Hands are constantly exposed to the elements and the damaging effects of environmental aggressors all year round, making them especially vulnerable to the premature signs of ageing. Dr Sebagh and his team of doctors offer a full range of specialist, Ageing-Maintenance treatments in the clinic that are expertly targeted to treat the visible signs of ageing on the hands.

The most common factors affecting the appearance of the hands are as follows:

Pigment deposition caused by any or a combination of the following: solar damage, the natural ageing process, and post-trauma.

Textural changes due to structural change, including lower collagen and elastin levels.

Volumetric change due to loss of subcutaneous fat.

Osseus change: osteoarthritic changes causing deformities and loss of range of movement.

In the Dr Sebagh London Clinic, Dr Diana Piana-Mariton uses IPL, Fraxel Re:Store and RadioFrequency with Microneedling to treat pigment and enhance collagen and elastin in the skin of the hands

Volume replacement can be treated using different types of fillers including Ellanse, a long lasting totally bio resolvable pcl which induces a natural collagen restoration, and Dr Piana-Mariton reports excellent results on hands with PRP + peptides.

Please see their individual treatment pages for more information.

The Ageing-Maintenance Treatments for hands are much the same as those used to treat ageing on the face. However, it is important to note that treatments can be slightly more painful on the hands due to the proximity of bony structures and nerve endings.

Downtime is minimal but to ensure maximum results daily application of skincare is recommended. Moisturise with High Maintenance Hand Cream. mix with a small amount of Pure Vitamin C Powder Cream to prevent and reduce pigmentation or Rose de Vie Serum for dry hands. Always apply SPF to the hands and exfoliate weekly to boost skin cell turnover.
