Women’s bodies undergo various changes during menopause, affecting not only their physical appearance but their mood, energy, and overall health as well. During this time, women may feel self-conscious and may lose their confidence because they feel they have finally lost their youth and beauty. Botox treatments and other non-invasive cosmetic procedures may help women undergoing menopause regain their self-confidence and once again feel beautiful inside and out.
What happens to the skin during menopause?
Women may notice that their skin has become dry and dull, and their wrinkles and fine lines have become more pronounced. This is because during menopause, women’s hormone levels begin to dwindle down, which affects the skin’s elasticity and suppleness. As we age, collagen and elastin levels go down causing wrinkles, lines, and creases to slowly appear. During menopause, this process is enhanced, so to speak, which is why some women may notice that their dynamic wrinkles have now become permanent. In addition, the loss of estrogen causes a loss of sebecous oil gland production in the skin causing the skin to become very dry which also increases the appearance of wrinkles.
Botox treatments like Botox Cosmetic® injections reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, which could help prevent or postpone these wrinkles from becoming permanent.*
*Consult your doctor about your wrinkles, fine lines, and facial creases to accurately determine which ones can be effectively reduced by Botox treatments like Botox Cosmetic® injections. Find out too if they could turn into permanent wrinkles as a side effect of menopause.
Botox treatments
Botox treatments like Botox Cosmetic® injections target dynamic wrinkles or those wrinkles that appear with facial movements like smiling (crow’s feet), frowning (forehead lines), and furrowing your eyebrows (11’s between the eyebrows).
What Botox does is to temporarily paralyze the muscles that cause these wrinkles and lines to appear. So once your Botox Cosmetic® treatment takes full effect, usually about a week or two after treatment, you will notice that these same lines and wrinkles no longer appear or are less prominent with every facial expression.
