If you’re looking for a non-surgical option to restore lost volume and improve skin texture, Renuva might be the perfect solution. This innovative treatment offers an alternative to traditional fillers by utilizing your body’s natural healing process to regenerate fat. Here’s a complete guide to Renuva, including where it can be injected, its benefits, recommended treatment plans, and who makes a good candidate.
What Is Renuva?
Renuva is an injectable treatment made from an allograft adipose tissue matrix (a blend of fat-derived proteins and growth factors). When injected into areas with volume loss, Renuva stimulates the body to create new fat cells, leading to natural volume restoration over time. This makes it an ideal option for patients seeking a subtle and natural-looking enhancement.
Areas Renuva Can Be Injected
Renuva is highly versatile and can be used in multiple areas of the face and body to restore volume or smooth out irregularities. Common areas include:
Face: Cheeks, nasolabial folds (smile lines), and under the eyes
Hands: For restoring youthful fullness and minimizing the appearance of veins and tendons
Body: Buttocks, hips, and other areas where fat atrophy or contour irregularities may occur
Lips: To create a fuller look
Cellulite and contour corrections: Helps improve skin irregularities after liposuction or other surgeries
Key Benefits of Renuva
Natural-looking results: Renuva uses your body’s natural fat regeneration process, so the results blend seamlessly with your natural tissue.
Long-lasting effects: The fat generated by Renuva can be permanent, unlike traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, which eventually break down.
Non-surgical: It’s an injectable treatment, so there’s no need for incisions or lengthy recovery periods.
Minimal downtime: Most patients experience only mild swelling or bruising at the injection site and can resume normal activities shortly after treatment.
Customizable: Renuva can be used in various amounts, tailored to your individual goals and areas of concern.
Number of Treatments Recommended
The number of Renuva treatments you’ll need depends on the area being treated and the amount of volume loss. Typically:
Small areas (like the face or hands): May require just one treatment, with noticeable improvements within a few weeks.
Larger areas or more significant volume loss: May require 2 to 3 sessions spaced a few months apart to achieve optimal results.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Renuva?
Renuva is ideal for individuals who:
- Are seeking a non-surgical solution to restore volume in areas with fat loss.
- Want to address minor contour irregularities or smooth out imperfections post-surgery
- Are not interested in traditional fillers or fat grafting but want longer-lasting, natural results
- Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations for their results
- Are interested in enhancing their BBL or Hip Dip correction results.
It’s important to note that while Renuva can create new fat cells, it is not a weight-loss solution. The ideal candidate is someone looking to enhance or restore lost volume in specific areas, not someone seeking overall fat reduction.
Renuva is a powerful option for individuals looking to restore volume and improve skin texture with minimal downtime. Whether it’s to address aging-related volume loss or to correct post-surgical irregularities, this treatment offers long-lasting and natural results.
