Hand Filler in Myeongdong, Seoul

Hands often show age before the face. As fat on the back of the hand thins, veins and tendons stand out. Filler restores a soft cushion so hands look smoother and younger.

Quick answer

Hand filler spreads hyaluronic acid or CaHA under the skin on the back of the hand, usually 1–2 ml per hand, using a blunt cannula. It restores volume so veins and tendons show less and the skin looks smoother. Swelling settles in a few days and results last about 6–12 months, longer with CaHA.

Why do hands look older?

The back of the hand has very little fat. When it thins, the skin drapes over veins and tendons, and sun exposure adds spots and crepey texture. Filler restores the cushion; pigment and texture can be treated with pigment care or boosters.

Who is it for?

  • Visible veins and tendons on the back of the hands.
  • Thin, bony-looking hands.
  • Not with active hand eczema or infection.

How Obliv plans hand filler

Filler is placed as small deposits on the back of the hand, then spread smoothly with a blunt cannula or gentle massage, so it sits evenly between the tendons and away from the veins.

Typical volume Usually 1–2 ml per hand
Technique Blunt cannula, spread and smoothed evenly
Pairs well with CaHA filler, skin booster, pigment laser

Results and recovery

Hands look fuller straight away. Swelling can make rings tight for two or three days.

Risks and side effects

  • Lumps if filler is not spread evenly; massage or a small correction helps.

Aftercare

  • Remove rings beforehand and keep hands raised on the day.
  • Avoid heavy gripping, gym work and saunas for 24–48 hours.
