For Hand Rejuvenation, Dermal Fillers

  • by

Would it surprise you to learn that our bodies are just as prone to aging symptoms as our faces?

The majority of people start noticing sunspots and sun damage around their late 30s. This is a result of environmental irritants that hasten the aging of the hands.

Both cosmetic laser technicians and medical doctors can address these aging symptoms thanks to new hand rejuvenation treatments. Currently, the hands are being rejuvenated using the same cosmetic procedures that are utilized to remove sunspots and restore lost collagen in the face.

Find out how the hand rejuvenation issue can be handled by the medical aesthetics sector!

 

Why Hand Renewal?

The hands are just as vital for skin care as the face, which is why most beauty enthusiasts focus on it. Due to factors including regular hand washing, exposure to the sun when driving, and anti-microbial treatments, the hands are more likely to exhibit signs of aging. Ninety percent of the aging-related changes that appear on the hands are brought on by UV exposure.

Volume loss is another aspect that plays a role. “Skeleton hands” appear when the bones on the back of the hand protrude, the tendons become more visible, and the veins in the hands become more pronounced.

There are numerous approaches to dealing with hand aging, which is good news. Cosmetic lasers are one tool employed by skin care professionals. Precise quantities of visible light are used in procedures like IPL photo facials to effectively treat pigmentation and sun-damaged skin.

A well-qualified cosmetic laser operator would realize that fair-skinned patients with dark spots are excellent for an IPL treatment using their understanding of the Fitzpatrick scale and laser physics. Some lasers may detect the black pigment in addition to the sunspots on darker people. Inflammation or burning may result from this.

 

The Filler Remedy

Dermal fillers are an unexpected method to restore volume loss in the hands! Injectable filler improves the dermal layer of the skin by volumizing and stimulating collagen. The substance is injected beneath the skin’s surface in the backs of the hands during a hand filler procedure, replacing volume so that tendons and veins are no longer obvious.

Hyaluronic acid, a chemical that naturally occurs in the skin, is used to make facial fillers like Juvéderm, Restylane, and Restylane Lyft. The dermal collagen is strengthened and the look of fine wrinkles is improved by hand fillers.

Fillers for hand wrinkles are applied in various ways by different medical professionals. While some nurses and doctors administer numerous little injections between the tendons, others administer a single large injection in the middle of the hand and then transport the filler to the appropriate location beneath the skin.

Hand veins may occasionally be too obvious to be adequately addressed with fillers. A medical expert can use sclerotherapy to eliminate the vein rather than fill it up. Typically, this comes after the first step in the hand rejuvenation procedure.
