Women’s Skin throughout Lifetime

Download Special Issue

The hormonal status is modulated during women’s lifetime. Puberty, pregnancy, ovarian cycle, menopause, hormonal treatments, and hormonal disruptors stem as much from intrinsic chronobiology as from social status. Some of the induced changes range from discrete skin physical impairments to dermocosmetic troubles and typical pathological disorders.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

Pubertal greasy skin
Menstrual acne
Pregnancy skin disorders
Climacteric aging
Female hair loss
Dry skin
Viscoelastic properties of skin
Effects of hormone replacement therapy
Impact of hormonal disruptors
Skin wrinkles
Pigmentary changes
