You can tell someone’s age by their hands. While facelifts, fillers and Botox have brought a fountain of youth to people’s faces, large bulging hand veins can still give away your age. Hand veins become more prominent as we age due to fat loss on the back of the hand, exposing hand veins that were there all along.

People seeking hand vein treatment and hand vein removal have been told, for years, that there were no good options for them other than standard hand rejuvenation like injecting fillers to try and hide bulging hand veins. Fillers have to be injected regularly and don’t treat the underlying problem: bulging hand veins!

Dr. Malvehy is a pioneer in the definitive treatment of bulging hand veins, with Handscaping™.Few physicians in the United States offer any form of hand vein removal; only Dr. Malvehy offers Handscaping™.

Handscaping™ hand vein treatment uses a proprietary treatment protocol for administering foamed sclerotherapy (Asclera), using 1-2 injections per hand. Treatment takes about 10 minutes per hand. Patients wear a wrap on the back of the hand overnight and avoid strenuous exercise the day of treatment. You can return to normal activity immediately and exercise starting the next day. Veins absorb over the course over 8-12 weeks and a follow up visit is included.

Hand vein treatment is safe and effective. The circulation has a great deal of redundancy and collateral vessels instantaneously take over the work instantaneously.

Results are typically permanent with a single treatment effective for the vast majority of patients. Because Dr. Malvehy is an acknowledged leader in treating hand veins, patients often travel from out of state – and even outside the USA – for hand vein treatment with him.

During your initial consultation with Dr. Malvehy, he will perform a thorough evaluation to determine if you are a candidate for Handscaping™ hand vein treatment. Treatment to remove hand veins may be performed in the office during the initial consultation.
