Our hands are much more likely to be exposed to harmful effects from outside any other part of the body. Therefore, the skin of the hands almost ages: it becomes thinner, drier, wrinkles, age spots and pronounced veins appear on it.
Causes of premature hand skin aging:
- Weather.Sudden changes in temperature, scorching sun, ultraviolet light, blowing wind and cold, rain and frost - all lead to capillary spasm, decreased blood supply, vasodilation, dryness and the appearance of age spots.
- Household chemicals.How often do we wash dishes or floors without gloves? What kind of soap do we choose? Household chemicals, even classified as safe for hands, still have a detrimental effect - destroying the natural lipid layer, leading to premature dehydration of the skin.
- Hormonal changes.Hormones are the most unpredictable factors that affect our skin, and the hand skin is no exception. Women are most susceptible to this after 45 years, when the hormonal background changes, collagen and lipid production decreases, veins appear and wrinkles appear.
- Disease.As you age, your skin goes through natural processes: the fat layer becomes thinner, dries out, and skin regeneration slows down.
How can I help my skin? Of course, home procedures, masks and creams always remain, but after 40-45 years they become inadequate, wrinkles, blood vessels and aging spots betray the real age. That is why modern cosmetology offers a number of effective and safe procedures for hand rejuvenation.
Injection injection of the hands
Biorevitalization and mesotherapy are procedures that do not only affect the face. They do an excellent job with the natural aging process of the skin of the hand. Rejuvenating hands with hyaluronic acid, used in the biorevitalization process, allows the skin to retain the moisture it needs for our hands, vitamin cocktails individually selected for mesotherapy procedures promote collagen and elastin production, eliminate pigmentation and renew skin cells.
The complex effect of such procedures is:
- retains moisture in the subcutaneous layers and in the space between cells;
- stimulates collagen synthesis;
- begins to regenerate skin cells;
- restores strength and flexibility;
- brightens the skin;
- prevents the appearance of wrinkles.
Plasma lifting of the hands has a similar effect - with the indisputable advantage that the plasma obtained from the patient's own blood is not rejected by the body at all and does not cause side effects.
Additional benefits of hand skin injection procedures are in the short rehabilitation period: it does not take much time to recover from the injections. In addition, injection techniques (biorevitalization, mesotherapy and plasmolifting) in combination with laser rejuvenation significantly enhance and prolong the effect.
Important: in order to achieve a lasting effect of rejuvenation, mesotherapy or plasma lifting procedures should be performed 4-5 times, with a break of once a year. Biorevitalization is performed as a single procedure every 6-12 months, depending on the initial condition of the hand skin.
Another great injection procedure for hand rejuvenation is contouring. This procedure is essential for the so-called "hand skeleton" - when a decrease in the volume of fat under the skin becomes noticeable tendons and protruding veins.
With contour plastics, these lost amounts are replaced with special hyaluronic acid-based fillers. Fillers are injected into problem areas to create soft, smooth skin, hide tendons and blood vessels, smooth wrinkles and retain skin moisture while hydrating.
Important: contouring is performed as a single procedure every 6-12 months, depending on the initial condition of the hand skin.

Laser rejuvenation of hands
The laser differs from all other anti-aging methods used in cosmetology in that it has a complex effect on the superficial and deep layers of the skin. Already after the first laser hand rejuvenation procedure, the result is noticeable: skin color renewal, regeneration and equalization, removal of aging spots, wrinkles, repair of turgor, removal of pronounced blood vessels and protruding veins. In addition, the improvement in skin quality due to the physiological production of collagen, which continues after the procedure, can be noticed even after the rehabilitation period during the following month.
During the photothermal action on the skin, the laser stimulates all regeneration processes at the cellular level:
- has accelerated synthesis of collagen and elastin;
- strengthens micro-blood, improves blood supply and skin hydration;
- water-lipid balance is restored;
- melanin synthesis slows down, age spots fade;
- the protective and barrier functions of the skin are activated.
The hands become more flexible and moisturized, the visible irregularities are smoothed out, the pigmentation disappears - the effect achieved lasts for 4-6 months.
Important: The result of laser exposure is more pronounced than other methods of rapid hand rejuvenation, but the recovery time for this procedure requires longer and more thorough home care.

Chemical and carbon peeling
Chemical peels are effective not only on the face but also on the neck, décolleté or hands. It is the least traumatic and painless procedure of all, but it still has an excellent anti-aging effect. Regular hand peeling removes wrinkles, aging spots, evens out skin color and texture, and promotes its renewal and regeneration.
Of the exfoliations used in clinics, I would like to note in particular the effectiveness of:- retinoin ("yellow") exfoliation. Retinoids are synthetic analogues of vitamin A, the main "rejuvenating" vitamins in our body. Retinoic exfoliation initiates the process of deep cell renewal, rejuvenation, and elimination of wrinkles and blemishes while not damaging the skin or causing discomfort at all. By the way, clinics offer a comprehensive procedure for retinoic rejuvenation of the face, neck and hands.
- carbon peeling, in its unique effect, thanks to a special combination of carbon gel and laser. Exfoliation brightens and evens out the skin, stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, removes aging spots and restores the skin’s lipid balance.
Exfoliation procedures are performed 4-6 times, the frequency of the procedures is determined by the beautician at the reception.
