Hand rejuvenation treatment is a non-surgical aesthetic procedure designed to return youthful appearance to your hands.
Your hands are susceptible to aging even faster than your face. That’s because the skin on the back of the hands is much thinner than the skin on your face. When collagen starts to break down, which is a normal process of aging, your hands quickly become wrinkly, and show bulging veins and tendons.
So, if you are noticing wrinkles and fine lines, age spots or thinning dehydrated skin on the back of your hands, hand-rejuvenation treatments may be your solution.
There are several types of hand rejuvenation treatments, which are chosen according to your concerns and aesthetic goals. They include:
You might be a good candidate for these treatments if you have wrinkles on your hands and your veins and tendons are noticeable. Also, you may benefit from this treatment if age and sun spots are starting to appear on the back of your hands.
To be a good candidate for hand rejuvenation treatment you need to be in a good overall health and have realistic expectations from the procedure.
Contraindications for hand rejuvenation treatment include pregnancy, breastfeeding and certain allergies.
Hand rejuvenation treatments are effective non-surgical procedures that significantly rejuvenate the skin on the back of your hands. They make your hands plumper, and provide even skin texture and tone on your hands skin. They are minimally invasive and don’t require long recovery.
Hand rejuvenation treatment can last between 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the type of treatment, your concerns and expected results.
Topical numbing cream is typically used.
Hand rejuvenation treatments are minimally invasive non-surgical procedures that carry minimal risks, including:
Some possible risks of laser hand rejuvenation treatment include:
The duration of the results depends on the type of the treatment.
Results of mild chemical peel for hand rejuvenation can last for up to 2 months.

Results of laser therapy for hand rejuvenation can last for years after completed treatment cycle.
To prolong the results of hand rejuvenation treatment, you need to pay a special attention to regular skin care and use high SPF on the back of your skin.
The price of hand rejuvenation treatments depends on the type of procedure, your concerns and expected results.
Before the procedure, you need to have a thorough consultation with Dr. Dragana Spica. She will ask you about your medical history and explain all the details of the procedure. During the examination, Dr. Spica will evaluate the skin on your hands to determine which hand rejuvenation treatment type would be the best in your case.
Dr. Spica will advise you to stop taking certain vitamins, supplements and blood-thinning medications like Aspirin.
On the day of your hand rejuvenation treatment, Dr. Dragana Spica will go through the details again.
Your treatment area is cleaned and a topical numbing cream is applied to it.
According to your treatment plan, Dr. Spica performs the procedure.
For laser therapy, Dr. Spica uses a handheld laser applicator to emit the laser energy to your treatment area.
For dermal fillers, Dr. Spica carefully injects them into the back of your hands.
For chemical peels, Dr. Spica applies the proper chemical peel to your hands and after a certain time removes the solution.
When the procedure is finished, you can go home right away.
Hand rejuvenation treatment is generally well tolerated because of topical numbing cream.
The duration of hand rejuvenation treatment recovery period depends on the type of the procedure.
Downtime after dermal fillers is minimal. Generally, most patients return to their normal daily activities the same day.
After chemical peel for hand rejuvenation, the downtime lasts for 10 days. During that time the superficial layer of your skin peels off and the redness slowly resolves. During recovery, you should avoid direct sun exposure and apply appropriate moisturizers.
Laser therapy for hand rejuvenation may require a longer downtime. It may last between 3 to 10 days. During that time, you should avoid direct sun exposure, apply cold packs to reduce swelling and use mild skin moisturizers.
You should pay attention to the presence of bruising and swelling. Inform Dr. Spica if you experience extensive swelling or pain, or if you develop a fever.
