Hand Rejuvenation

Our hands are often exposed to the most harsh weather conditions and other harmful elements that we come into contact with every day. As a result, our hands show obvious signs of ageing. Wrinkles, darkened spots and fatty tissues can make a hand appear older than it actually is, which is why many turn to the hand rejuvenation treatment process. Hand rejuvenation treatment can help you get rid of unwanted ageing signs, restoring your hand’s youthful appearance. This is a cosmetic surgery procedure and its effects may vary from person to person.

Who is the right candidate?

There are no general requirements for this procedure; however, it’s best to check with your doctor just in case. Assuming you are healthy, there shouldn’t be anything physical holding you back from hand rejuvenation.

Types of treatments

When consulting your doctor with intent to undergo the hand rejuvenation, he/she will list out the different types of treatment you can opt for. These include:
Chemical peel - in this process, a chemical is applied to the skin causing the visible age spots to disappear, making the tissues look less transparent.
Sclerotherapy - involves injecting a sclerosing solution into visible veins. This solution will irritate the veins, causing them to become white and gradually disappear.
Microdermabrasion – this is a procedure that involves skin polishing. It removes the first layer of damaged skin by using tiny exfoliating crystals.
Laser skin resurfacing - uses a laser beam to destroy the darkened skin.

How much does it cost?

The cost of this procedure may vary depending on the type of treatment you opt for. Laser skin resurfacing has proven to be more expensive than the other treatments listed. Second on the list would be a chemical peel treatment. Fee structure may vary depending on whether the doctor is practicing in urban, suburban or rural areas. The treatment session isn’t necessarily the only associated cost – there may be medicine and other post-treatment expenses to take care of.
