Menopause is a natural stage in every woman’s life, marking the end of her reproductive years. As your body undergoes significant hormonal changes, you may experience a range of physical and emotional symptoms that can impact your quality of life. While this transition can be challenging, it also presents an opportunity to prioritise your well-being and embrace a new chapter in your life.
Consultant Plastic Surgeon Anca Breahna has many years of experience performing plastic surgery procedures to help women achieve their aesthetic goals.
A menopause makeover is a complex, personalised approach to addressing the various physical challenges that women experience during and after menopause. This journey is designed to help you navigate the changes in your body with confidence and vitality.
Anca understands that each woman’s experience with menopause is unique, and therefore, she takes the time to listen to your concerns, assess your individual needs, and develop a tailored treatment plan that aligns with your goals.
A menopause makeover may include a wide range of surgical and non-surgical treatments, depending on your specific requirements. These treatments can include breast surgery, such as a breast uplift or reduction, to address changes in breast shape and size that often occur during menopause. Body contouring procedures, like a tummy tuck or liposuction, can help reshape and tone areas of the body affected by age-related changes and hormonal shifts.
Vaginal rejuvenation is another component of a menopause makeover. As menopause can lead to vaginal dryness, laxity, and discomfort, Anca offers treatments such as labiaplasty surgery or Desirial injections to help improve sexual function, and enhance intimate well-being.
In addition to surgical procedures, a menopause makeover also focuses on skin health and appearance. Hormonal changes during menopause can cause skin dryness, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity. Anca can recommend a range of skin rejuvenation treatments, including laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and injectable treatments, to combat these effects and restore a more youthful, radiant complexion.
Throughout your menopause makeover journey, Anca works closely with you, offering guidance, support, and expertise every step of the way. She collaborates with other healthcare professionals, such as gynaecologists and nutritionists, to ensure a holistic approach to your care, addressing not only the physical aspects of menopause but also your emotional and psychological well-being.
One of the most significant benefits of a menopause makeover is the tremendous boost in self-confidence it can provide. As you navigate the physical changes that come with menopause, such as sagging breasts, excess skin, or vaginal laxity, it’s common to feel less comfortable or self-assured in your own body. Anca’s expertly tailored treatments can help address these specific concerns, allowing you to rediscover your inner and outer beauty.
Menopause can bring about a range of physical discomforts that can significantly impact your daily life. Vaginal dryness, for example, can cause itching, burning, and pain during intercourse, while urinary incontinence can lead to embarrassing leaks and a constant need to be near a restroom. Pelvic floor weakness can also contribute to a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the vaginal area, which can be incredibly uncomfortable.
Anca offers a variety of treatments, such as vaginal injections that can help alleviate some of the symptoms. By restoring vaginal health, improving lubrication, and strengthening the pelvic floor, these treatments can help you enjoy a more comfortable and confident lifestyle. You’ll be able to engage in physical activities, travel, and enjoy intimate moments without the constant worry or discomfort that menopause symptoms can cause.
Menopause can have a significant impact on your sexual function and intimate relationships. Hormonal changes can lead to decreased libido, vaginal dryness, and even pain during intercourse, which can put a strain on your romantic partnerships. A menopause makeover can help improve these aspects of your life by addressing the physical symptoms that may be interfering with your sexual well-being.
The hormonal changes that occur during menopause can take a significant toll on your skin. You may notice increased dryness, wrinkles, sagging, and a loss of elasticity, all of which can contribute to a feeling of self-consciousness or dissatisfaction with your appearance. Anca can recommend a range of skin rejuvenation treatments that can help combat these effects, revealing a more youthful complexion.
From laser resurfacing treatments that stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture to injectable treatments that smooth wrinkles and restore volume, Anca can customise a plan to address your specific skin concerns. By improving your skin health and appearance, you’ll not only look better but also feel more confident and self-assured. You may find yourself wearing less makeup, feeling more comfortable in your own skin, and embracing the natural beauty that shines from within.
As you age, it’s natural to want to maintain a more youthful appearance. A menopause makeover can help you achieve this goal through a combination of surgical and non-surgical treatments that target the signs of ageing. Procedures such as a facelift, neck lift, or eyelid surgery can address sagging skin and wrinkles, helping to restore a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
Body contouring treatments, like a tummy tuck or arm lift, can help reshape and tone areas of the body that may have been affected by age-related changes or weight fluctuations. By addressing these concerns, you can feel more confident and comfortable in your clothing, as well as in your own skin. Maintaining a more youthful look can also have a positive impact on your mental and emotional well-being, helping you feel more energised, confident, and ready to embrace the next chapter of your life.
For some women, the idea of surgery may be daunting or simply not an option due to personal preferences or medical reasons. Anca understands these concerns and offers a range of non-invasive or minimally invasive treatments that can still provide significant benefits without the need for extensive downtime or recovery.
Non-invasive options like injectable treatments can target specific concerns, such as wrinkles, skin laxity, or vaginal dryness, with minimal discomfort and little to no downtime. These treatments can be an excellent choice for women who want to see improvements in their appearance or physical comfort without the commitment of surgery.
Additionally, non-invasive treatments can be used to complement and enhance the results of surgical procedures, providing a more complex and personalised approach to your menopause makeover. Anca will work closely with you to determine the best combination of treatments to help you achieve your desired outcomes.
One of the most important aspects of Anca’s approach to menopause care is her commitment to treating the whole person, not just the physical symptoms. She recognises that menopause can have a profound impact on your emotional and psychological well-being, and she is dedicated to providing comprehensive care and support throughout your journey.
Anca takes the time to listen to your concerns, understand your unique challenges, and develop a treatment plan that addresses your overall well-being.
