How to restore youthful skin on hands

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

Our hands are one of the markers (as well as the neck with the zona décolleté, earlobe), by which it is very easy to understand that the 18th birthday is long over. In the hands at the first meeting with someone, our eyes consciously or unconsciously fall. Therefore, it must be remembered that the withering of the skin on the hands begins earlier than the aging of the skin on the face. This happens because the skin on the hands is very thin: like the skin around the eyes and neck, it has almost no layer of subcutaneous tissue, which produces a layer of fat sufficient to protect the skin from various damages. 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 hand.

In addition, after 25 years, the process of skin renewal begins to slow down in the human body: the synthesis of collagen and elastin fibers, which are responsible for firmness and elasticity, decreases. At the same time, blood circulation throughout the body slows down, which provokes difficulty in "breathing" the skin and, accordingly, nourishing the skin. Gradually, the skin becomes rougher and flabby. In addition, over time, veins and veins emerge through the surface layer, contoured tendons.

Age spots are added, which are the result of thinning of the basement membrane that separates the epidermis (top layer of skin) from the dermis (bottom layer of skin). As a result, pigments embedded in the deep layers of the skin begin to appear on the surface, forming uneven age spots.

Cosmetic plastic surgery on the hands can eliminate various age-related problems, restore skin elasticity, increase the synthesis of collagen and elastin.

What problems does hand plastic surgery treat?

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

  • loss of adipose tissue;
  • hyperpigmentation;
  • thinning and dry skin, decreased elasticity;
  • wrinkles and folds;
  • photoaging, roughness;
  • grayish or yellowish color;
  • superficial vein contour.

The best technique for rejuvenating hand skin

The advent of new injection techniques and hardware, as well as the creation of fillers designed to treat age-related dermal problems, have made hand skin repair a simple and affordable procedure.

Biorevitalization

Biorevitalization is the easiest and fastest way to correct age-related disorders. This procedure delivers hyaluronic acid to the deep layers of the skin, thereby providing long-term hydration and protection. Hydration in the dermis improves tone, slows down the aging process, improves tissue color and structure, and also removes small wrinkles and folds.

In addition, this procedure has a complex healing effect: it stimulates the production of its own hyaluronic acid, promotes regeneration of the intercellular spaces and protects the skin from the effects of antioxidants.

Often, biorevitalization is prescribed as a preparation for chemical peels, fractional photothermolysis, IPL and during the recovery period thereafter.

Who is shown the procedure?

Hyaluronic acid injections have no age limit. They are shown at the first signs of dryness and lethargy of the skin.

Mesotherapy

A procedure similar to biorevitalization, but not only hyaluronic acid is used as an injection, but also a complex of nutrients.

Properly selected preparations for mesotherapy or cocktails among them help to get rid of many cosmetic problems: dry skin of the hands, wrinkles, wrinkles, loss of tone and elasticity. In addition, this procedure provides a good toning of tissues, and also has a brightening healing and antioxidant effect. Injections will remove hyperpigmentation and minor scars, tighten the skin, restore a healthy color and tone. Often, mesotherapy is 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-injectable mesotherapy. It is no less effective than the classic version, but requires more procedures. The results are stored for six months. You can extend it by taking a second course or by having a series of treatment sessions once a month.

Who is the recommended procedure for?

Mesotherapy also has no age limit. Ideally, it is suitable for patients with dry and flabby hand skin, covered with wrinkles and folds.

Hand contour plastic

This procedure helps restore lost volume, smooth out prominent veins, and give the brush a pleasant roundness. This technique is based on the injection of a subcutaneous filler with hyaluronic acid.

Since hyaluronate is a natural component of the human body, there are practically no allergic reactions to this procedure. For the introduction of a filler under the skin of the hand, an atraumatic cannula is used - a surgical needle in the form of a soft tube, which allows the rejuvenation procedure to be carried out painlessly and to prevent the appearance of a hematoma.

Modern preparations for contour plastics - fillers manufactured in Germany and the Netherlands - have proven indispensable in restoring volume and extraordinary softness to the skin of the hands.

So, the innovative development of Dutch scientists - dermal fillers - guarantees a rejuvenating effect that lasts from 1 to 4 years. The effectiveness of the drug provides a unique formula. For example, the main component of fillers is polycaprolactone, a soft medical suture material. Polycaprolactone stimulates skin cells - fibroblasts - to produce type 1 collagen. That is, such collagen is intensively formed in human skin at the age of 18-20 and makes it elastic, soft and supple, hiding blood vessels.

