Recently, women (and sometimes men) are increasingly turning to specialized clinics to rejuvenate the skin of the hands. This is not surprising, because it is the hands are considered to be the calling card of any of us. In the area of the hands, the skin is very thin, it contains few sebaceous glands, it is constantly exposed to an aggressive environment. Do not forget about the harmful effects of household chemicals. And after all so it is unpleasant, when the skin of brushes of hands creates sharp dissonance with the well-groomed smooth person.
Already from 30-35 years young women notice the first signs of aging. The skin becomes drier, its color deteriorates, wrinkles and pigmentation appear. And during the onset of menopause, there are pronounced signs of deficiency of fatty tissue and even skin atrophy in the area of brushes. What are the methods of correction and rejuvenation of the skin of the hands? There are quite a few of them.
Possibilities of modern dermatocosmetology
There are three main types of techniques for skin rejuvenation. Each of them is appointed by a specialist, based on the patient's age and state of health, the condition of his skin, the presence of already performed rejuvenation and other factors.
1) Hardware methods - laser skin rejuvenation, phototherapy, microdermabrasion;
2) Injection methods - mesotherapy and biorevitalization;
3) Chemical peeling (glycolic, TCA, retinoic, phenolic).
Separately applied lipofilling - a method that changes the appearance of the rear of the hands by replenishing the deficiency of lost subcutaneous fat.
Laser rejuvenation of brushes
The essence of the method is the controlled destruction of the old collagen and elastin by microscopic patches, leaving intact tissue around them. Viable cells of untouched areas subsequently ensure a rapid recovery of this zone. During the procedure, the integrity of the skin is not disturbed, the risk of infection is completely absent. For one such procedure is a recovery of 25-30% of the skin on the treated area. Gradually, after several procedures, the old collagen layer is replaced with a new one, fine wrinkles are smoothed out, the skin of the hands becomes elastic, and the hands themselves acquire a fresh appearance and look younger. The course consists of 3-4 procedures with an interval of a month.
Peeling, mesotherapy and photoprocedures
All sorts of chemical peels are also effective and safe. Depending on the patient's history, various drugs-TCA, retinoids or phenol in low concentration can be used. Retinoic peeling is well tolerated, during the recovery period, large-scale scaling is observed. Mandatory use of means for post-peeling care. They eliminate the feeling of contraction and accelerate the process of skin regeneration. When photoaging and a large number of foci of hyperpigmentation, it is better to use a combined composition for peeling. In addition to retinoic acid, it contains salicylic, kojic and lactic acids involved in the synthesis of melanin.
At the very first signs of aging, you can limit yourself to peeling on the basis of natural glycolic acid. The course of 3-4 procedures renews the gentle upper layer of the skin of the hands, stimulates the natural synthesis of collagen, and also promotes deep hydration of the skin. The scheme of application of chemical peelings can vary. The cosmetologist, depending on the indications, can conduct a separate course of monopilings or alternate several peelings of different mechanisms of action and chemical formulas.
Mesotherapy is an intradermal injection and serves as a means of delivering small doses of liquefied therapeutic cocktails to the tissue. Based on a specific problem, such groups of drugs can be used:
1) drugs of vascular action - effective in violation of microcirculation of the skin of hands;
2) amino acids (glycine, glutamine, arginine, cysteine);
3) multivitamin complexes;
4) various regenerants (hyaluronic acid, glycosaminoglycan, chondroitin sulfate, etc.)
Sessions of therapeutic-aesthetic mesotherapy are conducted in 7-8 procedures, one every 5-7 days.
When hyperpigmentation of the skin of hands, experts recommend taking a photoprocedure course. Phototherapy is the effect on the skin of the hands of selective pulsed light. The number of sessions is up to five, and the effect is visible right after the procedure. First, the area of hyperpigmentation darkens, then insignificant peeling is allowed. But in general, the security of all of the above methods is guaranteed.
