Hand Rejuvenation — How We Treat Sun Damage, Texture and Skin Thinness

Your hands say a lot — and they often show signs of ageing earlier than you’d expect. From sunspots and dryness to thinning skin and fine lines, hand ageing can feel difficult to manage with over-the-counter products alone.

At Platinum Cosmetics, we treat hand rejuvenation with the same level of care as the face — using safe, non-surgical treatments to restore brightness, texture and firmness.

What Causes Ageing in the Hands?

The skin on the hands is exposed to:

  • Daily UV radiation (even when driving or walking)

  • Repeated handwashing, which weakens the skin barrier

  • Friction from tools, exercise, and daily movement

  • Natural loss of collagen and fat over time

This often leads to:

  • Prominent veins and bones

  • Sunspots or pigmentation

  • Thinning, crepey texture

  • General dullness or dehydration

How We Rejuvenate the Hands at Platinum Cosmetics

We use a layered approach to address both tone and texture, while supporting the skin’s barrier.

Fotona laser for pigmentation and collagen

  • Targets sunspots and uneven tone

  • Stimulates collagen to improve skin firmness

  • No downtime — just gradual brightening and texture refinement

Skin rejuvenation for hydration and softness

  • Boosts glow and comfort

  • Helps smooth crepey texture

  • Excellent for in-between laser sessions or seasonal support

Skincare to maintain results

  • Barrier-repair creams with ceramides or shea butter

  • Brightening serums (e.g. niacinamide or azelaic acid)

  • Daily SPF for the backs of the hands

We often recommend clients keep a skin care travel set in the car or handbag to make sun and moisture protection easier throughout the day.

What to Expect From Treatment

Most clients see visible improvements in skin tone and softness after 2–3 sessions, with continued benefits over time. Treatments are comfortable, fast, and don’t require any downtime.

Daily Tips for Younger-Looking Hands

  • Apply sunscreen to the backs of your hands every morning

  • Reapply after washing or sanitising

  • Use hand creams rich in ceramides, glycerin or urea

  • Avoid harsh soaps and hot water where possible
