Hand rejuvenation – correcting the signs of older age
KÖ-KLINIK - Handverjüngung Well cared for hands are a key symbol of attractiveness. Whether women’s or men’s, in the job or private life – the hands are always seen and tell the true age.

Apart from the face, the hands are especially exposed to environmental influences. Visible traces become apparent with age: the skin thins out, the hands become wrinkled and develop pigmentation marks. Due to the decrease of subcutaneous fat tissue, it is missing the juvenile padding. Sinews and metacarpal bone are more clearly protruding. The hands appear crinkled, boney and old.

Those who do not want to accept the aging of their hands or who believe that their hands no longer suit their young face are now able to do more than just rely on their hand cream. Because even a diligent daily care can neither stop nor reduce the apparent signs of aging skin.

Providing a slight hypodermic fullness, the hand will look attractive and healthy; veins and sinews are covered, but not completely invisible. Sinews become more visible when the hand is moved and fingers are stretched than when the hand is bent or umoving. The more thin or athletic a person is, the more visible their sinews become. Although a healthy padding of the back of the hand allows the anatomical structures to be seen, they are not visible in detail.

By means of a directed hyaluronic acid injection, the back of the hand can be padded. The hands will receive a more juvenile appearance. In addition, the moisture storage of the skin will be improved, the collagen synthesis activated. Hyaluronic accid is a natural component of the main substance of the skin. It is produced biotechnologically and offered by the manufacturers in prefabricated syringes. The advantages are a very low allergy rate and a simple application. By injecting a special hyaluronic acid preparation, the optical appearance and the capacity of keeping the skin moist are improved, because the natural level of hyaluronic acid is raised.

The treatment is uncomplicated. Incompatibility reactions are rare. There are hardly any risks. Depending on the physical strain, the substance decomposes latest after six months, however the treatment can be frequently repeated.

We are looking forward to you
