Menopause: How to Keep Your Face and Body Youthful – What You Need to Know About Modern Treatments

The physical changes that occur before and during menopause deeply affect every woman’s confidence and mood. Today, with the support of specialists, we can refresh our appearance and maintain a youthful glow—fostering a renewed mindset and a stronger sense of self.

A Change That Shouldn’t Scare You

Menopause is undoubtedly a major milestone in every woman’s life. Hormonal fluctuations trigger a cascade of changes that impact both appearance and well-being. The gradual decrease of estrogen and progesterone affects skin quality, leading to dullness, dryness, sagging, and the appearance of wrinkles.

Changes in the Skin and Body

Over time, collagen and elastin—proteins that keep the skin firm—begin to decrease noticeably. Studies show that collagen levels can drop by up to 30% within the first five years of menopause, and continue to decline by 2% annually. This leads to the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging not just on the face, but also on the neck, décolleté, and body.
At the same time, fat distribution changes, often accumulating in the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, affecting overall aesthetics. Elevated androgen levels may also result in hair thinning, oiliness, acne, and excessive hair growth.

Psychological Impact and Self-Esteem

These physical changes can take a toll on a woman’s mental health. Many report feeling a loss of femininity, negatively affecting their self-confidence and sense of well-being. The perception that their appearance is changing can lead to feelings of insecurity, anxiety, or even social withdrawal.

Modern Aesthetic Medicine Solutions for the Face

Dermatologist Dr. Antonis Seretis, scientific associate at SYMMETRIA®, explains: “With the rapid advancement of technology, aesthetic medicine—both invasive and non-invasive—is now the most popular option for facial rejuvenation. Today, we use cutting-edge techniques to address the signs of aging during menopause, achieving remarkable results safely, affordably, and with no downtime.”

After a personalized assessment, the most suitable protocol is selected to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, restore lost volume, and tighten the skin. Injectable fillers such as hyaluronic acid help restore volume and soften wrinkles. Modern techniques like mesotherapy, radiofrequency, and smart lasers boost collagen production and improve skin texture, offering immediate visible results.

Advanced technologies such as HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound), fractional plasma, RF radiofrequencies, and absorbable threads help lift and redefine the facial contour. Mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid, vitamins, peptides, and antioxidants delivers deep hydration and radiance. Autologous PRF mesotherapy uses the patient’s own growth factors for skin regeneration. For those who prefer non-injectable options, protocols using plant stem cells, Coolifting™, PRX-T33™, and Plasma Shower offer skin rejuvenation and a healthy glow.

Body Treatments

Popular protocols target fat reduction and body contouring through fat cell destruction. Skin tightening is achieved using treatments that improve circulation and skin texture.

The Revolution in Vaginal Rejuvenation

Vaginal rejuvenation is ideal for new mothers experiencing vaginal laxity or dryness, especially during breastfeeding. It’s also beneficial for women aged 40 to 65 who suffer from overactive bladder, frequent nighttime urination, recurrent infections, or vaginal discomfort during menopause. THERMIva® radiofrequency treatment delivers excellent results in these cases.

Today, women have access to a wide array of vaginal rejuvenation treatments—both surgical and non-surgical. Non-surgical options provide a powerful, non-invasive alternative using radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production and tissue regeneration. THERMIva®, FDA-approved in the U.S., has been safely used for over a decade. Each session lasts under 30 minutes and offers immediate results.

Professor of Obstetrics and Genetics and SYMMETRIA® scientific associate Dr. Petros Nikolaidis shares: “THERMIva®, which I’ve been using since 2017, is a non-surgical, painless in-office treatment that requires no anesthesia or downtime. Patients return immediately to normal activities. We recommend three sessions, 20–30 days apart. It’s so safe it can even be done six weeks postpartum. Many women report feeling a difference from the very first session and often say: ‘Doctor, you’ve changed my life.’”

Conclusion

Menopause may bring changes, but it also opens the door to new possibilities that help preserve youthfulness and confidence. With the right information and medical support, you can renew your face and body—embracing each phase of life with strength, beauty, and joy. Youthfulness is not about age. It’s a choice.
