I have the worst aged looking hands on the planet. I'm only 27 years old but my hands looks like a creepy. I noticed my hands were aging when I was about 21 yrs old. They are very wrinkled, dry and dark. There is also a line where the darkness and wrinkles start. I've tried every thing from suncreen to oils, gloves at night, lactic acid peel, oils again, collegen pills, creams, moisturizers I MEAN EVERYTHING. What's is this? Is there any type of cosmetic surgery I can get? Was I cursed as a kid

Answer: Hand Rejuvenation -- Fat Injections/PRP, Radiesse/Belotero, Fraxel You have a few options. Hands can be improved with fillers very easily, and I love combining this with fraxel laser to tighten and improve texture. Belotero and Radiesse give natural looking results. More permanently you can have fat injected and/or even sclerotherapy of the hand veins. I suggest seeing a cosmetic dermatologist with expertise in hand rejuvenation to go over the recommended timeline. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Dark, old hands Thank you for your question. Hand rejuvenation has gained in popularity over the past several years. The hand age in a similar process to the face, or other parts of the body. Your main complaint seems to be one of skin texture and coloration. I would look into any potential allergen that you may come in contact with that could be contributing to the dryness. Many components of our daily life contain pigments, fragrances, or dyes that can cause a skin reaction including any products that may contain latex. Avoiding these exposures may be a good first step. I would start with a topical regimen that is retinol based with a good quality moisturizer. I really like the ZO products, and recommend them. You can consider injection with a filler such as Radiesse, but volume loss should not be the main issue in someone your age. Best of luck!
