Neck & Hand Filler
Neck and hand filler
Apart from the face and neck, the hand is the most visible unclothed area of the body. However, despite great advances in facial cosmetic procedures, hand rejuvenation has been largely neglected. Following the trend in facial cosmetic procedures, patients are now increasingly requesting hand rejuvenation treatments. Intrinsic ageing of the hands is characterized by loss of dermal elasticity and atrophy of the subcutaneous tissue. Thus, veins, tendons and bony structures become apparent. Among the available procedures, intrinsic ageing of the hands is best improved by restoring the volume of soft tissue.
How will I look after dermal filler in the neck?
There may be redness and swelling. There are hundreds of red dots along the neck lines/wrinkles so that it looks like there are “scratches” along the neck in the position of the lines. We suggest wearing a scar for the week after treatment
How long will the treatment last?
The answer to this is very individual and depends on the patient’s anatomy, metabolism, the dose, the placement, the product etc. Typically with our favourite neck line filler, if the patient is happy with the results at 1 month (ie there has been adequate fill) they should be treated at 6 months, then at 6 months and then once yearly. If the patient is not satisfied with the results at 1 month (ie more dermal filler is required to obtain the results that they desire), then further dermal filler should be injected every 1-3 months until the desired appearance has been reached, and then the patient should have treatment at 6 months, then 6 months, then once yearly.
HOW IS THIS TREATED?
Neck line filler is a simple treatment to treat the lines on our necks. As we age, it is common to get neck wrinkles. These can be treated very easily and with great results with dermal filler.
The dose required for dermal filler for neck lines is variable. Typically we will perform 3 treatments a month apart using 1 ml of dermal filler per treatment session. The patient may also choose to have skin boosters or PRP injected into the neck at the same time.
What to expect after a neck line filler treatment?
- The effect of the dermal filler will be obvious immediately
- Most of the swelling from the dermal filler will have resolved by 2-3 days after the procedure. There may be a small amount of swelling for even 2-4 weeks after the procedure.
