Menopause facial in York

Exopeptide Xpert microneedling for menopausal skin

Menopause is a natural stage in a woman’s life, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, when periods stop and the fertile stage comes to an end. Behind the scenes, levels of hormones such as oestrogen and progesterone fall – and this can have a big impact on the skin.

Many women notice:

  • Increased dryness and sensitivity

  • Loss of firmness and elasticity

  • More pronounced fine lines and wrinkles

  • Changes in pigmentation and redness

  • Skin that suddenly feels “older” or less like it used to

Our Menopause Facial at The York Skin Clinic is specifically designed to support skin through these hormonal changes, using the Mesoestetic Exopeptide Xpert pack alongside microneedling for targeted, regenerative results.

  • The Menopause Facial is a medically led, anti‑ageing facial method created for women at every stage of menopause – peri‑, during and post‑menopause.

    It uses the Mesoestetic Exopeptide Xpert pack, a professional treatment that:

    • Combines exosomes, peptides and innovative active ingredients inspired by regenerative medicine

    • Is designed to redensify, deeply nourish and help reduce skin redness

    • Works on the signs of ageing specific to menopausal skin, helping to restore overall skin quality

    Backed by Dexeus Mujer (experts in women’s health), this protocol is tailored to address the way hormonal change affects the skin – rather than treating menopausal skin like any other age group.

    At The York Skin Clinic, we perform this treatment as a microneedling‑based facial, to enhance penetration of the active ingredients and stimulate your own collagen at the same time

  • This treatment combines:

    • Exosomes – tiny vesicles involved in cell‑to‑cell communication, used here to help support regeneration and repair

    • Peptides – signalling molecules that can help to stimulate collagen and improve firmness and elasticity

    • Synergistic actives – carefully selected ingredients aimed at nourishing, calming and redensifying menopausal skin

    • Microneedling – controlled micro‑channels created in the skin to stimulate collagen and improve delivery of the Exopeptide Xpert formula

    Together, this dual‑action method aims to:

    • Improve density and firmness

    • Support elasticity and structure

    • Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

    • Help soften redness and sensitivity

    • Deeply nourish and comfort skin that feels dry, thin or fragile

    The protocol is designed to deliver visible results from the first session, and to enhance the outcomes of other aesthetic treatments (such as injectables, LED, or peels) when used as part of a wider treatment plan.

    Exopeptide Xpert microneedling for menopausal skin

    Menopause is a natural stage in a woman’s life, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, when periods stop and the fertile stage comes to an end. Behind the scenes, levels of hormones such as oestrogen and progesterone fall – and this can have a big impact on the skin.

    Our Menopause Facial at The York Skin Clinic is specifically designed to support skin through these hormonal changes, using the Mesoestetic Exopeptide Xpert pack alongside microneedling for targeted, regenerative results.

    What is the Menopause Facial (Exopeptide Xpert)?

    The Menopause Facial is a medically led, anti‑ageing facial method created for women at every stage of menopause – peri‑, during and post‑menopause.

    It uses the Mesoestetic Exopeptide Xpert pack, a professional treatment that:

    • Combines exosomes, peptides and innovative active ingredients inspired by regenerative medicine

    • Is designed to redensify, deeply nourish and help reduce skin redness

    • Works on the signs of ageing specific to menopausal skin, helping to restore overall skin quality

    Backed by Dexeus Mujer (experts in women’s health), this protocol is tailored to address the way hormonal change affects the skin – rather than treating menopausal skin like any other age group.

    At The York Skin Clinic, we perform this treatment as a microneedling‑based facial, to enhance penetration of the active ingredients and stimulate your own collagen at the same time.

    How does it work?

    This treatment combines:

    • Exosomes – tiny vesicles involved in cell‑to‑cell communication, used here to help support regeneration and repair

    • Peptides – signalling molecules that can help to stimulate collagen and improve firmness and elasticity

    • Synergistic actives – carefully selected ingredients aimed at nourishing, calming and redensifying menopausal skin

    • Microneedling – controlled micro‑channels created in the skin to stimulate collagen and improve delivery of the Exopeptide Xpert formula

    Who is the Menopause Facial suitable for?

