Menopausal Skin Changes? Here’s How LED Therapy Can Help

 

Written by an independant, certified dermatologist 

 

Thinner skin. Sudden sagging. Dryness that no cream seems to fix.
If you’re in your 40s or 50s and your skin feels like it’s changing overnight - it’s not your imagination. It’s menopause.

And while hormonal shifts are inevitable, the visible signs don’t have to be. Clinically backed LED light therapy - especially Red, Near-Infrared, and Deep Near-Infrared - can help you support collagen, soothe sensitivity, and regain that lit-from-within glow.

Let’s break down what’s happening - and how light can help.


What Happens to Skin During Perimenopause and Menopause?

Starting as early as your late 30s, estrogen levels begin to decline. This affects your skin in big ways:

  • Up to 30% collagen loss in the first 5 years after menopause
  • Thinner, more fragile skinIncreased sensitivity and redness
  • Dryness, dullness, and slower healing
  • Sagging around the jawline and neck

Even if you’ve always had resilient skin, menopause can shift everything. But the right kind of support - like LED therapy - can help rebuild what’s been lost.


How Red & Infrared Light Work on Menopausal Skin

The DermaGlow V2 mask uses 168 medical-grade LEDs, placed just 0.5–1cm from the skin for maximum absorption. It includes 9 clinically backed LED modes, each targeting a different skin concern.

Here’s how the most relevant ones help with hormonal skin changes:

🔴 Red Light (640nm)

Your anti-wrinkle hero. Red light penetrates to the dermis to stimulate collagen, smooth fine lines, and restore elasticity - ideal for combating menopause-related sagging.

🌫 Near-Infrared (840nm)

Goes even deeper to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. It helps calm rosacea, eczema, and sensitive menopausal skin.

💎 Deep Near-Infrared (1072nm)

The most powerful wavelength in the mask. Clinically shown to stimulate fibroblasts - the cells responsible for collagen and elastin. It strengthens skin at a structural level and relieves muscle tension (hello, jawline!).


Other LED Modes for Hormonal Skin Support

  • Blue (415nm): Clears hormonal acne by targeting bacteria
  • Green (525nm): Calms inflamed capillaries, reduces redness
  • Purple (405nm): Combines red and blue to fight blemishes & improve texture
  • Yellow (590nm): Soothes irritation and reveals brighter skin (our founder’s favourite!)
  • White (600nm): Aids in cell regeneration and rosacea/eczema repair
  • Cyan (500nm): Clears congestion while evening out tone


Why It’s So Effective for Women Over 40

✅ The DermaGlow V2 sits just 0.5–1cm from your face and neck for faster, deeper results

✅ Backed by real results from women just like you:

Final Thoughts: Light at the End of the Hormonal Tunnel

You can’t stop menopause - but you can give your skin the tools it needs to adapt, repair, and thrive.

LED therapy doesn’t just treat the surface - it reactivates your skin’s natural renewal process. And when collagen, elastin, and circulation start flowing again? You see (and feel) the difference.
