Dehydrated and wrinkled hands. What can I do about this condition?

Question

I'm 19 year old and my hands are very scaly, dry and wrinkled. It is also a little tanned. Would it be helpful if I try a chemical peel for my hands ? If yes could you please suggest which one and if no then what am I supposed to do about this condition ?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

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. .