    This facial is specifically designed for:

    • Women in peri‑menopause, menopause or post‑menopause

    • Those noticing changes such as dryness, tightness, loss of firmness, fine lines, redness or dullness

    • Patients who want an evidence‑based, medically led approach to menopausal skin, rather than generic anti‑ageing facials

    You may be a good candidate if:

    • You are generally healthy and can have microneedling

    • You are not pregnant or breastfeeding

    • You are not on certain medications that affect healing (these will be discussed at consultation)

    • You are comfortable with a little downtime (mild redness and sensitivity after treatment)

    If microneedling is not suitable for you, we can discuss alternative menopausal skin treatments, such as gentler facials, Dermalux LED or peel‑based protocols, depending on your skin.

  • 1. Consultation

    We always begin with a thorough consultation where we:

    • Discuss your main concerns – both skin and hormonal changes

    • Review your medical history and medications

    • Assess your skin type, sensitivity and current skincare

    • Decide whether the Menopause Facial is the right choice, or whether to start with something gentler first

    2. Treatment

    On the day of your treatment, you can expect:

    • Cleansing and preparation of the skin

    • Application of numbing cream if needed for comfort

    • Microneedling using a medical‑grade device to create controlled micro‑channels in the skin

    • Application of the Exopeptide Xpert dual‑formula (containing exosomes, peptides and targeted actives) to work in synergy with the microneedling

    The treatment is methodical but comfortable for most patients, and you’ll be guided through every step.

    3. Aftercare

    Immediately after treatment, your skin will typically look:

    • Red, similar to mild to moderate sunburn

    • Warm and slightly tight

    This usually settles over 24–72 hours, depending on your skin and the exact protocol used.

    You’ll receive clear aftercare instructions, which usually include:

    • Avoiding makeup for a set period

    • Avoiding intense heat, saunas and very hot showers

    • Using gentle, non‑irritating skincare and broad‑spectrum SPF

    • Pausing actives like strong acids or retinoids temporarily, if advised

  • his will depend on your individual skin and goals, but as a general guide:

    • Some women notice visible improvements in radiance and comfort after just one session

    • For more significant changes in firmness, texture and overall skin quality, we often recommend a course of treatments, spaced several weeks apart

    We will discuss a realistic treatment plan – including how this facial fits alongside other options such as LED, injectables or laser – at your consultation.

Dermalux

A relaxing but powerful facial using Dermalux LED phototherapy to support:

  • Cellular regeneration and repair

  • Calmer, less inflamed skin

  • Healing in conditions such as acne, rosacea and post‑procedure skin

Often combined with treatment masks (including Environ alginate masks) and massage, this is an excellent no‑downtime facial for overall skin health.

Advanced Anti‑Ageing Facial

An advanced anti‑ageing facial using the Mesoestetic Skin Retin Expert pack to:

  • Stimulate cell renewal

  • Smooth fine lines and uneven texture

  • Brighten and even out skin tone

Can be performed alone for visible results with minimal downtime, or combined with microneedling in suitable patients for deeper rejuvenation.

Detox Facial – deep cleanse, extractions and LED

A deep‑cleansing, decongesting facial ideal for oily, breakout‑prone or dull skin.

Typically includes:

  • Steam and deep cleansing

  • Gentle extractions where appropriate

  • Pure Renewal mask from Mesoestetic

  • Dermalux LED to calm inflammation and support healing

Perfect if your skin feels clogged, congested or in need of a proper reset in a medical setting.

Combining the Menopause Facial with other treatments

Because menopausal skin can be more fragile and reactive, any treatment plan must be carefully thought out. At The York Skin Clinic, we may combine or sequence the Menopause Facial with:

  • Dermalux LED to calm inflammation and support healing

  • Skin boosters or regenerative injectables to address hydration and elasticity from within

  • Gentle chemical peels to improve texture and pigmentation in suitable cases

  • Anti‑wrinkle injections or dermal fillers for specific lines or volume loss, if desired and appropriate

The Exopeptide Xpert method is designed to enhance the effectiveness of other aesthetic treatments, making it a useful addition to a wider ageing‑well strategy.
