Hand Rejuvenation Research
Let us open our first blog with the most important aspect of any cosmetic procedure, research! It is easy to be blindsided by the glitz and glamour that seems to surround the world of medical aesthetics, but patient safety and outcomes should always be priority.
The aim of Lorenzo Garagnani's first published hand rejuvenation research paper, was to revolutionise the way medical aesthetic practitioners approach their treatment options. This was with a view to increasing the respect, understanding and knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the hand. Hand rejuvenation isn't an entirely new topic, but as the interest has grown, research, especially anatomically based research, has been neglected.
Lorenzo's world first publication has opened up the eyes of the industry. His original anatomically based hand injection techniques have raised discussion points that now must be addressed by the industry as a whole, in order to ensure improved patient safety and outcomes.
Some of the key aspects for healthcare professionals providing hand rejuvenation to think about, and, even more crucial, for those who are non-medics providing the same treatments:
Do they have an advanced knowledge of the complex anatomy of the hand?
Do they have an understanding of the biomechanics of the hand?
Do they have an understanding of the specific indications for hand rejuvenation injections?
Do they consider all potential risks and complications of aesthetic hand injections and how to prevent and treat them?
Definitely food for thought. Join Dr Lorenzo's journey, and collectively we can make a positive impact, ensuring a consistent approach and investment in hand rejuvenation research.
