• Do you know that one of the first places on our body that begins to show signs of aging is our hands, frequently neglected but the most noticeable?
  • Did you know there are a surprising number of options for hand rejuvenation, both surgical and non-surgical?
  • Do you know If you want to guess someone’s age, you only have to look at their hands?
  • Did you know hand aging worries a person a lot because signs are apparent with wrinkles, loss of volume, loss of elasticity, increased visibility of veins, and pigmentation?

When discussing ageless beauty, the face and neck first address the concerns contributing to aging; however, hands are underestimated by the body, which can be most noticeable if untreated. It has been said that untreated aging of the hands can expose rejuvenation that has occurred on the face and neck. Thus, hand rejuvenation treatment should be added to your beauty regime to achieve complete youthful rejuvenation.

Dr. Karishma Kagodu, MS, M CH., a board-certified plastic surgeon and head of Dr. Karishma Aesthetics in Bangalore, who has a practice also in Kinder Women’s Hospital, Whitefield Bangalore, says, “As we age, our concerns are not just limited to addressing the facial signs of aging or how our body contour or silhouette looks. But close attention is necessary to address the most apparent signs of aging, as the skin on our hands breaks down first. So, if you wish to grab the attention at a cocktail party, hand rejuvenation treatment should be considered, as most people would look at your hand first if your face hides your biological age. 

What is Hand Rejuvenation?

Hand rejuvenation is a cosmetic procedure to improve the actinic damage of hands to meet the youthful goal of your skin profile. Hand rejuvenation can include a variety or combination of treatments ranging from laser resurfacing to fat grafting and injectable fillers to soften the appearance of the tops of hands. Hand rejuvenation is requested most for a youthful appearance transformation, as hands bear a significant load and environmental exposure because of the high functionality in regular work. Thus, it is likely to show signs of aging on the hands first, so cosmetic treatment is the option requested most to combat the aging signs and notifications.

What Are The Benefits of Hand Rejuvenation?

  • Hand rejuvenation restores lost volume and stimulate collagen production to address wrinkles on the hands.
  • Minimize pigmentation, i.e., sun or age spots, as Lasers, like Fraxel or IPL, or chemical peels, are best for improving the skin texture of your hands.
  • Hand rejuvenation addresses the concerns of the skeletal appearance of hands that can cause the hand appearance with noticeable large veins, tendons, and bones.
  • The non-surgical options in the medical cosmetic world offer a youthful hand appearance and help the hands keep up with your face.

The most sought-after non-surgical options for hand rejuvenation in Bangalore are detailed below:

  1. Injectable Fillers: Fillers like Restylane Lyft® and Radiesse® are the only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers used to improve the lost volume of your hands due to aging. Fillers significantly diminish the appearance of prominent veins and blood vessels while providing youthful volume. Radiesse filler has the added benefit of contributing to collagen proliferation to decrease wrinkled skin and soften the appearance of the tops of hands.
  2. Chemical peels: Chemical peels can work wonders for lightening the dark spots on hands using a chemical solution. Chemical peels effectively slough off the top superficial layers of skin to improve the tone and texture of the skin on the hands and reveal fresher, younger-looking skin beneath. Different types of peels are available in the cosmetic treatment world, such as light or superficial, medium-depth, and deep chemical peels. The specific one is chosen based on your hyperpigmentation status. A chemical peel that contains Trichloroacetic, commonly knowns as TCA, with a milder agent called AHA (Alpha Hydroxy acid) is recommended for treating the hands, elbows, and knees to ensure a soft and silky result.
  3. Laser skin resurfacing: Laser skin resurfacing is a fantastic treatment for hyperpigmentation present on the back of your hands. Laser skin resurfacing is specifically designed to remove superficial to moderately deep wrinkles on the face, hands, neck, and chest, helps you improve your hands’ texture and tone, and addresses the damage caused by harmful UVA and UVB. Moreover, Fraxel or IPL is very effective for pigmentation, says Dr. Karishma Kagodu.
