At Pure Medspa, we often discuss facial rejuvenation, but another area frequently goes overlooked, even though it can just as easily reveal your age: your hands.
Many clients ask us how to make their hands look younger once they notice changes like age spots, wrinkles, and visible veins. The good news is you don’t have to settle for aging hands. With today’s advanced rejuvenation treatments, we can restore volume, improve skin tone, and help your hands look as young as you feel.
Why Your Hands Age Faster Than You Think
Constant exposure to the elements, especially sunlight, is one of the biggest culprits behind premature aging. Unlike your face, your hands have fewer oil glands and less fat padding, making them prone to dryness, thinning skin, and volume loss. Repetitive washing, environmental exposure, and the natural aging process all play a role in aging the hands.
The Telltale Signs of Aging Hands
Unfortunately, once you start noticing them, the signs of hand aging are hard to ignore:
- Loss of volume: Veins and tendons become more prominent as the hands lose underlying fat.
- Age spots: Sun exposure can lead to pigmentation, also known as sunspots or liver spots.
- Wrinkles and crepey texture: The skin thins and loses elasticity over time.
These changes make your hands look older than the rest of you, especially when you’ve invested in treatments such as ContourTRL™ and MOXI® to slow facial aging.
Hand Rejuvenation Treatments That Work
When you’re ready for a hands-on rejuvenation approach, we’ve got you covered! We offer several effective solutions to restore a youthful appearance to your hands. Depending on your concerns, we may recommend one or more of the following treatments:
Hyperdilute Sculptra® Aesthetic
Hyperdilute Sculptra Aesthetic is an advanced injectable treatment that restores youthful volume and improves skin quality in aging hands. When strategically injected, this collagen-stimulating filler helps plump thinning skin, reducing the appearance of veins, tendons, and wrinkles that become more prominent with age. The hyperdiluted formula spreads more evenly, allowing for subtle, natural-looking results while gradually improving skin texture and firmness over time. This offers a refreshed, more youthful appearance to the hands with minimal downtime and long-lasting benefits.

Laser & Light-Based Hand Treatments
If pigmentation and texture changes are your top concerns, our light and energy-based therapies may be the best option for fading sunspots and brightening the skin. Laser resurfacing treatments target deeper wrinkles and roughness.
We typically recommend:
- HALO® laser skin rejuvenation for diminishing sun damage and unsightly age spots for clearer, younger-looking hands.
- BBL® HEROic™ and Forever Young BBL® treatments for pinpointing and reducing pigmentation concerns such as age spots while improving the veiny, vulnerable, thin skin on your hands.
Both treatments encourage new collagen production, which helps thicken the skin and improve overall texture and tone over time.
Patients seeking an easy, tried-and-true alternative to fillers or lasers may also benefit from chemical peels to gently exfoliate and brighten the “tired” skin on dull, aging hands. Our skilled providers customize treatment to your goals and skin condition to ensure safe, natural-looking results.
What to Expect From Treatment: Downtime, Results & Maintenance
Most hand rejuvenation treatments at Pure Medspa require little to no downtime—a significant perk for our busy patients. Fillers produce instant results, while light and laser therapies offer gradual improvements over several sessions. Maintenance typically includes occasional touch-ups and sun protection to preserve your results. We’ll work with you to create a realistic, long-term plan based on your needs, budget, and lifestyle. Many of our patients finance their treatments to spread payments out over several months.
Stop Neglecting Your Hands
If you’ve diligently invested in facial aesthetics, don’t let your hands reveal your age! Hand rejuvenation complements your overall look, helping you feel confident in every wave, handshake, or gesture. To keep your hands looking youthful, follow these simple yet effective tips:
- Apply daily sun protection to prevent age spots and thinning skin
- Use high-quality moisturizers and nourishing skin care products
- Choose gentle soaps to avoid stripping the skin’s natural barrier
- Avoid smoking, which accelerates collagen breakdown and leads to a crepey texture
- Maintain a balanced diet to support skin health from within
Regular touch-up treatments at our med spa can help preserve smooth, supple hands that match your refreshed, radiant appearance.
