The hands are one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. Loss of collagen and elasticity in the skin leads to loose skin and wrinkles appearing on the back of the hands, and this process can become more rapid as a result of smoking.
Dermal Fillers can be carefully injected to revitalise the appearance of the hands by replenishing lost volume, diminishing wrinkles and smoothing out loose skin.
Adding volume in specific areas causes an instant lift to the tissue of the back of the hand, therefore reducing the appearance of exposed tendons and blood vessels which make the hands look tired and aged, leaving you with a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
Treatment FAQs
Q. What are the aftercare procedures?
For treatment options involving filler:
- Avoid touching or rubbing the treatment area 4 hours after the treatment.
- No makeup should be applied to the treatment area 4 hours after the treatment. (Ensure your makeup application is thoroughly clean before applying)
- Avoid excessive drinking of alcohol for 24 hours
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
- Avoid exposing the treated area to intense heat (e.g. Sauna, steam room, hot bath, hot compress, hot teas/coffees) for the first 72 hours.
- Swelling does not always occur but may last up to 2 weeks in some patients, depending on procedure.
Q. Are there any side effects?
Immediately after treatment, there may be slight redness, tenderness and an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection. The inconvenience is temporary and generally disappears in a few hours. If it continues or if other reactions occur, please call us.
Q. Treatment, Travelling and Big Events?
Travelling:
Flying can increase the chances of swelling after your treatment, this isn’t a problem and it is still possible to travel around your appointment, but we would recommend using ice to combat any swelling that you experience.
Big Events:
We advise booking far in advance of any big events you have coming up, to allow any swelling to subside and allow us to address any issues or top ups that my need performing to maximise your results. We ask all of our patients who have big events coming up, to get in contact with us before booking so we can best arrange your treatment to happen at the recommended number of weeks before your event.
Q. When will I see results?
For filler treatment, the results will be seen immediately after treatment, and fully realised once any redness and swelling has subsided.
Testimonials
What our patients really think...
I wasn’t pressured into doing anything outright and was told about all the possible options I could take and the differences between them and what would suit me. I have had two sessions and over that time, I am beyond pleased with the the results! Dr Zoya has masterfully kept my face the same but just enhanced and corrected things certain in places.
After following their work for some time, I finally made an appointment with this dream team and it was well worth the 3 hour journey.
The procedure was quick, painless and the results astonishing. A professional but friendly practice. Thank you so much!
