Our hands are much more likely than any other part of the body to be exposed to unwanted factors from the outside. And therefore the skin of the hands ages almost the very first: it becomes thinner, dries up, wrinkles, age spots and marked veins appear on it.
Causes of premature aging of the skin of the hands:
- Weather.Sudden temperature changes, scorching sun, ultraviolet light, gusts and cold, rain and frost - all this leads to cramps in the capillaries, decreased blood supply, vasodilation, dryness and the appearance of age spots.
- Household chemicals.How often do we wash the dishes or the floor without gloves? What type of soap do we choose? Household chemicals, even labeled as safe for hands, still have a negative effect - they destroy the natural lipid layer, leading to premature dryness of the skin.
- Hormonal changes.Hormones are the most unpredictable factor affecting our skin and hand skin is no exception. Women are most susceptible to this after 45 years, when the hormonal background changes, the production of collagen and lipids decreases, the veins appear and wrinkles appear.
- Age.With age, the skin undergoes natural processes of thinning of the fat layer, dehydration and reduction of skin renewal.
How can I help my skin? Of course, home procedures, masks and creams always remain, but after 40-45 years they become inadequate, and wrinkles, veins and age spots betray the true age. Therefore, modern cosmetology offers many effective and safe procedures for hand rejuvenation.
Injection rejuvenation of the hands
Biorevitalization and mesotherapy are procedures that are not only effective for the face. They do an excellent job with the natural aging process in the skin of the hands. Rejuvenating hands with hyaluronic acid used during the biorevitalization procedure allows the skin to retain moisture as much as our hands need, and vitamin cocktails selected individually for mesotherapy procedures promote the production of collagen and elastin, eliminate pigmentation and renew skin cells.
The complex impact of the course of such procedures:
- retains moisture in the subcutaneous layers and the intercellular space;
- stimulates collagen synthesis;
- initiates skin cell regeneration;
- restores firmness and elasticity
- lights up the skin
- prevents wrinkles.
Plasma lifting of hands has a similar effect - with the undeniable 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 effects.
Additional benefits of injection procedures for the skin of the hands are in their short rehabilitation period: it does not take long to recover after injections. In addition, injection techniques (biorevitalization, mesotherapy and plasma lifting) in combination with laser rejuvenation significantly enhance and prolong.
Important: To achieve a lasting effect of rejuvenation, mesotherapy or plasma lifting procedures should be performed during 4-5 sessions with a break once a year. Biorevitalization is performed as a single procedure every 6-12 months depending on the initial condition of the skin of the hands.
Another good injection procedure for hand rejuvenation is contouring. This procedure is indispensable for the so-called "skeletalization of the hands" - when the decrease in the volume of subcutaneous fat becomes visible tendons and protruding veins.
With contour plastic, these lost volumes are replenished with special fillers based on hyaluronic acid. Fillers are injected into problem areas and create the effect of soft, smooth skin, hide tendons and veins, smooth wrinkles and retain moisture in the skin and keep it hydrated.
Important: Contouring is performed as a single procedure every 6-12 months depending on the initial condition of the skin of the hands.

Laser rejuvenation of hands
The laser differs from all other anti-aging procedures in cosmetology due to 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 smoothing of skin color, elimination of age spots, wrinkles, improvement of turgor, removal of pronounced vessels and protruding veins. In addition, already after the rehabilitation period in the next month, an improvement in the quality of the skin is seen, which occurs due to the physiological production of collagen, which continues after the procedure.
Under 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 microcontainers, improves blood supply and hydration of the skin
- water-lipid balance is restored;
- melanin synthesis is lowered, age spots light up;
- the skin's protective and barrier functions are activated.
The hands become more elastic and moisturized, visible irregularities are smoothed out, pigmentation is eliminated - the effect achieved lasts up to 4-6 months.
Important: The result from laser exposure is more visible than from other methods of rapid hand rejuvenation, but the recovery period for this procedure is longer and requires more thorough home care.

Chemical peeling of hands and carbon
Chemical peels are effective not only for the face but also for the neck, décolleté or hands. This is the least traumatic and most painless procedure of all, but it nonetheless has an excellent anti-aging effect. Regular hand peeling removes wrinkles, age spots, evens out skin color and texture, promotes its renewal and regeneration.
Among all the peels used in clinics, I would especially note the effectiveness of:- retinoic ("yellow") peeling. Retinoids are synthetic analogues of vitamin A, the most important "rejuvenating" vitamin in our body. Retinoic peels trigger the processes of deep cellular renewal, rejuvenation and elimination of wrinkles and defects, while not damaging the skin at all and without causing unpleasant sensations. By the way, clinics offer a comprehensive procedure for retinoic rejuvenation of the face, neck and hands.
- carbon peeling, unique in its effect thanks to the combination of a special carbon gel and a laser. Carbon peeling brightens and smoothes the skin, stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, removes age spots and restores the skin's lipid balance.
Peeling procedures are performed during 4-6 sessions, the frequency of the procedures is determined by the beautician at the reception.
