4 Popular Reasons to Consider Hand Rejuvenation
Award-winning surgeon Dr. Gordon Sasaki and our team at Sasaki Advanced Aesthetic Medical Center in Pasadena, California, provide personalized, multi-tiered solutions for all your aesthetic concerns.
Our services include top-level surgical, nonsurgical, and skincare treatments that successfully reduce the signs of aging. If you’re struggling with prominent veins, wrinkles, lost volume, and other signs of aging in your hands, we can help.
Here are four compelling reasons for considering hand rejuvenation, which includes skin revitalization and restoration of lost volume for optimal results:
1. Restore lost volume and reduce visible signs of aging
Our hands lose volume and elasticity as we age, leading to prominent veins, wrinkles, and a thin, crepe-like skin texture.
Treatments such as a fat transfer restore lost volume, smoothing out wrinkles and enhancing the overall texture of the skin, resulting in a more youthful and revitalized appearance.
During a fat transfer procedure, Dr. Sasaki extracts fat from common donor sites such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs and injects it into the backs of the hands. This restores lost volume and reduces the appearance of veins, tendons, and sagging skin.
Dr. Sasaki may also recommend dermal fillers to add volume. Fillers and fat transfer can also enhance your body’s ability to produce collagen for skin repair. Additionally, fat transfer introduces new stem cells into the region, which can also prompt improved skin tone and health.
2. Fade age spots and hyperpigmentation
Years of sun exposure can lead to age spots and hyperpigmentation on the hands. Treatments like thermal therapy (Ultherapy®), intense pulsed light (IPL), and chemical peels can lighten these dark spots, providing a more even skin tone.
The Sasaki team may recommend one or more of these therapies to target areas compromised by sun exposure, providing comprehensive hand rejuvenation that helps your hands look as youthful as the rest of your body.
3. Enhance skin quality and texture
Beyond addressing volume loss and pigmentation, hand rejuvenation treatments can significantly improve the overall quality and texture of the skin.
Techniques such as microneedling promote collagen production, producing firmer, smoother skin. This reduces the appearance of wrinkles and crepe-like skin and enhances the skin’s resilience and glow.
Many hand rejuvenation treatments stimulate the skin's natural regenerative processes, slowing future aging.
For instance, treatments promoting collagen and elastin production help maintain the skin’s firmness and elasticity over time, providing long-lasting benefits and keeping your hands youthful for years to come.
4. Boost confidence and self-esteem
Our hands are constantly visible, whether meeting and greeting with a handshake, texting or typing, or simply gesturing during conversation.
Hands that look aged or neglected can affect confidence and self-esteem. Hand rejuvenation can reverse the signs of aging and help boost your confidence.
