What is Renuva?
Renuva is a new treatment that, when injected, gradually replaces age-related fat loss with your body’s own fat. The injectable itself is made up of collagen, proteins, and growth factors derived from donated and purified fat. Once injected, it is a scaffolding that triggers your body’s own fat production. Renuva falls under the category of natural fillers.
What can Renuva treat?
Renuva is injected where fat naturally exists, to replace volume where fat loss occurs.
It is commonly used to restore volume in the face and hands, as well as areas of the body. Renuva is best used to treat the temples, cheeks, nasolabial folds and the neck.
The treatment is also helpful for erasing cellulite dimples, smoothing liposuction irregularities, and flattening depressed scars.
What to expect after Renuva treatment?
Post injection, new blood vessels and fat cell formation results in volume restoration – which helps you look natural, youthful and healthy. While Renuva’s results can take several months to appear, they last much longer than traditional hyaluronic fillers. The body’s fat-building process takes months to kick in, but once that fat has been triggered, it can last for years.
