About Hand Wrinkles & Dryness
The skin on the hands loses collagen and elastin from its structure in the same way that the face and body does. This will lead to a loss in volume and thinning skin on the hands, which can accentuate the appearance of the veins and give the hands the bony look that is associated with age.
The skin on the hands is more vulnerable to drying out, developing a rough texture that has a crepey effect. Dryness can become accelerated if it is not given attention, causing itching, a scaly appearance and in more extreme cases, split skin and / or bleeding.
UV rays from the sun accelerate volume loss from the hands as it helps in the breakdown of collagen, but can also damage the cells which leads to sun spots or age spots developing on the surface.
It is important to ensure that the hands receive just as much attention as the face when it comes to undertaking a regular skincare routine. A daily moisturiser helps to prevent dry skin and a suitable SPF will protect from the effects of the sun.
