The hands are often one of the first places to show visible signs of aging. Over time, the skin on the hands loses volume and elasticity, which can lead to prominent veins, tendons, and a thinner, more fragile appearance. Sun exposure and environmental damage may also cause age spots and uneven texture, making the hands look older than the face.
If you’re frustrated by these changes, you’re in luck. Non-surgical treatments, such as Radiesse®, can help restore a youthful appearance to the hands. Ohio Clinic for Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, led by board-certified plastic surgeon Michael H. Wojtanowski, M.D., F.A.C.S., offers this treatment to patients in the Cleveland area.
What Is Hand Rejuvenation with Radiesse?
Hand rejuvenation with Radiesse is a non-surgical treatment designed to restore volume and smooth the skin on the backs of the hands.
Radiesse is an FDA-approved filler composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a gel. Once injected, it provides immediate volume to mask visible veins and tendons while also stimulating the body’s natural collagen production for longer-lasting improvement.
Creams and topical treatments only address surface concerns. However, Radiesse works beneath the skin to restore structure and support. This dual action creates hands that look more youthful immediately and continue to improve over time as collagen levels increase.
What Are the Benefits of Hand Rejuvenation?
Patients in Cleveland often choose Radiesse for hand rejuvenation because of its proven results and natural appearance. It offers:
- Immediate improvement: Adds fullness and reduces the appearance of tendons and veins right away.
- Collagen stimulation: Encourages the body’s natural collagen production for long-term results.
- Natural-looking outcomes: Smooths and plumps the skin without looking artificial.
- Minimally invasive treatments: Quick, in-office procedure with little to no downtime.
- Durability: Results often last a year or longer, making Radiesse one of the longest-lasting fillers for hands.
How Long Do Results from Radiesse Last?
Most patients enjoy results from Radiesse for 12 to 18 months. This time period varies depending on their metabolism, lifestyle, and the rate at which their body produces new collagen. Because the filler stimulates natural collagen growth, the benefits may last even longer than those of other injectable treatments.
What Is the Recovery Like After Hand Rejuvenation?
Recovery from Radiesse hand rejuvenation is typically quick and simple. Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site may occur, but it usually subsides within a few days. There is no need for incisions or extended downtime.
Am I a Good Candidate for Hand Rejuvenation?
Hand rejuvenation with Radiesse is an excellent option for adults who notice thinning skin, visible veins, or loss of volume in their hands. Ideal candidates are in good overall health and seek a non-surgical solution for achieving a more youthful appearance in their hands. During a consultation, Dr. Wojtanowski evaluates each patient’s skin and goals to create a personalized treatment plan.
