Renuva
When you think of early signs of aging, fine lines and wrinkles probably first come to mind. But lines and wrinkles are not the only change that contributes to an older appearance. When you are young, an abundant supply of collagen and elastin, as well as natural pads of fat, help to keep your skin supple and smooth. As you age, collagen and elastin production slows down and natural fat pads diminish. Renuva is a revolutionary new injectable that can help you address this lost volume and reverse the signs of aging, with results that can last for years.
Using hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers can be an effective way to restore lost volume in the face, but hyaluronic acid is metabolized by the body, meaning the results are not as long-lasting, and additional treatments are often necessary to maintain a youthful appearance. Renuva is an entirely different injectable that can last longer and can treat signs of aging almost anywhere on the body!
What Is Renuva?
Renuva is an FDA-approved, non-surgical aesthetic injectable treatment that addresses volume loss in the face, hands, and body. This injectable is an allograft adipose matrix that contains the same proteins seen in natural fat tissue. The matrix found in Renuva stimulates the production of natural fat cells in the treatment area, helping to boost volume and deliver a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Renuva is a minimally invasive procedure with minimal side effects, no downtime, and high success rates, providing you with a treatment alternative that offers long-lasting results

Areas of Treatment
Renuva is not limited to facial volume loss common with aging. In fact, it can be used to complement many other cosmetic procedures and address potential irregularities that may occur. Common areas of treatment include:
- Face – Renuva injections can address lost volume in the cheeks, temples, nasolabial folds, and any other area where lost volume may contribute to signs of aging.
- Neck and Chest – Renuva can help tighten and smooth out the appearance of the neck and chest often experienced as you age.
- Hands – As you age, the loss of fat in the hands can contribute to visible veins and bones, as well as loose skin. Renuva injections help plump up the hands, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
- Body – Do you have cellulite dimples? Hip-dips? Depressed Scars? Did a previous liposuction treatment result in irregularities? Renuva injections into these areas can help smooth out irregularities and provide a smooth appearance.
- Breasts – Did a recent breast augmentation result in rippling or other breast implant irregularities? Renuva offers the ability to address these irregularities naturally and without surgery.
Am I a Candidate?
Renuva injections are ideal for men and women looking to replace lost volume in the face or body. Candidates will be in good general health and looking for non-surgical treatment alternatives that offer little to no downtime.
Because Renuva uses a natural allograft adipose matrix, the risk of an allergic reaction is minimal.

When Will I See the Results?
While you may see subtle changes immediately after treatment, the injection of the matrix is only the beginning. Over the next 3 months, your body will begin to produce fat and collagen in the treatment area, with your best results being revealed roughly 3 months after injection. Some patients may need additional injections in order to achieve optimal results.
The fat cells your body produces in response to Renuva injections are very long-lasting. While it varies from individual to individual, generally speaking, research findings suggest that human fat cells can last up to 10 years.
Renuva FAQs

What makes Renuva different from other facial fillers?
Renuva is a minimally processed adipose (fat) matrix designed to act as a scaffold that encourages your body’s own fat-regenerating cells to repopulate and restore volume. Traditional hyaluronic acid fillers, on the other hand, simply add immediate volume. However, volume added with Renuva is much longer-lasting than that of traditional fillers.
How does Renuva compare to Sculptra?
Both Renuva and Sculptra stimulate the body’s natural regenerative processes, but Renuva uses an adipose matrix to promote fat cell repopulation, while Sculptra stimulates collagen production. The choice depends on your specific concerns and how much volume and structural support you need.
How does Renuva compare to fat transfer?
Fat transfer uses your own harvested fat for volume restoration, while Renuva offers a scaffold that encourages your body’s regenerative response without needing a donor site, surgery or downtime. Renuva can be a good option for those who prefer to avoid an invasive procedure.
How long do Renuva results last?
Because Renuva encourages your body to regenerate natural tissue, results can be very long-lasting. Studies show that these stimulated fat cells can last for 5 to 10 years or potentially longer.
How many Renuva treatments will I need?
Most patients see meaningful improvement with one to two sessions, though the exact number depends on the area, degree of volume loss and your aesthetic goals.
Can Renuva be combined with other injectables?
Is there downtime with Renuva?
There is little to no downtime with Renuva treatments, so you can resume your normal daily activities right after your appointment. Mild swelling, bruising or tenderness at injection sites is common, but these effects typically resolve on their own within a few days.
Is Renuva painful?
Most patients report only mild discomfort during Renuva injections, often described as brief pressure or pinching. Topical numbing or local anesthesia can be used to improve comfort.
Can Renuva be reversed or adjusted?
Unlike hyaluronic acid fillers, Renuva cannot be reversed with an enzyme, but adjustments can be made with additional treatments or by combining treatment options to refine your results.
