After a certain age, women will start showing signs of aging in the back of their hands. These changes mostly consist of a loss of soft tissue volume. This loss leads to the appearance of large subcutaneous veins and extensor tendons on the back of the hands. Most energy is placed on restoring facial youth. Still, restoring hand youthfulness can be a low hanging fruit that can also increase confidence and self-esteem.
These changes have been addressed in the past with fillers or fat grafting. Yet a new choice is now available using adipose tissue matrix injections. This product is called Renuva and is provided by MTF Biologics.
An injection of this matrix into the subcutaneous space of the hands has a regeneration effect. It promotes the formation of new extracellular matrix and vessels. It also has a volumization effect by promoting adipogenesis or the creation of new fat cells. This can restore the fullness lost by aging.
A small bolus injection into the back of the hand will have an early volumizing effect. The area is then gently massaged to spread the product. This effect is due to the volume injected. Still, the main effect will be visible months later as the regenerative and volumizing effects become visible.
Restoration of hand aesthetics can now be accomplished with a simple office procedure and can have long lasting effects.
