Hand filler is a cosmetic procedure aimed at rejuvenating the appearance of the hands by restoring lost volume, smoothing wrinkles, and reducing the prominence of veins and tendons due to age-related volume loss. In this treatment, dermal fillers are injected, such as hyaluronic acid, which is naturally found in the body. These fillers are injected into the areas on the back of the hands where volume has decreased, effectively plumping the skin and giving the hands a youthful appearance.
This treatment suits individuals who notice aging signs on their hands and want to achieve a younger look without surgery. Results from hand filler injections are visible almost immediately after the procedure, with optimal results visible after the fillers have settled within a few days. Depending on individual factors such as skin type and lifestyle, the effects can last up to 18 months.
