Menopause and Wrinkles

Most women know that the lower production of estrogen and progesterone that occurs with menopause can lead to osteoporosis, but few know that it also has a profound impact on the appearance and quality of their skin.

Dyness and wrinkling of our skin increase because we lose as much as 30% of our skin’s collagen in the first five years following menopause. Over-the-counter skin care products do not have the same concentration or effectiveness as products provided by a board certified plastic surgeon. If you aren’t on a doctor-prescribed skin care program yet, make sure you call us today so my staff and I can help you preserve your skin’s health and appearance.
