3 Med Spa Treatments to Rejuvenate Your Hands
Hands naturally change as we get older, and some of our lifestyle habits don’t help the matter. Here are some of the most obvious ways our hands show age, along with some hand rejuvenation procedures that can help restore them.
Signs of Aging in Hands
- Brown Spots. Brown spots and discoloration make hands look aged. Often exacerbated by sun damage, these “age spots” can make you want to hide your hands.
- Wrinkles. Lines and wrinkles anywhere on the body are a tell-tale sign of aging, especially when it comes to the hands and face.
- Tissue Loss. As we age, we lose some of the tissue in our hands. This creates an unfortunate “bony” appearance, which makes the hands look frail and aged.
- Thin Skin. Along with a loss of plumpness, the skin of our hands can become thinner and more papery-looking as we get older.
- Large Veins. Big, bulging veins are another common sign of aging in the hands. Made more prominent by the receding tissue and thinner skin, oversized veins can make women’s hands look less feminine.
3 Treatments That Can Help
- Dermal Fillers: Injectable fillers like RADIESSE® can help restore plumpness to your hands, which often reduces the appearance of veins and wrinkles.
- Laser Skin Resurfacing: Lasers treatments can stimulate the body’s natural collagen production and increase cell turnover. [pullquote] Laser therapies can be used to restore the youthful look and texture of your hands by smoothing skin and helping to erase age spots. [/pullquote]
- Microdermabrasion: Microdermabrasion removes dead skin cells to reveal a smoother, younger-looking layer of skin beneath.
If you’re thinking about hand rejuvenation, talk to a board certified plastic surgeon about which procedure will work best for you.
