How to restore youth to the skin of the hands

Hand skin with age-related changes that require the use of rejuvenation techniques

Our hands are one of the markers (also on the neckline, the earlobes) with which it is very easy to understand that the 18th anniversary is long over. When we first meet a person, we look at our hands consciously or unconsciously. Therefore, we must remember that the deterioration of the skin of the hands begins earlier than the aging of the facial skin. This is because the skin on the hands is very thin: just like the skin around the eyes and on the neck, it is almost devoid of a layer of subcutaneous tissue that produces a sufficient layer of oily film that protects the skin from many destructions. External factors. In addition, such a film prevents moisture loss, which becomes a natural protection against the appearance of wrinkles. There is practically no such protective film on the hands.

In addition, after 25 years, the skin rejuvenation processes in the human body slow down: the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers, which are responsible for firmness and elasticity, decreases. At the same time, blood flow throughout the body is slowed down, making it difficult for the skin to "breathe" and thus nourish the skin. Gradually, the skin becomes rougher and darker.

Age spots are added as a result of thinning of the basement membrane, which separates the epidermis (top layer of skin) from the dermis (bottom layer of skin). As a result, the pigment embedded in the deeper layers of the skin begins to appear on the surface, unevenly forming age spots.

Cosmetic plastic surgery of the hands can relieve a whole range of age-related problems, restore skin elasticity, improve collagen and elastin synthesis.

What problems does hand plastic surgery solve?

With the help of injection and instrumentation procedures you can solve such problems as:

  • Loss of adipose tissue;
  • Hyperpigmentation;
  • Thinning and dryness of the skin, decreased elasticity;
  • Wrinkles and creases;
  • Photoaging, roughness;
  • With a gray or yellowish tinge;
  • Contouring of superficial veins.

The best technique for rejuvenating the skin of the hands

The advent of state-of-the-art injection and hardware techniques, as well as the creation of fillers designed to address age-related dermis problems, has made hand skin improvement an easy and affordable procedure.

Biorevitalization

Biorevitalization is the easiest and fastest way to correct age-related disorders. The procedure delivers hyaluronic acid to the deeper layers of the skin, thus providing long-lasting hydration and protection. Deep hydration of the dermis improves tone, slows down the aging process, improves the color and structure of tissues, as well as fades small wrinkles and creases.

In addition, the procedure has a complex healing effect: it stimulates the production of its own hyaluronate, improves the regeneration of the intercellular space and protects the skin from the effects of antioxidants.

Often, biorevitalization is prescribed as a period of chemical peels, fractional photothermolysis, IPL and their subsequent recovery.

Who is shown the procedure

Hyaluronic acid injections have no age restrictions. They are indicated at the first signs of dry skin and lethargy.

Mesotherapy

A procedure similar to biorevitalization, but not only hyaluronic acid is used in the form of injections, but also a whole complex of nutrients.

Properly selected preparations for mesotherapy or their cocktail help to eliminate many cosmetic problems: dry skin of the hands, wrinkles, creases, loss of tone and elasticity. In addition, the procedure provides good tissue tightening and also has a clear healing and antioxidant effect. The injections will relieve hyperpigmentation and small scars, tighten the skin, restore a healthy color and even tone. Mesotherapy is often prescribed for the treatment of dermatological diseases of the hands - focal neurodermatitis, eczema, keratosis, nail dystrophy.

For those who are afraid of injections, there is non-injection mesotherapy. It is no less effective than the classic version, but requires more procedure. The result is stored for six months. You can extend it by taking a second course or holding a series of maintenance sessions once a month.

For whom is the procedure recommended?

Mesotherapy also has no age restrictions. Ideally, it is suitable for patients with dry and confused skin of hands covered with wrinkles and creases.

Hand contour plastic

The procedure helps to restore the lost volume, cleans the bulging veins and gives the brushes a pleasant roundness. The technique is based on the subcutaneous injection of a hyaluronic acid filler.

Since hyaluronate is a natural component of the human body, there are virtually no allergic reactions to the procedure. Atraumatic cannulas are used to insert the filler under the skin of the hands - surgical needles in the form of a soft tube, which allows the rejuvenation procedure to be performed without pain and to prevent the appearance of hematomas.

Modern contour plastics - fillers made in Germany and the Netherlands - have already proven their indispensability in restoring hand skin volume and unusual velvet.

Thus, the innovative development of Dutch science - dermal filler - is guaranteed to have a long-lasting rejuvenating effect from 1 to 4 years. The effectiveness of the drug gives a unique formula. For example, the main component of the filler is polycroprolactone, a soft medical suture material. Polycaprolactone stimulates skin cells - fibroblasts - to produce type 1 collagen. In particular, such collagen is intensively formed in human skin at the age of 18-20 years and makes it elastic, soft and velvety, hides blood vessels.

