Menopausal skin 

Menopause is a significant life transition, bringing numerous changes that notably affect the skin. The hormonal fluctuations during this period can lead to dryness, reduced elasticity, and increased sensitivity, often catching many by surprise. 

Many of the changes your skin will go through during menopause can be attributed to oestrogen loss. Its rapid decline affects skin’s elasticity, texture, density, resilience, hydration, and suppleness—all of which ultimately lead to crêpe-textured skin that loses its 'bounce' or elasticity. Some may experience acne breakouts, some more dryness. It is very individual when it comes how each patient will go through it. 

Rather shockingly, collagen can decrease as much as 30% in the first few years of menopause, causing skin to become thinner, weaker, and more prone to sensitivity, expressing signs of environmental damage.
