I'm developing crepey skin on my hands and elbows and front of upper thighs. I've had Radiesse and a fraxel dual treatment on my hands with no improvement in the crepiness or loss of elasticity. Since I don't understand what makes skin crepey, can it be fixed? Is there a permanent solution?
Answer: Crepey skin, especially hands, elbows, and front of thighs, is difficult to help.

Answer: Recommend doing a Melapeel too help reduce appearance of crepey skin Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Answer: Renuva Rejuvenation Thanks for question. Hand rejuvenation depends on the patient. So, I would recommend a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine the best course of treatment. But generally, I like to inject Renuva into the hands to help add volume that was lost with age. Renuva is a scaffold that signals to your body to deposit a small layer of fat to the hands. Once your fat settles in this location, it is there for life! Good luck!

Answer: Creepy skin I wish there was a single, reliable, permanent solution to crepey skin. The best interventions are...1. Sunscreen. Meticulous sunscreen is important to prevent worsening of skin texture. 2. Collagen stimulating treatments like injectable PDO threads, Ultherapy (ultrasound), and peels. Unfortunately there are no permanent treatments, only treatments that can improve things for 6-12 months.

Answer: Anti-ageing: no permanent fix As a rule, there are no permanent fixes when it comes to combating the signs of ageing. Some treatments, like botulinum toxins and fillers, do have effects which wear off over a period of time. Others, like laser treatments, trigger a response from the body to regenerate and repair. Ageing and ongoing exposure to uv, pollutants and gravity continue regardless. Your best bet is to maximise your uv protection, use retinol in your skin care and consider any additional treatments as add-on.Run if someone promises a permanent cure.

Answer: Crepey Skin Treatment The simple answer is to an extent, yes, you can reverse some but not all of the aging process.As you age, skin cells lose their ability to make collagen and progressively die off rather than reproducing themselves (“DNA programmed cell death with age”).The Sciton Laser Platform allows multiple laser types and wavelengths to achieve both dramatic improvements of your skin but also maintaining its youthful appearance by reversing this process. For more information see the below link.
