Laser Hand Rejuvenation

Evaluate dorsal hand aging changes and select and customize fractional laser parameters for safe, natural-looking rejuvenation.

What this track covers

This track covers dorsal hand anatomy and the aging changes that drive patient concerns, including volume loss, dyspigmentation, and skin laxity. It reviews how fractional laser systems stimulate collagen remodeling and skin renewal, and how to compare device types for this thin, tendon-exposed skin. You'll work through parameter selection, safety considerations, and how to sequence treatment for a result that fits the patient's overall appearance.

What you will practice

  • Assess dorsal hand skin for volume loss, pigmentation, and photoaging severity
  • Differentiate fractional laser types and match device characteristics to hand skin
  • Set and adjust treatment parameters for thinner, tendon-exposed anatomy
  • Recognize contraindications and safety flags before treating the hands
  • Sequence and counsel on post-treatment care and expected healing course

Simulator scenario
