Both skin and subcutaneous tissues are targeted in this multistage hand rejuvenation protocol. Topical therapies and intense pulsed light are used for skin thickening, rejuvenation, and improvement of age spots and leathery texture. Autologous fat is injected into multiple tissue layers to fill out underlying tissue. Excess skin is excised with a small, well-hidden incision on the ulnar surface.
