Perimenopause and menopause are natural stages in a woman’s life that occur as she ages. These stages can have a significant impact on the aging process, including changes in the skin, hair, and body. Zinnia Aesthetics and Anti-Aging Clinic is dedicated to helping women navigate these changes through various treatments and services. In today’s post we will explore the impact of perimenopause and menopause on the aging process and how we can help women look and feel their best during this time.
The Aging Process and Perimenopause/Menopause
As women age, the body undergoes many changes. During perimenopause and menopause, the body experiences a significant decrease in estrogen levels, which can lead to various physical changes. These changes include thinning hair, dry skin, and a decrease in collagen production, which can lead to fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, women may experience weight gain, decreased muscle mass and bone mass, memory loss, low libido, painful intercourse, and other changes that can impact the aging process.
Menopause occurs in women typically around the age of 50. It is marked by the cessation of menstrual periods and a decline in hormone production, particularly Estrogen, Progesterone and Testosterone. Perimenopause is the transitional period before menopause, during which hormone levels fluctuate and menstrual cycles may become irregular. While this is a normal phase of life, it can bring about various changes in the body, including changes in the skin. Studies show that we lose about 30% of our collagen during the first five years of menopause; then about 2% every year for the next 20 years. We need collagen for dewy, glowy, plump skin. With the diminishing levels of hormones, we lose facial fullness, skin becomes less elastic and more prone to wrinkling.
Anti-Aging Treatments for Perimenopause/Menopause
Zinnia Aesthetics and Anti-Aging Clinic offer a range of treatments that can help combat the effects of perimenopause and menopause on the aging process. These treatments include facial rejuvenation, body contouring, and skin treatments that can help restore collagen and improve skin elasticity. Additionally, the clinic offers hormone replacement therapy, which can help alleviate symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, including hot flashes, night sweats, and mood swings.
These are several non-invasive In- Clinic treatments that can help promote the production of collagen and elastin:
PRP: Platelet Rich Plasma is an autologous way to harness the body’s regenerative power to promote collagen and elastin production.
Laser therapy: Certain laser treatments can help promote collagen production by heating up the skin and stimulating the body’s natural healing response. These can range from non ablative to ablative lasers
Radio frequency coupled with microneedling: This treatment device uses tiny needles to create small punctures in the skin with radio frequency energy to heat up the deep layers of the skin to promote the production of collagen and elastin.
Chemical peels: Certain types of chemical peels can help promote the production of collagen and elastin by removing the outer layers of dead skin cells and stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin.
Hair Restoration for Thinning Hair
Thinning hair is a common symptom of perimenopause and menopause. Zinnia Aesthetics and Anti-Aging Clinic offer various hair restoration treatments, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP therapy involves using a patient’s blood platelets to stimulate hair growth, while hair transplants involve transplanting healthy hair follicles from one area of the scalp to another.
