Hello Doctors- I am a very fit 29 year old and I have always had extremely vascular hands. I am 5'8 130 lbs- very low body fat. I use zinc sunscreen daily and protect my hands from the sun even while driving. -Question: what should I do to improve my large veins? Especially when I am hot or workout they become larger. Should I do fillers in my hands or is there a safe way to do vein injections?

Answer: Treatment for large veins on the hands You posted the question of whether to use injection of Juvederm or injection of a sclerosing agent in the veins. The answer is either or both can be done but experience with the vein injections reveals that many time they will recur over time. Of course the Juvederm will wear off in time as well. Usually I recommend using Radiesse as the filler, injecting with a cannula, and if the veins remain prominent after the Radiesse, then they can be injected with Asclera foam, (which usually is not necessary).
