Menopause in Aesthetics

As aesthetic practitioners, our ability to plan effective, safe, and personalised treatments relies on a deep understanding of the skin—not just as an isolated surface, but as a dynamic organ influenced by age, lifestyle, and crucially, hormones.

This manual is designed to increase awareness and confidence around treating clients who are going through—or approaching—hormonal changes, particularly those linked to peri-menopause and menopause. However, to appreciate how hormones influence the skin, we must first look at the wider ageing process and consider the shifts that happen at every layer of the face, across the decades of a woman’s life.
