TLDR Hormone therapy might help improve women's appearance as they age.

The document discusses the role of hormones in age-related aesthetic changes in women, particularly during the postmenopausal period. Declining levels of hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, and melatonin are associated with changes in appearance like weight gain, fat redistribution, skin aging, and hair thinning. Hormone therapies can potentially prevent or reverse these changes. The authors suggest that dermatologists can safely and effectively incorporate various hormone formulations into their treatment strategies for female aesthetic rejuvenation.
