Introduction

CHAPTER 80 Approaches to Hand

Rejuvenation

Isabela T. Jones Ross C. Radusky Sabrina G. Fabi

SUMMARY

As many patients seek facial cosmetic procedures, a discrepancy forms between

the rejuvenated look of their face and the aged appearance of their hands.

Hand rejuvenation addresses both surface changes and volume loss, and

combination multimodality approaches may be best.

Beginner Tips

A thorough understanding of hand anatomy is a prerequisite for procedural

intervention.

IPL and lasers are highly effective at improving surface changes on the hands.

When using CaHA fillers, the scrape skin threading technique may help to avoid overly

deep product placement.

Expert Tips

If nodule formation occurs after filler injections: antibiotics -> hyaluronidase/ILK ->

excision.

Overcorrect when performing autologous fat transfer.

Consider sclerotherapy if volumization does not solve vein prominence.

Donโ€™t Forget!

Sclerotherapy and autologous fat transfer should be performed separately.

Vein treatments should be performed at least 1 month prior to other procedures.

Pitfalls and Cautions

When performing chemical peels on the hand, it is important to remember that

treatments should be limited to superficial and medium depth peels because of the risk of impaired wound healing.

Since the dorsal hand skin is thinner, has decreased vascularity, and fewer

pilosebaceous units than the face, the fluence, density, and number of passes should generally be reduced to minimize recovery time.

Patient Education Points

Patients should understand that they will likely require multiple treatments.

Remember the 5โ€“5โ€“5 rule after filler injection: massage for 5 minutes at a time, 5

times per day, for a total of 5 days.

As always, appropriate patient selection and assuring adequate motivation are of vital

importance.
