Don’t Forget About Your Hands!

Every day, we see patients in our Naples plastic surgery office looking to improve the appearance of their face.  Through surgical and non-surgical procedures, we routinely help our patients achieve a beautiful, youthful appearance.  However, many women neglect the one area of their body that can easily give away their age – the hands!

From brown spots to loss of volume, the hands can easily betray a woman’s real age.  Thankfully, our office offers several treatment options to address the most common signs of age on the hands.

Brown / Age Spots

Living in the Florida sun causes pesky brown spots to appear on the face and hands.  These trouble areas can be addressed with a treatment called IPL (Intense Pulsed Light).  This simple treatment uses light to target pigment in the skin.  After a series of three easy treatments, patients notice a significant improvement in their brown spots, as well as more luminous skin.

Loss of Volume

As we age, we lose volume in our hands, resulting in a drawn, wrinkled appearance.  This volume can easily be restored using an injectable filler called Radiesse.®   This filler is injected into the hands, immediately plumping wrinkles and restoring a more youthful appearance.

On a daily basis, make you sure you are applying sunscreen to your hands, as well as your face. Many skin care products can also be used on the hands.  After you have treated your face, rub any remaining product into your hands.  This will ensure your hands stay as young and beautiful as your face.

If you have questions about how we can help you achieve a more youthful appearance, let us know in the comments or give us a call at (239) 262-5662.
