Hands, in addition to the face and neck, are the parts of the body that truly show your age. Over time your hands are typically exposed to the elements which take their toll on the skin. Age and genetics also contribute to a loss of volume and a thinning of the skin resulting in a papery appearance. Veins in your hands can become noticeable as tissue volume naturally decreases. Wrinkles and lines can form after continual use and brown spots can form from sun exposure. Unless you are wearing gloves everyone can see you hands and even if the rest of you looks fantastic, your hands often give your age away. A hand rejuvenation treatment in Toronto can give you relief from these symptoms and restore the youthful appearance of your hands. Dr. Plant has helped many patients in the Toronto area get the look they desire.
When patients elect for a fat grafting technique, they can expect shallow hand areas to experience a new lift and more youthful appearance. Dr. Plant first takes fat tissue from a more plentiful area of the body, like the thighs or stomach, and then injects the harvested tissue into various areas of the hands. This process can leave your hands looking more full, and rejuvenated. The improvements seen with fat grafting can last up to 10 years.
As an experienced plastic surgeon in the Toronto area, Dr. Mathew Plant can identify what areas of your hands may benefit from Radiesse. This is a minimally-invasive treatment and has very little downtime involved. Treatment with Radiesse involves injecting small amounts of the volumizing filler gel into different areas of the hands. After a hand rejuvenation treatment with Radiesse, many patients notice their wrinkles and depressions in their hands become softer and fuller.
Once the volume has been restored, the brown spots and other skin irregularities can be improved with a Fractora treatment using the Invasix radiofrequency system.
