Ageing & Sun-Damaged Hands

Our hands are one of the first areas to reveal our true age. Constant sun exposure leads to sun spots (solar lentigines) and a loss of collagen, resulting in thin, “crepey,” and discolored skin.

At Daisy Dermal Clinic, we believe rejuvenation shouldn’t stop at the face. Our approach is to create a multi-technology clinical pathway that targets both the pigment and the texture of the hands, restoring a smooth, clear, and youthful appearance.

Hand Rejuvenation

A Dermal Therapist-Led Protocol for Youthful, Elegant Hands

Our treatment philosophy is based on diagnosis before prescription. To effectively rejuvenate the hands, we must first assess the primary concern—whether it’s brown spots, thin skin, or a combination of both. This is how we build your path to elegant, age-defying hands.

Understanding Your Hand-Ageing Concerns

• Sun Spots (Solar Lentigines): Defined brown marks caused by years of UV exposure.

• Thin, “Crepey” Skin: Loss of dermal thickness and elasticity, making veins and tendons more prominent.

• Uneven Tone: A combination of redness and pigmentation.

THE DAISY CLINICAL PATHWAY

Your journey to revitalized hands begins with a Bespoke Skin Consultation ($80 – redeemable). We will design a program combining our gold-standard technologies. Our protocols include:

1. To Remove Sun Spots & Pigmentation:

• Candela Alexandrite Laser: Our primary tool for erasing brown spots. The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment, causing it to form a micro-crust and flake off within 7-10 days, revealing clear skin underneath.

2. To Rebuild Collagen & Thickness:

• Sylfirm X RF Microneedling: We use a specialized hand protocol to deliver RF heat deep into the dermis, stimulating a powerful collagen response. This thickens the skin, improves texture, and reduces the appearance of fine lines.

• Dermapen 4 Medical Needling: An excellent option for refining texture and infusing hydrating, regenerative serums like Exosomes.

3. To Brighten & Protect:

• Clinical Glow Peels (Lactic/TCA): A gentle resurfacing treatment to accelerate cell turnover and restore a bright, uniform tone to the hands.

4. Prescribed Homecare (Circadia):

To protect your investment, we will prescribe a targeted regimen including Retinoids to continue building collagen and a high-factor SPF 50+, which must be applied to your hands every single day.

Frequently Asked Questions

The skin on the back of our hands is naturally very thin and has very little underlying fat. Furthermore, our hands are exposed to UV rays constantly—especially while driving on the Coast—and endure constant washing and harsh sanitizers. This combination leads to rapid collagen breakdown, deep pigmentation, and a "crepey" texture.

Our Candela Alexandrite laser is specifically attracted to the excess melanin (pigment) in your sun spots. It delivers a fast, highly targeted pulse of energy that shatters the pigment without damaging the surrounding healthy tissue.

Immediately after the laser session, the brown spots will look darker, almost like coffee grounds. Over the next 7 to 14 days, this shattered pigment will form a micro-crust and naturally flake off as you wash your hands, revealing fresh, clear, and even-toned skin underneath.

Crepey skin is caused by a lack of collagen. Sylfirm X uses precise robotic microneedling to deliver Radio Frequency heat deep into the dermal layer of your hands. This thermal energy acts as a wake-up call, forcing your body to synthesize a thick, new layer of collagen and elastin, structurally firming the skin from the inside out.

We believe in absolute clinical honesty. While Sylfirm X will significantly thicken the skin—which helps to slightly camouflage the underlying structures—it does not replace the volume (fat) lost through the natural aging process. Our treatments will make your skin spotless, smoother, and firmer, but they are not a substitute for volume-restoring dermal fillers.

Yes! Because hand aging is rarely just one issue, we often utilize a dual-modality approach. We can customize a program that alternates between clearing the surface pigment with the Cynosure laser and rebuilding the deep dermal thickness with Sylfirm X.

This depends on your primary concern. For surface sun spots, clients typically see a dramatic clearance in just 1 to 2 laser sessions. For structural changes like tightening crepey skin with Sylfirm X, the body requires more time to build collagen, so we recommend a course of 3 to 4 sessions spaced one month apart.

The downtime is very minimal and entirely manageable. For laser pigment removal, your hands will look slightly red, and the spots will be dark and crusty for about a week. For Sylfirm X, you may experience mild swelling and redness for 24 to 48 hours. You can drive and use your hands normally, but you must avoid sun exposure and harsh chemicals during the healing phase.

Absolutely. Treating your hands in the clinic but neglecting them at home is like going to the dentist but never brushing your teeth. To protect your financial investment, we will prescribe a targeted Circadia regimen, including tyrosinase inhibitors to prevent new pigment from forming, and a strict daily SPF 50+ protocol.
