Hormonal ageing can lead to collagen loss and as a result, cause the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. How do you identify hormonal ageing, and how can you delay it?
Hormonal ageing can lead to collagen loss and as a result, cause the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. How do you identify hormonal ageing, and how can you delay it?
Most of us know the effects that ageing has on our skin – loss of firmness, the emergence of wrinkles and deeper expression lines – but what causes it exactly? Our bodies go through a lot of changes as we age and while oestrogen (the female hormone) doesn’t directly affect skin’s structure like collagen and hyaluronic acid does, it is responsible for triggering and accelerating certain signs of ageing.

SIGNS OF HORMONAL AGEING:
1 Breaking out
When you are in your late 20s, oestrogen levels decline faster than testosterones, causing an imbalance which often leads to increased sebum production which can cause pimples.
2 Brown patches appear
When women enter menopause, some doctors might prescribe medication which contains oestrogen to control its symptoms. This surge of oestrogen might trigger melanin pigment production, bringing about spots which are diffi cult to remove.
3 Dry, patchy skin
Hyaluronic acid in the skin is responsible for absorbing and retaining moisture in the skin. Oestrogen enhances hyaluronic acid production, and the loss of it means that skin is less hydrated.
4 Lines appear
Aside from hyaluronic acid, oestrogen also affects the production of collagen and elastin which form the basic structure of skin. When elastin is depleted, skin becomes looser and settles into the natural folds of the skin, forming wrinkles.
