What is the Recovery Process After Hand Rejuvenation Treatments?
The recovery process after hand rejuvenation treatments with fillers is generally minimal, allowing candidates to resume their regular activities soon after the procedure. The exact recovery timeline may vary depending on the specific treatments performed. Fat grafting, for eg, requires some recovery as too much movement in the grafted areas may lead to lesser fat survival.
Immediate Post-Treatment Period:
After hand rejuvenation treatments, some patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites or treatment areas. These effects are typically temporary and subside within a few days.
Return to Daily Activities:
Most candidates can resume their normal daily activities immediately following hand rejuvenation treatments with fillers and/or lasers. Dr. DuPéré may recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure in the days immediately following certain treatments to optimize results and minimize the risk of complications.
Post-Treatment Care:
Following the procedure, candidates will receive post-treatment care instructions from Dr. DuPéré and his experienced team. This may include recommendations for using sunscreen, applying moisturizer, and avoiding harsh chemicals on the treated hands.
Long-Term Results:
The results of hand rejuvenation treatments can vary depending on the specific treatments chosen and individual factors. In many cases, dermal fillers can provide immediate improvement in volume and skin texture, while laser resurfacing or IPL therapy may require a series of treatments to achieve optimal results. On the other hand, the fat that survives post fat grafting tend to last many years.
Follow-Up Appointments:
Dr. DuPéré will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor the progress and effectiveness of the hand rejuvenation treatments. These appointments also provide an opportunity for any necessary touch-up treatments or adjustments to achieve the desired outcome.
By following post-treatment instructions and attending scheduled follow-up appointments, candidates can enjoy long-lasting results and maintain the rejuvenated appearance of their hands.
