Skin changes during times of hormonal change are often dismissed as an inevitable part of life and ageing. But what if our skin is actually telling us something more about our health?
In this week’s episode, I’m joined by consultant dermatologist Dr Saj Rajpar @dr.rajpar_dermatologist for a fascinating conversation about hormones, skin health and ageing. We discuss why hormones are so important for collagen, wound healing, hair and inflammation, why some skin conditions can worsen during menopause, and whether skincare alone is ever enough without addressing underlying hormone deficiencies.
We also explore the growing conversation around using estrogen creams on the face and why optimising hormones may be far more important for long term health.
