Madonna needs medical help to fix her "granny hand". She is reportedly consulting her dermatologist Dr Frederic Brandt to help stop the protruding veins in her hands which tells her real age.

"She's managed to work wonders with her face over the past few years thanks to Dr. Brandt, but her hands have always been the big age giveaway," a source told the Sunday Mirror.

"Madonna hates the appearance of her hands and says they are too 'old lady'."

The Queen of Pop is thinking of doing chemical peels, intense sessions of microdermabrasion and injectable fillers. She has also started a course of fillers and scierotherapy, in which a solution is injected into a vein that turns it white and causes it to gradually disappear.

In the meantime, Madonna is keeping her hands hidden by wearing gloves.

The source added: "She can't channel Michael Jackson and wear gloves everywhere.

"That's ridiculous, so she's taking matters into her own, erm, hands. I've been told the hands are off limits to be shown in public."
