Hormones and Skin Health

Bioidentical hormone therapy has the power to reduce signs of aging that show on the skin by helping boost collagen production in the body. Collagen is the major player in skin elasticity and wrinkle formation is affected by your body's ability to produce and maintain your collagen structure. This is regulated by your hormones - in balance - estradiol, an estrogen hormone, progesterone, and testosterone (especially in men!).

As we age, production of the hormones estradiol change and progesterone and testosterone gradually decrease. Hormonal imbalance causes a reduction in collagen production, which can lead to decreased skin elasticity therefore causing wrinkles. Obviously the sooner BHRT is implemented, the better maintained is the skin's youthful architecture !

As the body’s largest organ, the skin shows signs of hormonal distress and imbalance just like all other organs and body systems. Balancing hormones with bioidentical hormone therapy can reduce signs of aging and improve physical skin appearance.

Instead of focusing on treating signs of aging only from the outside, patients can utilize bioidentical hormone therapy to help promote beauty from the inside out. Once damage is established, then this is the time and place for Botox, Collagen fillers, Laser treatments, and other cosmetic procedures to help soften the passage of time.

Also, remembering to drink enough water, taking supplements, and eating a diet rich in “good fats” like omega-3’s and omega-6’s will help prevent signs of aging and wrinkles.
