What is hand rejuvenation?
Hand rejuvenation is a tailored approach to improving the visible signs of ageing on the back of the hands. Common concerns include thinning skin, loss of soft tissue volume, visible veins or tendons, sun spots, pigmentation, dryness and crepey texture.
Because these concerns can come from different layers of the skin and tissue, hand rejuvenation is not usually a single fixed treatment. The right plan depends on whether the main issue is volume loss, skin quality, pigmentation, or a combination of all three.
What concerns can it help with?
- Thin or crepey skin on the backs of the hands
- Loss of soft tissue volume, making veins or tendons look more visible
- Age spots, sun spots or uneven pigmentation
- Dry, dull or rough-looking skin texture
- Hands that look older than the face, neck or decolletage
Hand rejuvenation before and after
Before-and-after results depend on the concern being treated, the treatment selected and your individual skin quality. Where suitable, your doctor can show relevant examples during consultation and explain what level of improvement may be realistic for your hands.
If your main concern is pigmentation, results are assessed differently from volume loss or crepey skin. This is why a consultation is important before choosing a treatment plan.
Treatment options for ageing hands
Your doctor will assess the hands first, then recommend the most suitable option or combination. Possible approaches may include:
- Skin boosters for hydration, elasticity and fine crepiness.
- Polynucleotides where the concern is fragile, tired or poor-quality skin.
- Dermal filler where volume loss makes veins or tendons more prominent.
- PicoSure Pro or IPL where pigmentation, sun spots or uneven tone are the main concern.
- Medical-grade skincare to support pigment control, hydration and long-term maintenance.
How do we choose the right treatment?
The hands are assessed in layers. If the main issue is volume loss, an injectable volumising approach may be discussed. If the main issue is crepey skin or poor skin quality, skin boosters or regenerative injectables may be more suitable. If the main issue is brown spots or sun damage, laser or IPL-based pigment treatment may be considered.
Some patients need only one category of treatment. Others benefit from a staged plan, for example pigment treatment first, followed by skin-quality support once the surface tone has improved.
What happens at your consultation?
Your doctor will examine the skin thickness, visible veins, pigmentation pattern and any previous treatment history. You will receive a personalised recommendation and written quote before deciding whether to proceed.
Hand rejuvenation should look natural. The aim is not to make the hands look overfilled or different from the rest of you, but to make them look better matched to your face, neck and overall skin quality.
Is hand rejuvenation a package?
At Rejuva London, hand rejuvenation is best positioned as a personalised treatment plan rather than a fixed package. This avoids selling the wrong treatment to patients whose main concern is actually pigment, volume loss, or skin texture.