Polycaprolactone is gradually absorbed into the tissues and excreted from the body naturally, without interfering with the function of organs and systems. Therefore, fillers are considered very safe.

German filler, consisting of a mineral associated with the human body - calcium hydroxyapatite, has the extraordinary property of launching a powerful process for its own collagen production: the skin becomes dense and firm - without a single wrinkle.

It is this property that makes this filler-assisted rejuvenation of the skin of the hands so effective and persistent: the skin on the hands after the injection will look flawless for more than 2 years. An important advantage of the drug is its 100% biocompatibility with the human body. Thanks to this feature, an initial allergy test is not required.

90% of patients who underwent hand rejuvenation with German fillers were satisfied with the results of the procedure immediately after, and 93% within 12 weeks afterward.

Who is the recommended procedure for?

Injectable plastic is suitable for people who have little subcutaneous fat on their hands due to natural or age-related changes.

Laser therapy for hands

Laser fractional thermolysis is based on exposing the skin to high temperatures. But you should not be afraid of the procedure. The laser beam penetrates into the deep layers of the dermis, and the upper layer - the epidermis - is not damaged. No pain either.

This procedure smoothes wrinkles, evens out skin tone, tightens and renews tissue. With the help of a scattered laser beam, spider veins, hemangiomas, obvious foci of hyperpigmentation can be removed.

Modern fractional devices make it possible to carry out thermolysis with the highest accuracy. At the same time, the effect on the skin of the hands is very gentle, and the results remain for years.

Who is the recommended procedure for?

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

  • weakness of the skin of the hands, wrinkles, wrinkles;
  • photo aging;
  • scars and scars after injuries, burns, operations;
  • age spots, including age spots.

Plasmolifting

Plasmolifting involves introducing into the hands own skin, purified, platelet-rich plasma. This healing and rejuvenating procedure has great potential - it is able to activate all the body's forces, which 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.

Who is the recommended procedure for?

Plasmolifting will be useful for everyone who wants to get rid of the early signs of aging, tighten and repair the dermis, restore firmness and elasticity.

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

peeling

Exfoliation involves removing the keratinized upper layer of the epidermis from the hand. The procedure starts from the process of cell renewal, rejuvenating and tightening the tissue, restoring softness and smoothness.

The rejuvenating effect of exfoliation is quite persistent: the surface of the skin is smoothed, wrinkles and spots disappear, the brush acquires a healthy color and smoothness.

Who is the recommended procedure for?

A light peel with lactic, glycolic or salicylic acid is used to remove unevenness and even out skin tone. This procedure is suitable for young people with early wilting of the dermis of the hands.

For more mature patients with sluggish, sagging skin and signs of photoaging, moderate exfoliation is recommended - treatment with trichloroacetic acid will smooth out scars and roughness, remove pigmentation, and renew the top layer of the epidermis.

Paraffin wrap

The main effect of paraffin therapy is to moisturize the skin. So, with the application of paraffin, there is a deep uniform heating of all tissues, metabolic processes in the cells are accelerated, the destruction of lipids is stimulated and the skin is smoothed. In problem areas, fluid stagnation occurs, which prevents the removal of toxins. The hot paraffin causes the liquid, along with the decay products dissolved in it, to come to the surface. Since the sweat released does not evaporate due to the paraffin peel, water is reabsorbed, and toxins remain on the surface. As a result, the skin does not dry out, as in a sauna, but on the contrary, is moisturized, smoothed and tightened. Such intense hydration well restores the water balance of the skin, preventing its aging. In addition, when exposed to heat, the blood supply to the skin increases, which helps restore the skin's structure.

Paraffin wrap for hands can relieve dryness, peeling, redness. During the procedure, active healing of microcracks occurs, the skin becomes smooth and soft. The pen after paraffin therapy will look much younger. And for all the other advantages, the procedure is very pleasant - once the mood improves, endorphins are produced - the hormone of happiness.

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

To consolidate the therapeutic effect of paraffin, relaxing massages and special tonics for the hands will help.

Who is shown the procedure?

Paraffin therapy has no age limit. With this procedure, you can clean the top layer of skin from keratinized epidermis, dust particles, external contaminants that clog pores. As a result, lymph flow is activated, which improves skin nutrition. In the end, the skin becomes elastic, elastic, velvety, acquires a bright color.
