many skin and hair concerns during menopause are medically harmless, but they can still have a significant impact on how you feel and function. An online consultation with our dermatologist can help identify your symptoms and improve them with a targeted approach. In many cases, small adjustments can already make a big difference.
