If you’ve seen our page about sagging, loose, and aging skin, then you’re probably well aware of the common effects of aging. The skin tends to lose its integrity, leading to many unwanted cosmetic changes to the face and body, and the hands can be one of the most susceptible areas to this! Wrinkles and veins tend to show more prominently as the structure of our skin, fat, and muscle tissues becomes less robust with age. Although this is most common in older age groups, there are many factors that can accelerate the process such as diet, lifestyle, and genetics. Luckily, there are advanced solutions to aging hands that are on par with facial treatments.
As we get older, many changes happen in our body. Most notably, we see a steep decline in collagen production, fat tissues tend to lose their volume, our muscles weaken, our bone density decreases, and more. All of these play a part in the loosening and thinning of the hands’ skin with age. Less collagen in the skin causes the skin to lose its elasticity. Lower fat volume leads to thinning of the tissues and enhanced visibility of the veins. Weaker muscles can lead to looser skin, and worsening the sign of aging hands. Although many of these factors continue as we age, there are great multimodality treatments to reverse the aging process and create more youthful hands.
At Brandish Clinic, we generally utilize the Lumenis IPL, chemical peels, and/or specialized dermal fillers.
The Luminous IPL system makes a great treatment for aging skin on the hands. It uses special wavelengths of intense pulsed light to target deep skin layers and break down compromised collagen, while stimulating the production of new collagen, giving the skin a tightened and refreshed look. This procedure is primarily used for the reversal of sun damage and skin rejuvenation, but it has the added benefit of collagen stimulation with each treatment that can lead to long-lasting skin reinvigoration.
Jessner’s Chemical Peel can also be used to help peel away the outer layer of skin, evening out the tone and the former wrinkles as the skin works to naturally heal itself. The result is smoother, more youthful hands.
Dermal Fillers help to increase volume in a given treatment area, including the face and the hands. They also help increase hydration in these areas, smoothing wrinkles and restoring volume. Importantly, most dermal fillers, such as Radiesse can act as a ‘scaffold’ to encourage your body to more efficiently build fresh collagen, leading to long-lasting, increased structural support, turning back the clock on your hands.
To start, you and Dr. Brandish will develop an individualized treatment plan to determine what treatment may be most effective for your individual case.
Treatment expectations will vary heavily depending on which modality is used. We encourage you to check out the above links to each potential treatment, where you’ll find a description of what to expect for each individual treatment.
Our skin and the surrounding tissues tend to lose their strength and structure with age as collagen is produced less and less. This tends to lead to wrinkles, looseness, thinning of skin, and more pronounced bones and veins. Excessive sun exposure, diet, lifestyle, genetics, etc. can also contribute to the acceleration of this process, causing some to experience the aging effects on their hands at varying ages. From skin rejuvenation procedures with intense pulsed light with added benefit of collagen stimulation, to Dermal fillers or chemical peels, many treatments are available to turn back the clock.

I originally started seeing a different beauty doctor in San Diego, but I was not satisfied with my results. I also didn't like the fact that he didn't give much input andI stop going there. Then I found Dr. Brandish's office and I gave it a try. My first visit with Dr. Brandish was very pleasant, she asked what I was looking for and she gave me her opinion on that would work best. I was very happy with my results with dysport fillers. I have been coming to Dr. Brandish Clinic for five years. I highly recommend Dr. Brandish Clinic.
I have been going to Brandish clinic for a few years. She always does an excellent job and knows just how to make me feel and look better. She never over does my treatments and makes me look natural. She always works with me to make me my best self. I would and do highly recommend Brandish Clinic for Botox for any facial rejuvenation you may interested in. Check out her specials on her website.
What a wonderful and relaxing experience for Botox. Men who want to stay more youthful looking need to see Dr. Brandish, she is a true artist. Very relaxing office and she is an expert at discussing treatment options. This is my third visit and I plan on seeing her for my regular follow up visits as well.
I have been going to Dr. Brandish for over a year and completely trust her. She listens to what I want and I always love the results. Her prices are competitive. I wouldn't risk going to anyone else. I was initially referred by a friend and learned later of so many more of my friends that go to her. They all look amazing ! You won't be disappointed. I recommend Dr. Brandish with confidence !
I love love love this clinic. Dr. Brandish is a perfectionist and I always leave feeling youthful and very happy with my results. I've had Botox and fillers with other doctors and she has had to fix the mistakes. I only go to her as of 2017. Also, when I walk in, I'm always greeted with a smile and professional attitude from her receptionist Brenda.
