Hand Rejuvenation
Cosmetic hand rejuvenation focuses on restoring the youthful appearance of hands by addressing common issues like thinning skin, volume loss, wrinkles, age spots, and sun damage. Here’s an overview of treatment options:
Addressing Volume Loss
Dermal Fillers
- Fillers used: Hyaluronic acid (e.g., Restylane, Juvederm) or longer-lasting options like Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite).
- How it works: Adds volume to plump the skin and hide visible veins and tendons.
- Results: Immediate with effects lasting 6–18 months, depending on the filler.
Treating Wrinkles and Crepey Skin
Laser Skin Resurfacing
- Types: Fractional CO2 or Erbium laser.
- Benefits: Stimulates collagen production to improve skin texture and firmness.
- Downtime: Varies from a few days to a week.
Microneedling
- How it works: Creates micro-injuries to trigger collagen and elastin production.
- Enhancement: Often combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for better results.
Reducing Age Spots and Pigmentation
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
- How it works: Targets pigmented areas using light energy.
- Results: Fades age spots, sun spots, and uneven skin tone over several sessions.
Cryotherapy
- Use: Freezing small age spots with liquid nitrogen to remove them.
- Ideal for: Isolated spots.
Topical Treatments
- Ingredients: Retinoids, hydroquinone, or vitamin C.
- Effectiveness: Gradual improvement with consistent use.
