Is Voluma used on hands? If so is it successful and is it the filler of choice, if not why not?

I have used Voluma for hand rejuvenation with great success. It works perfectly well in the appropriate individuals. Other options include Radiesse, Restylane Lyft, Juvederm Ultra Plus, etc. We often combine fillers with lasers or microneedling to also improve skin texture and pigmentation of the hands. More important that the choice of filler is the skill and experience of the injector. Make sure you see an experienced physician provider for an in-person consultation and evaluation to determine which treatments would be best for you. Best wishes.

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Voluma is not typically used for the hands and is also not FDA-approved for that area.

Dermatologists select a filler based on the patient’s needs and that particular filler’s qualities. I’ve used Voluma in the hands with beautiful results. It can last up to 18 months. However, it’s a thicker filler and may not always be appropriate for the hands. 
One of the nicest fillers to use for the hands — and the only one that has FDA approval for this indication — is Radiesse. It’s a thinner filler and therefore works best with the slight volume loss and thin skin that’s characteristic of aging hands. Be sure to consult a board-certified dermatologist who has experience with many different dermal fillers and can layer them, if necessary, to give you the most beautiful and rejuvenating outcome.
