Shake someone's hand, run your fingers through your hair or simply raise a glass to your lips... your hands (unless you wear gloves 24 hours a day) will get noticed. With all of the anti-aging treatments for your face — from Botox®‡ injections to that "stretch mark cream turned anti-wrinkle phenomenon™" StriVectin-SD®— women are proud of their youthful complexions… but embarrassed by their telltale, aging hands. That's why the multibillion-dollar cosmetic industry is finally focusing its attention on hands… putting breakthrough skin-care technologies into their newest hand treatments. Far beyond ordinary moisturizers and basic creams that protect against heat, cold and everyday wear and tear, there's a new generation of hand treatments from high-end cosmetic giants Klein-Becker, Lancome®, Clinique® and Clarins® that not only soften and smooth but may also help reduce the appearance of age spots and wrinkles.
The newest, most innovative entry in this "anti-aging" hand care segment is Klein-Becker with its StriVectin™-HC Ultra-Concentrate Cream For The Hands™. This comprehensive formula not only reduces the appearance of fine lines and age spots on older skin, it makes the skin look thicker and plumper… eliminating that thin,"crepe-papery," almost transparent appearance that can make your hands look old, veiny and embarrassing. The cosmetic industry isn't the only one trying to cash in on this quest for younger looking hands. Plastic surgeons and dermatologists have their own techniques to make your hands look younger… including microdermabrasion, chemical peels and laser resurfacing. Injectable wrinkle fillers like Restylane* and Sculptra† can be used to plump the skin on the back of the hands. To reduce the appearance of pronounced veins you can try something called Sclerotherapy… a treatment that involves a chemical solution injected into the blood vessels. You can even use your own fat (removed by liposuction) and have it injected into the back of your hands to plump them up. Taking care of your hands is more than just the latest trend. It's an essential step in the boomer generation's pursuit of eternal youth. "Mature, rugged-looking hands are fine for men but not for women," says Heather Hurst, spokesperson for Klein-Becker USA®...We couldn't agree more!
