While many people focus on facial treatments, one of the hallmarks of aging is volume loss in the hands. At 42 West Medical Aesthetics, we offer hand filler treatments to restore that lost volume and give your hands a youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

Am I a Good Candidate for Hand Filler?

If you have mild to moderate skin laxity, also known as “loose skin,” you could be an excellent candidate for hand rejuvenation. Most clients are suitable for this treatment, but the current condition of your skin is important to evaluate. To determine if you’re a good candidate, we recommend scheduling an in-office consultation where we can assess your skin and discuss your goals.

What to Expect During the Treatment:

  • Before the procedure, we will apply a specialized topical numbing cream to the backs of your hands for 20 to 30 minutes to ensure your comfort.
  • The injections themselves take approximately 10 to 20 minutes.
  • After injecting the filler, we massage each hand to evenly distribute the product for smooth, natural results.

Is the Treatment Painful?

We strive to ensure your comfort throughout the treatment. Here’s how we minimize any discomfort:

  • A customized numbing cream is applied for 20-30 minutes before the procedure.
  • The filler we use contains lidocaine, an anesthetic that further enhances comfort during the injections.

Are There Side Effects?

The most common side effects include:

  • Temporary bruising, swelling, and tenderness, which can last for up to 1-2 weeks.
  • To reduce these effects, we recommend limiting strenuous physical activity involving your hands for 24-48 hours after the treatment.
  • You can also minimize bruising by avoiding certain medications and supplements, such as baby aspirin and fish oil, prior to the procedure.

How Long Do Results Last?

Results are immediate and can last up to 1 year, with some clients seeing results that last even longer.
