MENOPAUSAL SKIN Get that glow back!
Many clients going through menopause experience a deterioration in their skin because of a decline in their bodies’ production of oestrogen and progesterone. You can help these clients bring the glow back to their skin with products and services specifically designed to address the symptoms that occur during and after menopause.

THE aesthetic trends YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
Treatments that boost collagen and a focus on holistic wellness are among the trends shaping the aesthetics industry, according to the New Next by Galderma industry report.

PRESERVING COLLAGEN FOR PLUMPER, FULLER SKIN
Dermalogica’s new Pro-Collagen Banking Serum is packed with amino acids – the building blocks of collagen – this formula gets key ingredients where your skin needs them, and goes beyond plumping to help preserve the collagen your skin has now. The result: more resilient, visibly plumper, and more luminous skin, along with a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles into the future.
