Hand Rejuvenation

Hand Rejuvenation in Sugar Land, Katy, and Houston, Texas

While your face may look youthful, a tell-tale sign of aging are the hands. If you display age spots or lines on the hands, it may give away your true age, even if you’ve smoothed your face of lines and wrinkles. In the skin care field, hand rejuvenation is a generic term that covers various treatments, all meant to address the signs of aging on the hands. Hand rejuvenation is popular today, as it encompasses a full-body approach to maintaining a more youthful appearance. It is important to consider all areas of the body, as treating only one area can make other non-treated areas more noticeable.

Hand rejuvenation treatments can cover the following therapies:

Injection of a dermal filler/biostimulator for increasing volume.
Laser ablation treatments to reduce the look of wrinkles and brown spots.
Chemical peels to smooth the texture of the skin on the hands.
Intense pulsed light or IPL therapy to support collagen regrowth and treat dark spots on the hands.

During a hand rejuvenation consultation, your medical provider will give you an idea of the results to expect and will suggest the treatments that work out the best for your skin texture and budget. While some hand rejuvenation treatments can be done together, other treatments are best done individually, or over several sessions. Most hand rejuvenation treatments are minimally invasive and require little downtime.

What are the obvious signs that the hands need rejuvenation?

How can dermal fillers be used to improve the looks of the hands?

Can brown spots or wrinkles on the hands be smoothed over using laser therapy?

Yes. The use of laser skin resurfacing can smooth hands that have been damaged by overexposure to the sun or by photo-aging from other UV sources. Co2 and/or picosecond lasersor intense pulsed light (IPL) devices can be used to remove the outer skin. In turn, fractional lasers or non-ablative skin resurfacing devices, such as IPL, can generate heat in the deep tissues to remove winkles or brown spots on hands.

Can I rejuvenate the hands with chemical peels or microdermabrasion treatments?

Yes. Chemical peels and microdermabrasion are not only used for the facial area, they can be used on the hands. For example, you can use a chemical peel on the hands to slough off the top surface layers of skin to reveal fresher looking, more youthful hands. Chemical peels are often used to treat dark spots on the hands. Alternatively, microdermabrasion can be used to abrade dead skin from the hands and improve the appearance of hands that display hyperpigmentation.

These treatments may include laser treatments, IPL skin care, and injections of dermal fillers.
