Using Radiesse For Hand Rejuvenation

Too often the spotlight of cosmetic surgery is on the face or neck since this is what we see when we look at someone

. The aging process can be noted in hanging skin, loss of volume, wrinkles and age spots. Although not given as much as attention as the face, the hands are an age revealer as well. Similar to the aging process anywhere in the body, our hands lose their youthful look with loss of fat volume, joint protrusion, bulging veins, and thinness, in addition to brown spots from sun exposure. It can seem odd having a younger face yet older hands, and this is why hand rejuvenation is getting some attention in cosmetic surgery.

The Radiesse hand lift is a modern procedure that uses injections to rejuvenate the hands. At present, Radiesse injections are more often on the face to help create a fuller, smoother more youthful look. Radiesse, however can be easily use on the top (dorsum) of the hands to likewise fill depressions, soften the aged appearance, and fill in voids which allow the tendons and anatomy to be exposed.

Bearing in mind all of the advantages of Radiesse, it is no surprise that it would be the perfect procedure to use for hand rejuvenation. It can be performed easily as an office based procedure, and of course with attention to detail that every procedure requires. It can be done with a minor amount of local anesthesia, or the type of anesthesia used during liposuction called tumescent anesthesia. The doctor will mark the specific areas where the product will be injected, and results can be seen immediately, albeit with expected swelling which would occur with any manipulation. Injections usually take anywhere between 15-30 minutes per hand or more depending on the particular case. There will be some redness, mild swelling, and bruising where the injections were administered.

Following the procedure, it is suggested that the patient rest their hands for a couple of days to avoid excessive swelling and to let the product set. Due to Radiesses ability to supply some basis for collagen-building, the bodys own collagen combines with Radiesses rejuvenation effects helping to keep the skin looking and feeling soft, natural, and smooth.

Aside from injecting Radiesse into the hands, a professional can take extra steps to satisfy their patients quest for a more youthful appearance with other hand rejuvenation procedures. If age spots are a concern, laser rejuvenation or chemical peels are great alternatives. These two treatments can be carried out in conjunction with the Radiesse application. At the end of the session, and with time, the hands will look much improved. There will be more symmetry now if facial and hand rejuvenation is done at the same time. Alternatively, some patients may simply elect to improve their hands without regard to the face or other body areas.

The cost of the procedure can approach one thousand or more dollars, but is well worth it. Results are not permanent, but can be "touched up" over time. Many cosmetic surgeons will try to reduce costs to patients if multiple procedures are done at the same time, so consider hand rejuvenation in your consultation with your doctor.
