Treatment Overview
As hands age, they often show signs of volume loss, thinning skin, and prominent veins and tendons. Radiesse Hand Rejuvenation in Korea is a minimally invasive dermatology injectable procedure that uses calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and improve overall hand aesthetics. Unlike traditional fillers that primarily provide temporary hydration, Radiesse also stimulates natural collagen production, offering long-lasting rejuvenation and improved skin elasticity.
Korea is globally recognized for advanced hand rejuvenation procedures. Clinics in Seoul and other major cities combine expertise in filler placement, premium Radiesse products, and innovative techniques to deliver natural, youthful results tailored to individual hand anatomy.
Purpose & Benefits
Radiesse Hand Rejuvenation provides multiple benefits:
- Restores lost volume in aging hands.
- Conceals prominent veins and tendons for smoother contours.
- Improves skin elasticity and stimulates collagen production.
- Hydrates and revitalizes skin for a more youthful appearance.
- Offers minimally invasive treatment with immediate results.
- Provides long-lasting rejuvenation without surgery.
Ideal Candidates
Radiesse hand rejuvenation is suitable for:
- Individuals experiencing age-related volume loss or thinning skin in their hands.
- Patients with visible veins, tendons, or wrinkles seeking a natural look.
- Those preferring non-surgical, minimally invasive treatments.
- People who want hands that harmonize with facial rejuvenation results.
- Patients seeking long-lasting effects with minimal maintenance.
Possible Risks & Complications
While Radiesse is generally safe, potential side effects may include:
- Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at injection sites.
- Tenderness or minor discomfort in treated areas.
- Rare formation of small lumps or uneven filler distribution (usually correctable).
- Very rare allergic reactions.
- Low risk of infection due to Korea’s strict hygiene standards.
Techniques & Fillers Used
Korean clinics utilize advanced Radiesse techniques to ensure natural results:
- Radiesse (CaHA) Fillers: Provide immediate structural support and stimulate collagen for long-term improvement.
- Microcannula Injection Technique: Minimally invasive, ensures even filler distribution, reduces bruising, and maintains natural contours.
- Layered Injection Approach: Radiesse is injected at multiple dermal layers for optimal volume restoration and vein concealment.
- Combination Treatments: Some clinics combine Radiesse with PRP therapy or skin boosters for enhanced hydration, texture, and glow.
Recovery & Aftercare
- Downtime: Minimal; most patients return to normal activities immediately.
- Swelling/Bruising: Typically subsides within 3–5 days.
- Aftercare Guidelines:
- Avoid heavy hand activity or pressure for a few days.
- Apply cold compresses if mild swelling occurs.
- Maintain hydration and protect hands from sun exposure.
- Attend follow-up visits to monitor filler placement and outcomes.
Results & Longevity
- Immediate improvement is visible, with fuller, smoother hands and less prominent veins.
- Collagen stimulation continues to enhance skin elasticity over several months.
- Radiesse results typically last 12–18 months, depending on metabolism and lifestyle.
- Maintenance sessions help sustain the rejuvenated appearance and natural contour.
- Outcomes are subtle, natural, and avoid an overfilled or artificial look.
Treatment Process in Korea
Korea is a top destination for Radiesse hand rejuvenation due to expertise, technology, and aesthetic precision. The typical treatment process includes:
- Consultation & Assessment
Dermatologists evaluate hand volume, skin thickness, vein prominence, and overall anatomy. Precise planning ensures natural, balanced results. - Treatment Planning
The specialist selects the appropriate Radiesse volume, determines injection sites, and decides whether combination treatments (PRP, skin boosters) are necessary. - Preparation
Hands are cleansed thoroughly, and a topical anesthetic is applied. Microcannula techniques are preferred for minimal discomfort and smooth filler placement. - Injection Procedure
Radiesse is carefully injected into targeted dermal layers to restore volume and conceal veins. The procedure generally takes 30–45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. - Post-Treatment Care
Cooling packs may be applied, and patients receive aftercare instructions. Many clinics combine Radiesse with skin boosters or laser therapy for enhanced hydration and texture.
