Hands Filler – Dr Fariha Anwar

WHAT ARE HAND FILLERS?

Hand fillers are a simple cosmetic treatment used to make hands look younger and smoother. As we age, the skin on our hands becomes thin and veins or bones start to show more. Fillers are injected under the skin to add volume, making the hands look fuller and less wrinkled.

These fillers are usually made from substances like hyaluronic acid, such as Juvederm or Restylane. The procedure is quick, with little downtime, and results can be seen almost immediately. The effects are temporary but can last several months to over a year.

WHERE CAN HAND FILLER BE USED?

Hand fillers are specifically used on the back (top) of the hands, which is the area most affected by aging. This is where skin becomes thin, and veins, tendons, and bones start to show more clearly. Fillers are injected here to add volume, smooth out wrinkles, and give the hands a softer, more youthful look.

They are not used on the palms or fingers. Instead, treatments focus only on the upper hand area using fillers like Juvederm or Restylane to safely improve appearance without affecting hand movement.

SAFETY CONCERNS

Hand fillers, just like other dermal fillers carry the same level of risk but again, are an overlooked treatment which is why many people may not be as familiar about its side effects, if they experience any at all. Slight bruising and swelling can occur at the injection site, asymmetry – where on side may be better treated than the other but this is usually down to the patient being asymmetrical to begin with, blood vessel blockage and need for further treatment – it may take more than just one syringe to achieve the desired, plump results.

FAQ

Hands Filler Treatment

Why do hands age and how can fillers help?

The hands lose volume and fat with age, making veins and tendons more visible and the skin looks loose and crepey. Dermal fillers are injected into the back of the hands to restore lost volume, smooth the skin, and give a more youthful appearance.

How long do hand fillers last?

Hand fillers typically last 9–12 months, sometimes longer. Hands are an area of constant movement, which can affect longevity. Results can be maintained with periodic top-up treatments.

Is the hand filler treatment painful?

A numbing cream is applied before the treatment to minimise discomfort. The filler also contains a local anaesthetic, making the process quite comfortable. Mild bruising or swelling may occur for a few days post-treatment.

Are hand fillers safe? Are there side effects?

Yes, hand fillers using hyaluronic acid are very safe. Common side effects are temporary and include mild swelling, bruising, and redness. In the rare event you are unhappy with the result, the filler can be dissolved.
