Hand Rejuvenation in Seoul: Restore Volume and Even Tone to Ageing Hands
Hands show age through thin skin, visible veins and tendons, and sun spots. A dermatologist restores volume with fillers or collagen stimulators and clears pigmentation with laser for smoother, more even hands.
What is the best treatment for ageing hands?
The most effective hand rejuvenation combines a volume treatment — hyaluronic acid filler or a collagen stimulator such as Sculptra — with pico or toning laser for age spots. Volume results are visible right away with filler, or build over 2–3 months with collagen stimulators.
Concerns we treat
Signs of ageing on the hands
Most hands benefit from treating both volume and colour.
Volume loss
Thin skin exposing veins and tendons; restored with filler or Sculptra.
Age and sun spots
Brown spots cleared with pico or Q‑switched laser; see brown spots.
Crepey texture
Fine wrinkles improved with skin boosters.
Rough skin
Gentle chemical peels refresh the surface.
Uneven tone
Laser toning evens out blotchy colour.
Dryness
Barrier care and moisturising routine.
How it works
Volume plus colour correction
Filler or collagen stimulators are injected under the skin of the back of the hand to soften the look of veins and tendons. Laser treatments target pigment to clear age spots.
- Day 1: filler or stimulator injection
- Days 1–3: mild swelling settles
- Weeks 2–4: laser for spots begins
- Months 2–3: collagen‑stimulator results build
