It is essential for ladies to take good care of their skin once the period of menopause or the end of menstrual cycle occurs.
The menopausal transition mostly begins between the ages of 45 years and 55 years
Women often faces several changes in the body in the months or years leading up to this phase.
According to dermatologist Dr. Anjali Mahato, there are some proactive measures that those experiencing menopause can introduce in their skincare routines -
Use a fragrance-free body wash and moisturizers rich in emollients and ceramides to moisturise the body daily.
Use regular sunscreen to help prevent collagen loss due to UV radiation from the sun
A topical retinoid product at night is best to boost skin cell turnover and collagen production in the skin.
Be vigilant of bodily changes and ensure that any non-healing spots or sores, new or changing moles, or any other growths on the skin is reviewed by a doctor
A yearly check up on any potential health issues from your doctor is a good idea which will ensure that you always stay fit and fine.
If you are concerned about redness or changes in skin quality or texture then you can consider non-invasive options such as chemical peels or lasers.
