Ageing Hands
When we think about the signs of ageing, most of us think about our faces. However, one of the earliest signs of ageing is our hands. This is because our hands are constantly being exposed to smoke, chemicals, UV radiation and other harsh conditions.
Our hands are an important part of the way we communicate and present ourselves. Beautiful hands give us the confidence to express ourselves in any situation. When we think about the signs of ageing, most of us think about our faces. However, one of the earliest signs of ageing is our hands. This is because our hands are constantly being exposed to smoke, chemicals, UV radiation and other harsh conditions.
The appearance of your hands is just as important as the appearance of your face and when hands begin to age, different signs appear, which can make a person appear older. Hands begin to age in many ways; Hyper-pigmentation and volume loss etc.
Hyper-pigmentation can occur, also called ‘age spots’ or ‘sunspots’, these are flat, dark marks on areas of the skin frequently exposed to the sun. This is due to excess pigment being formed in certain areas of the skin, it is a common complaint in fairer skin types. Volume loss can happen over time where the plump layer of tissue on the back of your hands diminish, allowing veins and tendons to become more visible. These concerns can make the hands look less youthful and therefore associated with aged hands.
