Are there any scars after hand rejuvenation procedures?
The possibility of scarring after hand rejuvenation procedures is very low. The majority of hand rejuvenation procedures are already skin tone equalization, that is, applications with scar removal effect.

However, there may be a minimal scarring in extreme cases and applications. These minimal scars can be made invisible in a short time as a result of sun protection and using care medications such as scar creams.
How long are hand rejuvenation procedures permanent?
How long hand rejuvenation procedures will be permanent is a situation that is shaped by many different factors, from the age of the patient to the method used. In patients younger than 35 – 40 years of age, that is, very young patients, the permanence of hand rejuvenation procedures can be very long-lasting due to the fact that the individual is already producing high levels of collagen.

How often should hand rejuvenation procedures be repeated?
How often hand rejuvenation procedures will be repeated varies depending on many factors such as the definition of the aesthetic hand appearance that the patient wants to achieve and age. For example, hand rejuvenation procedures may need to be performed several times a year in patients with advanced age, that is, patients who have very deep wrinkle problems that are easy to reduce collagen levels. However, patients who are young in age or who do not have major problems in the hand area can maintain their aesthetic hand appearance by using applications such as hand fillers every 1-2 years.
