You may have to take extra care of the skin on your hands, as climbing can be rough on them; I get a lot of scrapes, and blisters are inevitable until you develop callouses.
But there are various climbing balms that help the skin heal much faster, and tape can be used to protect abraded spots. I don't think it'd be a major issue, just something to be aware of in advance.
