Renuva
Restore volume naturally
Restore your own beauty with Renuva at La Chelè Medical Aesthetics. Renuva offers non-surgical fat restoration via in-office injections without liposuction or surgery. With this incredible new advancement, you can reverse the years as quickly as a lunch break!
Areas that can be treated include the face, hands, and body. Renuva acts as the framework to support cellular repopulation where patients would like fat to grow. Considered a “Bioinductive agent,” it acts as the catalyst that causes your stem cells to divide and grow into new fat cells, resulting in natural volume. It can also be used to fill cellulite dimples, liposuction irregularities, and surgical scar indents. Renuva does not require anesthesia and reduces the need for small-volume fat transfers.
Renuva is considered an “off-the-shelf fat alternative to a fat transfer,” as it triggers the body to create its own fat cells in targeted areas with a simple injection. Renuva is different from a fat transfer because no actual fat cells are transferred with this process, only growth factors that encourage your own fat cells to grow, eliminating the chance of allergic reaction or rejection. This process also allows for natural results due to the volume being created by your own cells.
Over the next few months, Renuva will naturally biodegrade and leave behind your own fat cells. This is important since as we age, we lose fat naturally, starting as early as our 20s, which can cause the body or face to look aged. Renuva naturally allows the body to restore lost fat and volume without surgery and can last longer than traditional HA fillers. Due to its collagen properties, it can also rejuvenate the skin. Renuva is excellent for those looking to restore volume naturally and those not interested in dermal fillers, fat grafting, or implants
What is Renuva?
Renuva is purified fat that helps replace age-related fat loss by triggering the body’s own fat production. It is used to replace lost volume in various areas of the face and body, smooth wrinkles, and fill in indented scars or cellulite dimples.
How long does Renuva last?
Renuva is FDA approved to last as long as typical fat cells do within the body which can be up to 10 years.
How does Renuva work?
Renuva creates a scaffolding using processed donor tissue to stimulate your own fat cell formation. The fat particles integrate with the surrounding tissues, and as your body stimulates the growth of new fat cells, results will continue to build over three months. Once the body has filled in the treated areas, Renuva dissolves and is excreted from the body.
What is the benefit of Renuva over other injectables?
Renuva contains growth factors and stem cells, meaning your own body creates the volume replacement, giving more natural results than typical fat transfers while also improving skin quality; Traditional HA fillers do not stimulate cell growth. Renuva is not hydrophilic, meaning it does not attract water to the area, and there is no massage needed post-injection, which is common with other injectable biostimulators and fillers. It also does not have any inflammatory response.
Why is Renuva better than a fat transfer?
It is less expensive and less invasive than fat transfers. There is no risk of rejection or liposuction, and it does not contain actual live fat cells. Renuva is excellent for patients looking to restore volume in areas of the body without the need for surgery or those who do not have enough excess fat to transfer. Instead of just transferring fat, it causes the body to physically create more of its own fat cells, giving more natural results
How many sessions of Renuva will I need?
Your provider will review your aesthetic goals and anatomy during a personalized consultation to determine the number of sessions needed to achieve optimal results, however two sessions are typically needed.
Who is a good candidate?
It is excellent for those experiencing age-related volume loss, divots, cellulite, or other areas needing more volume, those looking to increase volume in areas of the body without wanting surgery, or anyone looking for a filler alternative
How soon will I see results?
