Overview
The hands are one of the areas where signs of ageing are noticed early. Over time the skin thins and subcutaneous fat decreases; veins, tendons and bony structures can become more visible. Sun-related pigmentation and changes in skin quality can also make the hands look older.
Hand filler is applied to support volume loss on the back of the hand and to reduce the prominence of veins and tendons. In hand rejuvenation planning, hyaluronic acid fillers or biostimulator treatments may be preferred according to individual needs.
The aim is not to over-volumise the hands, but to support lost volume, improve skin quality and achieve a more natural appearance.
How Is Hand Filler Performed?
Before the procedure, volume loss on the back of the hand, the prominence of veins and tendons, and skin quality are assessed.
A topical anaesthetic cream is applied and left for about 15–20 minutes. Depending on the selected product and plan, hyaluronic acid filler or a biostimulator is delivered to the appropriate anatomical planes with a needle or cannula.
Mild swelling, tenderness or bruising may occur afterwards. Most people can continue with daily life.
