Dermatologist: Best Ingredients for Menopausal Skin (Improve Elasticity)

In this video, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Dray explains how menopause affects skin elasticity and reviews the key skincare ingredients that actually have evidence for supporting mature skin. As estrogen levels decline, the skin can lose collagen, leading to reduced firmness, thinning, dryness, and more visible fine lines. Dr. Dray breaks down what happens to the skin during menopause, what skin elasticity really means, and which ingredients can help improve the appearance of firmness and texture. This video focuses on evidence-based skincare, realistic expectations, and simple routines that support healthy skin over time.
