Collagen Loss in Menopause — What's Really Happening & How to Support It

Collagen Loss in Menopause — What's Really Happening & How to Support It

If you'd like the full explanation of collagen decline, read my Menopause Skincare Guide here.

Collagen production decreases rapidly due to lower estrogen — up to 30% is lost in the first 5 years of menopause.

More about this process is outlined in the Menopause & Perimenopause Skincare Guide.

Louise Navarro has spent over 20 years working hands-on with women, supporting their skin, wellbeing and the changes that come with different stages of life. Through this work, she saw first-hand how differently skin can behave during perimenopause, menopause and beyond — and how often women struggled to find skincare that truly understood those changes. She created Botanical Balance to offer a different approach: hormone-aware skincare designed around the needs of changing skin, with gentle, considered formulas and simple rituals that support the woman as well as her skin.