Polycaprolactone is gradually absorbed into tissues and excreted naturally from the body without disrupting the functioning of organs and systems. Therefore, the filler is considered very safe.

The German filler, which is composed of a mineral associated with the human body - calcium hydroxyapatite, has the excellent property of initiating strong processes to produce its own collagen: the skin becomes dense and toned - without a single wrinkle.

It is this feature that makes the rejuvenation of the skin of the hands with the help of this filler very effective and sustainable: the skin on the hands after the injection looks perfect for more than 2 years. An important advantage of the drug is its 100% biocompatibility with the human body. Thanks to this feature, no pre-allergy test is required.

90% of patients who underwent hand rejuvenation with a German filler were satisfied with the results of the procedure immediately, and 93% with it within 12 weeks.

For whom is the procedure recommended?

Injectable plastics are suitable for people who have low subcutaneous fat on their hands due to natural or age-related changes.

Laser therapy for hands

Laser fractional thermolysis is based on skin exposure to high temperatures. But you should not be afraid of the procedure. The laser beam penetrates the deeper layers of the dermis, while the upper layer - the epidermis - is not damaged. Neither is pain.

The procedure softens wrinkles, evens out skin tone, tightens and rejuvenates tissues. With the help of a scattered laser beam can be eliminated spider veins, hemangiomas, pronounced foci of hyperpigmentation.

Modern fractional devices allow you to perform thermolysis with the highest accuracy. At the same time, the effect on the skin of the hands is very gentle and the result remains for many years.

For whom is the procedure recommended?

Laser thermolysis is usually performed for aesthetic reasons, with defects such as:

  • Flaking of the skin of the hands, wrinkles, grooves;
  • Photoaging;
  • Scars and scars after injuries, burns, surgeries;
  • Age spots, including age spots.

Plasmolifting

Plasmolifting involves injecting your own, cleansed and platelet-rich plasma into the skin of your hands. This healing and rejuvenating procedure has enormous potential - it can activate all the forces of the body that will begin to fight the natural causes of aging.

Platelet-rich plasma provides a strong rejuvenating stimulus to the body, providing its own synthesis of hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin.

For whom is the procedure recommended?

Plasmolifting will be useful for anyone who wants to get rid of the first signs of aging, tighten and improve the dermis, restore firmness and elasticity.

Enriched plasma is often used to reduce the severity of non-colloidal scars and scars, to eliminate light pigmentation and blemishes.

Peeling

Peeling involves removing the top keratinized layer of the epidermis from the hands. The procedure starts the process of cell renewal, rejuvenates and tightens tissues, restores softness and smoothness.

The rejuvenating effect of the peeling is quite lasting: the surface of the skin is smoothed, wrinkles and spots disappear, the brushes acquire a healthy color and smoothness.

For whom is the procedure recommended?

Light exfoliation with lactic acid, glycolic or salicylic acids is used to eliminate unevenness and even out skin tone. The procedure is designed for young people with the initial process of drying the dermis of the hands.

For more mature patients with dull and sagging skin and signs of photoaging, a medium peel is recommended - treatment with trichloroacetic acid softens scars and roughness, eliminates pigmentation and rejuvenates the upper layer of the epidermis.

Paraffin packaging

The main effect of paraffin therapy is skin hydration. Thus, the use of paraffin results in a deep uniform heating of all tissues, accelerating metabolic processes in cells, stimulating lipid destruction, and smoothing the skin. In problem areas, fluid stagnation occurs, which prevents the removal of toxins. Hot paraffin causes liquid to come to the surface and dissolve in it along with the dissolved products. Because the sweat released does not evaporate due to the paraffin shell, water is absorbed back and toxins remain on the surface. As a result, the skin does not dry out as in the sauna, but on the contrary, moisturizes, smoothes and thickens. Such intense hydration restores the water balance of the skin well, prevents its aging. In addition, exposure to heat improves the blood supply to the skin, which helps to restore the structure of the skin.

Paraffin wrapping for hands can eliminate dryness, flaking, redness. During the procedure there is an active healing of microcracks, the skin becomes smooth and soft. After paraffin therapy the pens look much more youthful. And with all the other benefits, this procedure is very enjoyable - after that the mood rises, endorphins are produced - hormones of happiness.

There are options for paraffin therapy with various additives such as brown algae. Sometimes a few drops of aromatic essential oils are added to heated paraffin, which not only adds an unusual aroma, but also strengthens and smoothes the skin.

A special soothing and tonic hand massage will help you to enhance the effect of paraffin therapy.

Who is shown the procedure

Paraffin therapy has no age restrictions. With this procedure you can clean the top layer of the skin from keratinized epidermis, dust particles, any external contaminants that close the pores. As a result, lymph drainage is activated, which improves skin nutrition. Eventually, the skin becomes supple, elastic, velvety, acquires a bright color.
