Our hands are much more likely than any other part of the body to be exposed to adverse factors from the outside. And so, the skin of the hands ages almost at the very first: it becomes thinner, dries up, wrinkles, age spots and pronounced veins appear on it.
Causes of premature aging of the skin of the hands:
- Weather.Sudden temperature changes, scorching sun, ultraviolet light, gusty wind and cold, rain and frost - all this leads to capillary spasm, insufficient blood supply, vasodilation, dryness andthe appearance of age spots.
- Household chemicals.How often do you wash the dishes or the floor without gloves? What type of soap do we choose? Household chemicals, even labeled as safe for the hands, still have a detrimental effect - they destroy the natural lipid layer, which leads to premature drying of the skin.
- Hormonal changes.Hormones are the most unpredictable factor affecting our skin, and the skin of the hands is no exception. Women are more sensitive to it after 45 years, when the hormonal background changes, the production of collagen and lipids decreases, veins appear and wrinkles appear.
- Age.With age, the skin undergoes natural processes of thinning of the fatty layer, dehydration and slowing down of skin renewal.
How can I help my skin? Of course, home procedures, masks and creams still remain, but after 40-45 years they become insufficient, and wrinkles, veins and age spots betray the true age. That is why modern cosmetology offers many effective and safe procedures for hand rejuvenation.
Hand injection rejuvenation
Biorevitalization and mesotherapy are effective procedures not only for the face. They do a great job with the natural aging process of the skin on the hands. Hand rejuvenation with hyaluronic acid, used during the biorevitalization procedure, allows the skin to retain the moisture so necessary for our hands, and vitamin cocktails, individually selected for mesotherapy procedures, promote the production of collagen and elastin, eliminate pigmentation and renew skin cells.
The complex impact of the conduct of such procedures:
- retains moisture in the subcutaneous layers and intercellular space;
- stimulates the synthesis of collagen;
- starts the regeneration of skin cells;
- restores firmness and elasticity;
- brightens the skin;
- prevents the appearance of wrinkles.
Plasmolifting of the hands has a similar effect - with the undoubted advantage that the plasma obtained from the patient's own blood is not rejected by the body at all and does not cause any side reactions.
The additional advantages of hand skin injection procedures are their short rehabilitation period - it does not take long to recover from the injections. In addition, injection techniques (biorevitalization, mesotherapy and plasmolifting) associated with laser rejuvenation significantly improve and prolong the effect.
Important: to achieve a lasting rejuvenating effect, mesotherapy or plasma lifting procedures should be performed in 4-5 sessions with a break once a year. Biorevitalization is carried out in a single procedure every 6-12 months, depending on the initial condition of the skin of the hands.
Another great injection procedure for hand rejuvenation is contouring. This procedure is essential for what is called the "skeleton of the hands" - when the decrease in the volume of subcutaneous fat becomes noticeable in the tendons and protruding veins.
With contour plastics, these lost volumes are replenished with special fillers based on hyaluronic acid. The fillers are injected into the problem areas and create an effect of soft and smooth skin, mask tendons and veins, smooth wrinkles and retain moisture in the skin, keeping it hydrated.
Important: contouring is performed in a single operation every 6 to 12 months, depending on the initial condition of the skin of the hands.

Laser hand rejuvenation
The laser differs from all other anti-aging procedures in cosmetology by its complex effect on the superficial and deep layers of the skin. Already after the first laser hand rejuvenation procedure, the result is noticeable: renewal, regeneration and leveling of skin color, removal of age spots, wrinkles, improvement of turgor, removal of pronounced vessels and veinsprotruding. In addition, already after the rehabilitation period in the following month, an improvement in the quality of the skin is noticeable, due to the physiological production of collagen, which continues after the procedure.
During the photothermal effect on the skin, the laser stimulates all regeneration processes at the cellular level:
- there is an accelerated synthesis of collagen and elastin;
- strengthens microvessels, improves blood supply and hydration of the skin;
- the water-lipid balance is restored;
- melanin synthesis slows down, age spots lighten;
- the protective and barrier functions of the skin are activated.
Hands become more elastic and hydrated, visible irregularities are smoothed out, pigmentation is removed - the effect obtained lasts up to 4-6 months.
Important: The result of laser exposure is more noticeable than other methods of rapid hand rejuvenation, but the recovery period for this procedure is longer and requires more in-depth home care.

Chemical and carbon hand peels
The chemical peel is effective not only for the face, but also for the neck, décolleté or hands. It is the least traumatic and painless procedure of all, but it nevertheless has an excellent anti-aging effect. Regular hand peeling eliminates wrinkles and age spots, unifies the color and texture of the skin, promotes its renewal and regeneration.
Among all the peels used in the clinic, I especially want to note the effectiveness of:- retinoic peel ("yellow"). Retinoids are synthetic analogues of vitamin A, the main "rejuvenating" vitamin in our body. The retinoic peel triggers the processes of deep cell renewal, rejuvenation and removal of wrinkles and blemishes, without injuring the skin at all and without causing unpleasant sensations. By the way, clinics offer a complete retinoic rejuvenation procedure for the face, neck and hands.
- carbon peel, unique in its effect, thanks to the combination of a special carbon gel and a laser. The carbon peel illuminates and unifies the skin, stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, eliminates age spots and restores the lipid balance of the skin.
Peeling procedures are carried out in 4-6 sessions, the frequency of the procedures is determined by the cosmetologist at the reception.
