Hand Rejuvenation: 5 Powerful Reasons to Restore Youthful-Looking Hands with Dr. Alexa

As we age, the hands are among the first areas to reveal time, yet they are often neglected despite constant exposure to sun and the elements. The result can be hands that look older than the face, with visible veins and tendons, volume loss and crepey skin. Hand rejuvenation with Radiesse restores volume, smooths texture and brings back youthful contours.

Radiesse is a dermal filler made of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres in a smooth gel. Unlike traditional hyaluronic-acid fillers that mainly add volume, it also stimulates your own collagen — providing immediate correction while building firmer, plumper skin over the following weeks and months.

Injected into the back of the hands, it immediately plumps the skin to conceal veins and tendons, while the CaHA particles stimulate collagen for long-lasting improvement. Dr Alexa uses microcannula techniques for balanced, subtle results; treatment takes around 20–30 minutes with minimal downtime.

Its advantages include a dual action of volume plus collagen stimulation, long-lasting results of up to 12–18 months, a natural feel once settled, and minimal downtime. Beyond the hands, Radiesse is versatile for the lower face, cheeks and — in hyperdiluted form as a skin booster — the neck, décolletage, arms, knees and abdomen.

A treatment begins with a consultation to assess your hands, skin and goals, followed by injection via a fine cannula and gentle moulding for smooth, natural contours. Mild swelling or bruising usually settles within a few days; we advise avoiding strenuous hand use and sun exposure for 24–48 hours.
