Fillers for Hand Rejuvenation

ARE YOUR HANDS GIVING AWAY YOUR AGE?

When determining a person's true age, it's often their hands rather than their faces that reveal the most. Hands are frequently overlooked in skincare regimens, yet they can be a clear indicator of one's age.

As we age, our elastin and collagen production naturally decreases, and this causes our hands to become thinner. This natural aging process leads to increased skin laxity and visibility of the underlying bone structure, revealing the tendons and veins underneath. Your hands may also start to develop a sunken, wrinkled, or bony-looking appearance.

Dermal fillers offer a solution to rejuvenate aging hands by replenishing lost volume to enhance and reverse the signs of aging in your hands.

Age spots may also develop as a result of aging and prolonged sun exposure, and laser treatments can also be one of the many ways to manage them.

What are Hand Fillers?

Hand fillers are a non-surgical aesthetic treatment designed to rejuvenate our hands by replenishing lost volume, enhancing skin texture, and reducing the telltale signs of aging. These fillers typically consist of compounds like hyaluronic acid, such as Restylane®, or collagen biostimulators, like Radiesse®.

By reintroducing volume to the back of the hands, hand fillers work to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and diminish the prominence of veins and tendons for radiant, youthful-looking hands.

This minimally-invasive procedure offers the advantage of minimal downtime, making it a favoured choice among those seeking to improve the overall look of their hands. The results of hand fillers can endure for approximately 12 to 18 months, varying based on the specific type of filler used — book a consultation with our aesthetic doctor here to determine the most suitable treatment for your needs.

While hand fillers are not permanent, they offer a non-surgical and effective way to rejuvenate the hands, and their minimal downtime and recovery process makes them a popular choice for individuals seeking improvements in their hand’s appearance.

A topical numbing cream will be applied prior to a hand filler treatment to ensure that the treatment is comfortable for you. Most of our patients describe the sensation as a brief stinging, or pinching feeling as the needle is inserted.

Hand fillers typically involve minimal to no downtime, and patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment.

As with other injectable treatments, mild side effects such as swelling at the injection site, minor bruising or temporary redness may occur, but these effects are temporarily and will subside within a couple of days.
