Menopause Makeover in Washington, D.C.
Menopause brings major changes to a woman's body, including noticeable effects on the skin.
As estrogen levels decrease, signs of aging throughout the face and body become more prominent, often marked by skin laxity, wrinkles, and volume loss.
At West End Plastic Surgery in Washington, D.C., we believe beauty and confidence don’t end with menopause—they evolve. Our Menopause Makeover addresses these changes through customized body and facial treatments designed for the many women navigating the changes that come with midlife. Our board-certified plastic surgeons and aesthetic specialists combine surgical techniques and cutting-edge non-surgical treatments to rejuvenate the face and body and restore a youthful look.
During menopause, hormonal shifts, particularly the loss of estrogen, lead to changes in the skin's structure and texture.
These shifts result in sagging, dryness, and a loss of elasticity. Estrogen is essential to collagen production, and as levels decrease, the skin loses its natural firmness and smoothness.
This process can lead to deeper wrinkles, looser skin, and a lack of volume, especially around the cheeks, jawline, and neck, as well as excess body fat and a crepey appearance in various areas of the body. Recognizing the difference between pre- and post-menopausal skin aging can help select the most effective treatment.
Our Menopause Makeover delivers a tailored combination of procedures to help you reclaim your youthful body shape and facial appearance with the help of our trusted plastic surgeons.
