The menopausal skin is a multifaceted skin condition that exhibits a wide range of outward changes to its appearance and can present as a wide range of skin conditions with both epidermal and dermal localization.

If we totalled the skin conditions, and disorders commonly found in a menopausal skin, we would learn that seven out of 10 skin conditions are epidermal.

This means it’s possible that by practicing the Corneotherapy methodology of treating the epidermis first, you can make a difference to these skin conditions, providing you understand the cells and systems affected.
