Renuva
Bioregenerative Fat Grafting Without Surgery
Renuva restores volume by encouraging the body to regenerate its own fat.
It represents a shift in aesthetic medicine, moving away from temporary synthetic gels toward long-term biological restoration. It is an adipose-derived matrix that provides the necessary environment for your body to grow its own tissue. This treatment offers a sophisticated solution for those who want the lasting benefits of fat grafting but prefer a minimally invasive, non-surgical office visit.
Scaffold-Based Fat Regeneration
Renuva is an FDA-regulated injectable adipose matrix derived from processed donor fat tissue. Once injected, it forms a honeycomb-like scaffold containing collagen, proteins, and growth factors that signal the body to generate new fat cells within the treated area.
Over three to six months, the body gradually breaks down the matrix and replaces it with the patient’s own fat. Because the scaffold is replaced biologically, results develop slowly and integrate naturally, offering long-lasting volume restoration rather than short-term filler expansion.
Appropriate Candidates
Renuva is suitable for individuals experiencing age-related volume loss who prefer gradual, natural restoration. Candidates often seek an alternative to traditional fillers and value long-term tissue regeneration rather than immediate volume changes or repeated maintenance injections.
This treatment may benefit patients addressing volume loss in areas with existing fat, including the face, hands, and body. It is often chosen to avoid filler fatigue or overfilled appearance. Renuva is not recommended for areas without fat, such as lips or directly beneath the eyes.
Biologic Volume Restoration
Renuva supports natural fat regeneration, creating soft, long-lasting volume. Benefits include gradual improvement, natural appearance, and reduced reliance on repeated fillers while avoiding liposuction. Results integrate with surrounding tissue and can remain stable for several years.
Gradual volume restoration over several months
Stimulates the body’s own natural fat production
Long-lasting results using biologic integration
No liposuction or fat harvesting required
Reduces risk of overfilled appearance
Soft, natural contour outcomes
Any Questions?
Renuva is an allograft adipose matrix that provides a structural scaffold to encourage the body to regenerate its own natural fat cells.
It acts as a scaffold that allows your body to populate the area with its own natural fat cells, creating a permanent increase in volume.
Most patients experience only minor swelling or bruising for a few days, allowing for a quick return to normal social and work activities.
Yes, Renuva is highly effective at restoring youthful volume to the back of the hands, obscuring visible tendons and prominent veins.
Once the body’s own fat has populated the matrix, the results are considered long-term, lasting as long as the patient's natural fat cells.
Unlike synthetic fillers that eventually dissolve, Renuva signals the body to replace the matrix with the patient's own living fat tissue.
Renuva is frequently used to correct small volume deficits in the face, hands, and body, such as depressions from liposuction or aging.
While some volume is visible immediately, the full regenerative process and natural volume restoration typically take 3 to 6 months to mature.
