Supporting Your Skin Through Menopause: How The Skin Clinic Antigonish can help.

Understanding the Changes

Menopause is a natural part of life, but the hormonal changes it brings can have a noticeable impact on your skin and hair. As estrogen levels decline, the skin’s natural collagen production slows, elasticity decreases, and hydration levels drop.

These internal shifts can lead to dryness, dullness, fine lines, breakouts, and even changes in hair growth. At The Skin Clinic Antigonish, we understand that these changes aren’t just skin-deep—they can affect how you feel in your own skin.

Our healthcare-based approach to medical aesthetics focuses on restoring balance, supporting overall skin health, and helping you feel confident through every stage of life.

Common Skin and Hair Concerns During Menopause

Many women in perimenopause or menopause notice one or more of the following:

• Dryness and dehydration from reduced oil production

  
  

• Loss of firmness and elasticity as collagen levels decline

  
  

• Acne or breakouts triggered by hormonal fluctuations

  
  

• Thinning hair or hair loss caused by changes in estrogen and androgens

  
  

• Uneven tone or pigmentation as cell turnover slows

  
  

Understanding these shifts is the first step toward finding effective solutions that work for your unique skin.

How Medical-Grade Skincare Can Help

At The Skin Clinic Antigonish, we trust medical-grade skincare to deliver results you can see and feel. Unlike over-the-counter products, these formulations are backed by clinical research and contain active ingredients at proven concentrations.

For menopausal skin, we often recommend pharmaceutical-grade lines such as Vivier, which combine high-quality ingredients with medical expertise to support skin health at every level. A tailored routine may include products that:

• Boost hydration with hyaluronic acid and peptides

  
  

• Stimulate collagen with vitamin C and retinol

  
  

• Soothe sensitivity with antioxidants and barrier-strengthening ingredients

  
  

• Protect from sun damage with daily SPF formulated for sensitive skin

  
  

Our team will guide you through a personalized plan that aligns with your skin’s current needs and long-term goals.

Med Spa Treatments That Support Hormonal Skin Health

While skincare creates a strong foundation, professional treatments can help address deeper changes related to aging and hormone shifts.

Some of our most popular and effective options include:

• Microneedling (with or without PRP): Stimulates collagen and improves texture, tone, and firmness.

  
  

• Laser Skin Renewal (Clarity II): Reduces pigmentation, redness, and sun damage for a more even complexion.

  
  

• Chemical Peels: Encourage cell turnover, refine texture, and restore radiance.

  
  

• PRP Hair Restoration: Supports healthy hair growth and scalp rejuvenation.

  
  

• Biostimulators: Hydrate and firm the skin from within for lasting, natural-looking results.

  
  

Every treatment at our Antigonish clinic begins with a consultation to ensure your safety, comfort, and best possible outcome.
