Fat Transfer to the Back of the Hands

Our hands are among the first parts of us to show visible and dramatic signs of aging. Our hands give away our age just as much as our faces do. Signs of aging on the face are the first things anyone notices about a person. But our hands are also prominent features. After the face and neck, they are perhaps the most visible and public parts of our bodies. For this reason, we offer our patients a full range of hand rejuvenation treatments to restore their hands to their youthful appearance.

Aging Hands

The human hand undergoes the ravages of aging in much the same way the face does. The soft tissue in the hands, which gives them their volumizing appearance, gradually depletes as we age, leaving the veins, tendons, and bones hidden in our youth more prominent and visible. The skin of the hands, like that on the face, becomes looser and more wrinkled as we age. It also receives as much sun exposure as the face, and are nearly always less protected. As a result, they suffer from pigmentation issues and textural problems in age.

Hand Rejuvenation Treatments

While our hands may suffer in the same as our faces, they can be treated with a variety of hand rejuvenation treatments. There are a number of ways we can give your hands their youthful volume back, improve your skin’s texture and tone, and lessen sun damage and age spots. Fat transfer is one of those treatments that lead to long-lasting results.

How Long Does The Fat Last And How Many Treatments Are Necessary?

Fat transfers can be necessary to do once or up to three times, depending on how much of the fat that is transferred lives or takes. With each subsequent treatment, more of the fat survives as there is more live tissue to help support the newly injected fat cells. The fat transfer is long-lasting and can be permanent with stable body weight.

Can I be awake for the procedure?

The fat transfer to the hands procedure is typically done awake in the office under local anesthesia.

When it comes to the recovery time associated with the transfer of fat, many different factors could apply. Recovery times could vary depending on the patient, as well as the extent of the procedure. Typically, healing takes around a week.

Fat transfers to the hand are possible when undergoing injections from a surgeon. A surgeon will make incisions on the back of the hand in order to inject fat calls into the hand. A massage will then be performed to help the fat cells settle into the hand and create a smooth finish.
