Our hands are constantly exposed to environmental factors, sunlight, and daily wear and tear, making them prone to visible signs of aging. In fact, our hands are one of the areas that reveal our age the most. Common signs of aging hands include thinning skin, loss of volume, prominent veins, age spots, wrinkles, and dryness. These changes can make the hands appear older than they truly are. Fortunately, there are various treatments available to rejuvenate the appearance of the hands and restore a more youthful look.
Why Hand Rejuvenation?
Hand Rejuvenation Procedures
The aim of hand rejuvenation is to replace the decreased subcutaneous tissue on the back of the hand, to increase the quality of the thinned and worn skin and to eliminate the spots on the skin. In order to plump up the subcutaneous tissue, fat and stem cell injections and filler applications can be made on the back of the hand. Pure hyaluronic acid and PRP applications are made to improve skin quality and moisturize it. Skin spots can be removed by chemical peeling or abrasion procedures. In our clinic, we offer:
Dermal Fillers: Injectable dermal fillers can be used to restore volume and plumpness to the hands, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and prominent veins.
Hand Mesotherapy: A non-invasive cosmetic procedure that involves injecting a customized blend of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and hyaluronic acid into the skin of the hands. The products are selected according to the patient’s complaints and needs. Typically, a series of sessions are recommended, and are applied at intervals of 1-2 weeks.
In addition to treatments, proper hand care is essential for maintaining the results of hand
rejuvenation. Regular use of moisturizers, sunscreen, and protective gloves can help protect the
hands from further damage and keep them looking youthful.
It’s important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional, like Dr. Baygöl, to discuss your
individual concerns, goals, and potential treatment options for hand rejuvenation. She can provide
personalized advice and guide you through the process to achieve optimal results.
