Can I have aesthetic treatments while on HRT?

Yes, absolutely. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and aesthetic treatments often work beautifully together. HRT helps restore estrogen levels systemically, while our treatments (like Profhilo® or Polynucleotides) target the skin directly to repair structure. During your consultation, we will review your medical history to ensure safety.

What is the best treatment for menopausal neck sagging?

The 'menopausal neck' is caused by a loss of collagen. We find the most effective non-surgical approach is a combination therapy using Profhilo® to hydrate and tighten, combined with the Alma Harmony ClearLift™ laser to rebuild collagen deep in the dermis. This firms and lifts without surgery.

How do I treat hormonal acne without harsh chemicals?

Menopausal acne is often deep and cystic. Instead of harsh chemicals, we recommend the Alma Harmony ClearSkin™ laser. It targets the source of the acne (bacteria and inflammation) deep within the pore while cooling and soothing the skin, clearing breakouts without damaging your delicate barrier.

Is it too late to start Collagen Banking if I am post-menopausal?

It is never too late. While 'banking' is ideal in perimenopause, post-menopausal treatment shifts to 're-awakening.' We use potent biostimulators like Profhilo® and energy-based devices to wake up dormant skin cells (fibroblasts) and force them to restart collagen production, strengthening the skin at any age.

Studies show that women lose up to 30% of their skin's collagen in the first five years of menopause. Here is how we help.

Nurse-Led Care for Hormonal Skin Change

For many women, the changes seem to happen overnight. You wake up one day and the skincare routine that has worked for years suddenly stops delivering. Your skin might feel thinner, drier, or simply 'not yours' anymore. This is not just 'aging.' This is hormonal ageing, and it requires a targeted, medical-led approach.

As we enter perimenopause, our oestrogen levels decline. Oestrogen helps maintain hydration, thickness, and collagen production. Hormonal skin change requires treatments that go deeper than topical skincare. Every patient at DG Medical Aesthetics receives a personalised plan based on their skin's condition, their menopausal stage, and medications including HRT.

Menopause Skin Treatments We Offer

Clinically proven options tailored to your distinct hormonal phase.

Profhilo

Deep Skin Remodelling for Collagen Loss

A highly concentrated hyaluronic acid biostimulator injected at five bio-aesthetic points. For menopausal patients, Profhilo addresses the root cause of skin laxity rather than masking it: the loss of collagen and dermal structure that accelerates with declining oestrogen.

Best For

Skin laxity, dullness, and loss of firmness.

Downtime

1-2 days (minor bumps).

Sensation

Mild discomfort.

Also available as Profhilo Structura for deeper definition.

Polynucleotides

Regenerative Treatment for Thinning, Fragile Skin

Derived from purified DNA, polynucleotides stimulate fibroblast activity, the cells responsible for producing collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Highly effective where menopausal skin has become thin, fragile, or reactive.

Best For

Thin, crepey skin, and dark under-eyes.

Downtime

1-3 days.

Sensation

Mild discomfort.

Typically given as a course of three to four sessions.

Alma Harmony

Laser for Pigmentation, Redness & Texture

Menopausal skin is vulnerable to pigmentation changes and broken capillaries. Our Alma Harmony XL Pro system offers targeted modalities like ClearLift (laxity), Dye-VL (redness/rosacea), and ClearSkin (hormonal acne) to address these precisely.

Best For

Pigmentation, redness, acne and uneven texture.

Downtime

Varies by modality (0 to 7 days).

Sensation

Varies from warmth to mild flicking.

Full patch test and consultation required prior to laser.

Wrinkle Relaxing & Fillers

Subtle Structural Restoration

Oestrogen loss accelerates dynamic expression lines and causes facial fat pads to atrophy. We strategically place dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxing injections to restore foundational support and soften lines, without reinventing your face.

Best For

Jowling, deep folds, and expressive wrinkles.

Downtime

3-7 days (potential bruising).

Sensation

Mild to moderate.

We prioritise a 'whisper, not shout' approach to structural restoration.

Addressing Menopause Skin Changes

Common symptoms of the 'Oestrogen Drop' and how we treat them.

Sudden or Persistent Dryness

Your usual moisturiser may suddenly feel inadequate. We use advanced skin boosters to deliver hydration directly into the dermis to replicate lost moisture retention.

Loss of Firmness & Bone Resorption

Accelerated collagen loss and fat pad migration lead to jowls and neck laxity. We combat this using targeted dermal fillers and Profhilo to restore lost foundational structure.

Adult Acne & Increased Sensitivity

Hormonal shifts trigger jawline breakouts, while a compromised barrier makes skin reactive. We use gentle, non-ablative lasers like ClearSkin to treat acne at its source.

The Holistic Picture: Diet & Lifestyle

To truly 'bank' collagen, you need building blocks. A high-protein diet, oral collagen supplements, omega-3s, Vitamin C, and daily broad-spectrum SPF are essential to support our clinical treatments.
