What it is
Hands often give away age before the face does. The back of the hand hollows, tendons and veins stand out, and brown marks appear. The skin there is thin and heavily exposed to the sun.
Why it happens
- The loss of fatty tissue on the back of the hand
- The thinning of the skin with age
- Daily sun exposure, rarely protected
- Housework and cold, which damage the skin
What we can offer
Hyaluronic acid
Fills the back of the hand to soften the relief of tendons and veins.
Calcium hydroxyapatite
Adds volume and stimulates collagen production on the back of the hand.
Mesotherapy
Improves the quality and hydration of thin skin.
Skin booster
Hydrates the skin on the back of the hand.
Polynucleotides
Skin biostimulation, for elasticity and texture.
What aesthetic medicine cannot do
Brown marks on the hands are treated separately from volume, and not all of them clear. Very thin skin limits how much product can be injected without it showing. The result usually lasts less time than on the face, because the hands are constantly moving.
Frequently asked questions
Does it hurt?
The back of the hand is not a very sensitive area. The injection is usually done with a cannula, with limited discomfort.
How long does the result last?
Usually 9 to 12 months, sometimes less, because the hands are in constant use.
Can the marks be treated at the same time?
The two are treated separately, at different sessions. The order is decided at the consultation.
