What are the Signs of Ageing Hands?
As we age, our hands often begin to show signs of wear and tear before other parts of the body, serving as a visible indicator of our years. This is largely because our hands are constantly exposed to various elements—from sun exposure to daily activities—which can accelerate the ageing process.
Some of the most common signs of ageing on the hands:
-
Skin Thinning
-
Wrinkles and Fine Lines
-
Dryness and Rough Texture
-
Age Spots and Hyperpigmentation
-
Loss of Volume
-
Decreased Elasticity
-
Fragility and Bruising
Recognising the signs of ageing in your hands is the first step toward taking proactive measures to maintain their health and appearance.
Ageing Hands Treatments
Aesthetic Consultation
At Freyja Medical, we provide specialised aesthetic consultations for ageing hands, guided by our expert practitioners.
These sessions assess signs of ageing like wrinkles, volume loss, and pigmentation.
We tailor treatment plans to each client’s skin type and health history, offering options such as advanced dermal fillers, chemical peels, laser treatments and more.
Our approach ensures safe, effective results, helping clients achieve rejuvenated, youthful hands that reflect their vitality.
Dermal Fillers & Skin Boosters
Dermal fillers and skin boosters are effective for rejuvenating ageing hands, targeting volume loss, wrinkles, and skin laxity.
At Freyja Medical, our practitioners use these treatments to restore volume and improve structure, reducing the visibility of veins and tendons.
Skin boosters deeply hydrate and enhance elasticity with hyaluronic acid, smoothing lines and promoting a youthful, supple look.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels effectively rejuvenate ageing hands, targeting age spots, fine lines, and texture.
At our clinic, we use peels that remove the outer layers of damaged skin, enhancing regeneration and skin quality.
This treatment promotes natural exfoliation, revealing smoother, more evenly toned skin.
IPL / Laser Therapy
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and laser therapy are excellent for rejuvenating ageing hands, effectively reducing age spots, sun damage, and vascular lesions.
At Freyja Medical, we utilise these technologies to deliver targeted light energy that breaks down pigmentation and stimulates collagen production.
This enhances skin tone, texture, firmness, and elasticity.
Sculptra
Sculptra is an effective treatment for ageing hands, renowned for its collagen-stimulating properties.
At Freyja Medical, we use Sculptra to address key ageing concerns like skin thinning and volume loss. This poly-L-lactic acid injectable gradually boosts the skin’s collagen structure, restoring volume and enhancing resilience.
The result is smoother, youthful-looking hands with improved texture and less visible veins and tendons.
Microneedling
Microneedling is an effective treatment for ageing hands, targeting wrinkles, elasticity loss, and uneven tone.
At our clinic, we use microneedling to activate the skin’s healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production.
This process involves fine needles that create micro-punctures in the skin, promoting rejuvenation. It improves skin texture, firmness, and radiance.
HydraFacial
HydraFacial is an excellent choice for rejuvenating ageing hands, known for its cleansing, exfoliating, and hydrating effects.
At Freyja Medical, we use HydraFacial to improve dryness, texture, and dullness on the hands.
The treatment combines gentle exfoliation with nourishing serums that moisturise and strengthen the skin, enhancing its overall health and appearance. It also helps reduce age spots and fine lines.
Profhilo
Profhilo is an innovative treatment for ageing hands, celebrated for its hydrating and bio-remodeling properties.
At our clinic, we apply Profhilo to combat skin laxity and dryness. This hyaluronic acid-based treatment not only deeply hydrates but also boosts collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin quality.
The outcome is visibly smoother, firmer, and more radiant hands.
What are the signs of ageing hands?
Signs of ageing on the hands can become quite noticeable over time. Here are some common signs:
- Skin Thinning: As one ages, the skin on the hands becomes thinner and may appear more translucent. This is due to the loss of fat padding and collagen, making veins more prominent.
- Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Just like on the face, the hands develop wrinkles and fine lines, particularly on the back of the hands where the skin is thinner.
- Dryness and Rough Texture: Ageing skin tends to lose moisture and oils, leading to dryness and a rougher texture. This can be exacerbated by environmental exposure and washing.
- Age Spots and Hyperpigmentation: Often referred to as liver spots, these are flat, brown spots that occur due to prolonged exposure to UV radiation. They typically appear on areas most exposed to the sun.
- Loss of Volume: Over time, the hands lose volume, making bones, tendons, and veins more visible. This can give the hands a bony appearance.
Decreased Elasticity: The skin may also lose its elasticity with age, which can make it feel looser. - Fragility and Bruising: Older skin bruises more easily due to thinner blood vessel walls and reduced skin thickness.
To care for ageing hands, regular moisturising, protection from the sun with SPF, and treatments like hand creams containing retinol, hyaluronic acid, or glycolic acid can be beneficial. Professional treatments such as fillers, peels, and laser therapy may also help improve the appearance of ageing hands.
Can you reverse the signs of ageing hands?
While aging in hands cannot be fully reversed, there are several treatments and practices that can help improve the appearance of aging hands:
- Moisturising: Regularly moisturising your hands can help improve skin hydration and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Sun protection: Applying sunscreen to your hands daily can help prevent further sun damage and reduce the appearance of age spots and skin discoloration.
- Topical treatments: Products containing ingredients like retinoids, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid can help improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
- Procedures: Dermatological procedures such as chemical peels, laser therapy, microneedling, and dermal fillers can be used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, and volume loss in the hands.
- Hand exercises: Regularly performing hand exercises can help improve muscle tone and maintain hand strength and dexterity.
While these interventions can help mitigate the signs of aging in hands, it’s important to consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional to determine the most suitable approach for your specific concerns.
