Mar 4, 2020
Hi, thank you for your question and for providing photos as reference. One of the biggest indicators of age, is the hands. Hands are the first thing to begin showing signs of aging.

Loss of collagen and elastin, combined with fat loss, gives the hands a bony, claw-like appearance.In our practice, Juvéderm is the smooth gel filler that we use to reduce wri...
