Often times our hands give away our age. Like our faces, the back of our hands lose volume as we age. Great effort is made to rejuvenate the face, but patients will state that their hands “look so old that they give my age away”. There is a new break through treatment that restores a younger appearance to hands. The injectable filler Radiesse is being used (off label) to replace lost volume in the hands. The procedure takes about 15 minutes to perform in the office. Patients are very satisfied with the results that last up to one and a half years. For patients who desire a more permanent treatment, the old standard of fat transfer to the hands is available.
