Aged Hands
Say hello to smoother hands...
Hands are one of the most common parts of the body that rapidly age as they are always overworked. Aside from natural aging, old hands can be due to the fact that they are always exposed to different hand damaging factors. These factors affect our hands, and they gradually lose fat and elasticity that makes the skin on hands lose volume. This reduced volume and decreased elasticity produce translucent skin that wrinkles and develops age spots that can be pigmented. To treat this, we often use laser skin resurfacing, laser hyperpigmentation treatment, dermal fillers, biorevitalization, and use Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).
Treatment Options
Laser skin resurfacing is the gold standard therapy for skin smoothing and tightening. This non ablative fractional technology uses microbeams of energy to create areas of affected tissue that extend through the epidermis into the dermis. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to create new, healthy collagen. Best for: facial anti-ageing and resurfacing
What is Laser resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing has long been established as a safe and effective treatment for acne scars, traumatic scars, pigmentation, sun damage, enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven skin texture and stretch-marks. The principle of skin resurfacing is to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process to replace damaged skin with fresh, healthy, new skin.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy uses injections of a concentration of a patient’s own platelets to accelerate the healing of injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints. Particularly for the skin, as platelets are fortified by vitamins, and when they are injected into the skin, they can stimulate skin repair, can tighten, thicken, plump the skin, improve skin tone and texture, reduce signs of aging and treat pigmentation, scars, and stretch-marks. They contain growth factors that can trigger cell-reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration or healing in the treated area. PRP can also be enhanced with ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants to maximize the beneficial effects.
