WHAT HAPPENS: “As women get older hormonal changes can lead to dry, thin and sagging skin,” Issachar warns. Post-menopausal skin can change rapidly – in the first five years alone the skin loses up to 30 per cent of its collagen.

DEFENCE:
Mature women need to address the four essential needs of sagging skin – lifting, firming, smoothing and nourishing. Incorporating DIY facial massage can also help.
