Aestheticians say this budget-friendly product can help keep your hands looking youthful, even when exposed to regular UV rays.
He shared some must-try tips to combat the signs of aging on your hands and face.
Amish Patel is an award-winning aesthetician at UK-based Intrigue Cosmetic Clinic, which offers services including Botox and fillers.
In an interview with The US Sun, he revealed how he maintains his ageless look.
Smooth Skin
Patel said ageing hands can be rejuvenated with filler treatments, chemical peels and laser treatments.
However, using an SPF 50 product all year round can help reduce sun damage, eliminating the need to purchase these pricey options.
“Just as UV rays can damage your face, they can also affect your hands,” he says.
“We’re more likely to forget to wash our hands and reapply sunscreen, so our hands tend to age faster with age spots, wrinkles, and other telltale sun damage.”
“To rejuvenate and protect your hands, apply a nourishing hand cream with a high SPF after washing your hands.”
Patel also suggested wearing affordable accessories to prevent the appearance of ageing in your hands.

“Excessive exposure to UV rays can prematurely age your hands, so remember the same applies to regular gel nails,” he said.
“There are manicure mitts available that offer high levels of UV protection that cover key areas of the hand and leave fingertips exposed. For those who enjoy regular gel manicures, this is an ideal anti-aging investment.”
Over the past month, over 1,000 Amazon customers have purchased Saviland’s UV Gloves for Gel Nails.
These are designed to protect your skin from photoaging while also reducing the chances of sunburn or darkening caused by nail lamps.
Shoppers gave this $6.99 product a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars.
One customer described the gloves as “lightweight,” while another raved about the gloves’ softness and comfortable fit.
Perfect Face
Patel said forehead wrinkles can be minimized without Botox, but your beauty routine still needs the right products.
Retinol and hyaluronic acid are effective at increasing new cell production and plumping and hydrating the skin, he said.
“Chemical peels are effective at resurfacing the skin and addressing pigmentation and fine lines,” he says.
“I’m also a big fan of PRP therapy, which is sometimes called a ‘vampire facial’ because they take blood, separate platelet-rich plasma, and inject it into the skin, causing the platelets to release growth factors.”
“This treatment harnesses the body’s healing powers to stimulate the growth of new tissue, giving your skin a healthier, more youthful appearance.”
