Hands’ Skin Anti-Aging Guide !
1. The skin on the hands & neck is quite often neglected, becoming a tell-tale sign of ageing.
2. As the hands are constantly working, exposed to Sun, dirt, sanitiser, soap, the skin on the hands is prone to age faster.
3. Also skin on the hands is thinner, with less fat. This makes it is more prone to ageing, with faster loss of collagen & elastin. The palms have no sebaceous gland, thus making the hands more dry.
4. Look for hand creams rather than serums which do not help in moisturizing. Also the oil sits on the surface of the skin resulting in almost no absorption. A cream is a much better option & it can even be sealed with oil application on top.
5. Ingredients to look for – Vit C, Vit E, Niacinamide. These are antioxidants & anti-inflammatory. Look for shea butter & glycerin for moisturising & never forget to apply sunscreen on the top.
6. In-Clinic treatments like hydration fillers & lasers can be quite beneficial, both as prevention & curing the damage.
