Hand Rejuvenation | Dr Benjamin Cozanet Paris

To maintain soft, smooth, plump hands with no age spots nor hollows, hand rejuvenation and beautification are important factors to consider in aesthetic medicine.

The aesthetic treatment of the hands also helps maintain a natural and harmonious alliance with aesthetic face, neck, and décolletage care.

Without the appropriate treatment, hands easily betray a person’s age.

Hands play a major social role and are exposed daily in all our actions and gestures.

Beautiful hands are a real asset and can betray a woman’s age. Many women feel insecure about their aging hands and aren’t necessarily aware of aesthetic medicine’s natural and adapted treatments.

The request for hand rejuvenation through aesthetic medicine is also frequent for men after 50.

Doctor Benjamin Cozanet receives numerous questions on hand rejuvenation and prescribes different hyaluronic acid injections or Calcium hydroxyapatite (Radiesse®) or photorejuvenation lasers which are useful and effective, to maintain a natural balance with face rejuvenation.

Everything you need to know about hand rejuvenation 

The skin on your hands is particularly fragile: it thins out and dries out over time. The subcutaneous fat decreases over time, gradually revealing the veins and tendons. This process is called “skeletonization” of the hands.  Then age spots develop on the backs of hands. 

The hands are equally submitted to numerous daily aggressions: temperature variations, dryness, detergents, frequent washing, sun, UVs… for these reasons the backs of our hands age faster and quickly betray the age of patients.

Top cosmetic procedures for hand rejuvenation

Dr Benjamin Cozanet uses cutting-edge aesthetic medical technologies for advanced hand rejuvenation at his Parisian clinic:

All-Around Benefits:

• Replump and rehydrate hand skin with Skinboosters or tissue inducers like Radiesse® (Calcium hydroxylapatite) to match your younger looking face 

• Fill in hand hollows linked to thinning hand skin and subcutaneous fat loss on the hands, thanks to filler products like hyaluronic acid to shape and restore lost volume. 

• Rejuvenate and beautify hands by diminishing the appearance of veins and tendons.

• Erase age spots through pigment lasers or photorejuvenation. 

• Correct any imbalance between a younger-looking face and disturbing older looking hands.

• Combine hand treatment with neck and decolletage treatments, if necessary.

The best hyaluronic acids to beautify your hands

Several hyaluronic acids can be used for the hands depending on the patient’s profile:

Skinboosters hyaluronic acid, (low or non-reticulated) brings ultra hydration to the skin to highly replump, smooth and rehydrate.

Hyaluronic acid, which is reticulated and more volumizing, will fill-in hollows masking apparent veins and tendons, effectively replacing lipofilling (fat injections).

Hands are rejuvenated and reshaped in just 20-30 minutes, and the effect increases in the days that follow the session.

The injections are painless, since the filler product contains anesthesia. They are performed after disinfecting the skin with a blunt-tipped microcannula, leaving no marks, nor visible traces after the injections.

They typically last 12-18 months. These types of hyaluronic acid can equally be used to fill-in certain face wrinkles, or volumize (chin, cheekbones, lips, nose, oval or temples) on the facial zone.

Hand rejuvenation with Radiesse®

Radiesse® is often used for the hands since it is a resorbable filler, much like hyaluronic acid, used in aesthetic medicine and completely natural (Calcium hydroxyapatite).

This malleable injection product effectively fills hollows on the back sides of the hands which appear over time, masking the veins and tendons visible under the skin.

Hand rejuvenation with Radiesse® is equally referred to as a “tissue inducer” which stimulates collagen production by our body on the treatment zone, giving the skin a smoother, more subtle and natural appearance.

Dr Benjamin Cozanet performs Radiesse® injections on the hands, neck, decolletage or all other body regions where the skin appears folded or wrinkled.

This painless treatment is performed with a blunt-tipped microcannula or through a few micro injection points. 

The product is then massaged to distribute it to all the hollow regions on the backs of the hands and mask the superficial veins and the tendons.

Removing age spots on the hands

Age spots on the hands can be treated by Dr Benjamin Cozanet with a pigment laser or pulsed light.

This treatment requires 1-3 sessions, 1 month apart, avoiding any sun exposure.

The results will be better maintained with protective sun creams since UVs are strongly related to the appearance of age spots.

Certain peeling treatments can equally be prescribed for less severe age spots or the reduction of age spots.

Don’t neglect your hands when you care for your face, neck and decolletage.
