Hands are a part of the body that undoubtedly attracts attention. Therefore, in order for them to remain an asset, they should be well-groomed and smooth. Unfortunately, the skin on the hands is exposed to negative factors every day. We use our hands to perform a great many activities, and some of them require our skin to make considerable sacrifices. Without proper care, the delicate skin on the hands quickly undergoes aging and becomes dry.
What is hand mesotherapy?
A proven way to regenerate and nourish the skin is hand mesotherapy. It’s a minimally invasive procedure that involves directly injecting various nutrients into the skin, making it hydrated and smooth. With good care, the effects last for up to twelve to twenty-four months. The treatment can be repeated any number of times. In addition, messotherapy of the hands protects the skin from sunlight, frost, wind and other atmospheric factors. During the mesotherapy treatment, the doctor can inject properly selected nourishing ingredients into the skin of the hands, such as Filorga’s NCTF 135, Princess Rich, Aquashine BTX, Skinbooster, or mesolift. Hyaluronic acid hand mesotherapy is great for dry and sensitive skin, scars or wrinkles. The acid is a chemical compound, naturally occurring in all organisms. It is a painless procedure and takes only a dozen minutes. The effects last from a year and a half, up to two years. Mesotherapy treatment with fibrin eliminates wrinkles, sagging skin and discoloration on the hands. Nine to eighteen milliliters of blood are drawn immediately before the procedure. Fibrin is previously extracted from the patient’s blood through a centrifugation process, so the risk of intolerance and allergic reactions is excluded. It is a completely safe method that induces natural regeneration and revitalization processes in the hands.

What does a hand mesotherapy treatment look like?
Before the messotherapy treatment of the hands, the area to be treated is determined. The type of mesotherapy is selected depending on the age, condition of the skin and its needs. The doctor thoroughly disinfects and cleanses the hands, and applies anesthetic cream. Using thin needles, selected substances with healing and revitalizing effects are injected into the intradermal layer, that is, to a depth of about one to two millimeters. After the procedure, slight swelling may occur, but it disappears spontaneously.
Contraindications to mesotherapy treatment.
First of all, the patient should consult with the doctor whether he can be a candidate for the procedure. Hand needle mesotherapy is not indicated for people with diabetes and cancer. Pregnant women and patients who use medications that reduce blood clotting cannot benefit from the procedure. Any skin infections will also be a contraindication.
How to take care of the condition of the hands on a daily basis?
The skin on the hands has very few sebaceous glands and produces a small amount of sebum. Therefore, the hands, deprived of natural lubrication, often dry out and become rough. This is a part of the body that needs proper treatments like hand mesotherapy and moisturizing creams like no other. Hand creams must not contain silicones, dyes and parabens, which can harm the skin by causing an allergic reaction. A good lotion composition can measure:
- coconut oil, which regenerates, moisturizes and protects the skin of the hands from external factors,
- shea butter, with nourishing and moisturizing properties,
- sage, with sweat-reducing properties and anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects,
- aloe vera, which effectively soothes skin irritation,
- argan oil, which regenerates and rejuvenates the skin and reduces discoloration.
Hands need special hydration in autumn and winter. That’s when they are exposed to frost, cold wind and sudden temperature changes. That’s why you should always wear gloves on cold days and use creams that contain vitamins A and E and urea. In summer, on the other hand, hands need a filter that protects against harmful UV rays. This will help avoid unwanted discoloration of the skin.
Conclusion
Hand care matters more than most realize. Exposure to daily stress ages and dries your skin. Hand mesotherapy offers an effective solution, delivering hydration, nourishment, and rejuvenation. This procedure protects against environmental damage and provides long-lasting results. If you’re not a candidate for mesotherapy, focus on daily care with high-quality, nourishing creams. Your hands are always visible—keep them smooth, healthy, and youthful with proper care tailored to their needs.
