Renuva Injections in the Phoenix Valley

What is Renuva?

With age, the body loses fat and collagen naturally over time, causing the skin to look thin and wrinkled. Renuva is a groundbreaking, off-the-shelf treatment to replenish age-related volume loss in the hands, face and other body areas, and it’s only in the hands of elite injectors.

The goal of Renuva is to offer a natural and minimally invasive solution for addressing the loss of fat and collagen that occurs with age. This approach can provide an alternative to more invasive procedures, which often involve more significant downtime.

How does Renuva work?

Renuva can revolumize your hands, restoring a youthful and healthy appearance. It’s the first and only treatment that, when injected into areas such as the face, hands and other areas of the body, is eventually replaced by your body’s own fat cells.

  1. Injection – Renuva is injected into the target area, creating a honeycomb-like matrix. The treatment acts as a scaffold or framework for your body’s own fat cells.
  2. Gradual Replacement – Over the course of 3 to 6 months post-treatment, on average, the Renuva matrix is gradually replaced by your body’s natural fat cells.
  3. Longevity – The fat lasts as long as your body’s own fat cells naturally last. General data from several National Institutes of Health (NIH) research studies report that fat cells live up to ten years or more.

What Is Renuva Used For

Renuva is an injectable filler. It can be used to add filler in spaces where wrinkles and fine lines have appeared to give the face a more youthful appearance. Here are some specifics:

Restore Volume

Whether it’s due to age or weight loss, fat loss can leave the facial skin drooping and sagging. You can use Renuva to restore the volume that used to be there. The Renuva injection sites are carefully chosen to provide volume underneath the skin and stretch the skin over the new volume. 

Improve Skin Tone

Renuva can improve the look of your skin tone. The injection is made up of proteins, collagen, and growth factors. This balance of materials promotes new skin growth where it’s injected. The new skin growth minimizes any errors in skin tone that you already have. It’s an overall effect, and it improves the entire facial experience. 

Smooth Texture

Not only do you get the benefits of the filler smoothing out the texture of your skin, but with Renuva, you get the benefit of new fat and collagen growth. Your skin sags because the fat and collagen underneath have dispersed, and Renuva fills these spaces, plumping up the area and providing a smoother look and appearance. 

Minimize the Look of Scars 

Scars appear because they compress the skin. When the filler reaches the area, it can push the scar more flush with the rest of the skin on your face, minimizing the appearance of any scars you may have. Renuva also encourages new skin growth that can improve the look of scars, tone, and overall texture. 

What Sets Renuva Apart From Other Injectables?

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers work by injecting a temporary filler into the affected areas while Renuva works by encouraging your body to create new fat cells and collagen. In the simplest of terms, Renuva is a more effective and long-lasting injectable because the body produces the material used as filler.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Renuva Injections?

If you’re looking for a way to minimize lost volume and contour on your face, neck, and other areas, you’re a good candidate for Renuva. It’s an ideal fit for patients who are looking for a non-surgical solution to wrinkles and fine lines caused by aging, weight loss, and other causes.

What to Expect From Renuva Injections

When you have Renuva injections, you can expect to see some improvement. There might be bruising or swelling that you can treat with ice packs and over-the-counter anti-inflammatories. Since the Renuva matrix encourages the growth of fat cells, you’ll see more improvements over the next three to six months.

Prepping for Renuva Injections

In the week before your Renuva injections, you need to avoid blood thinners like aspirin and ibuprofen. You should also stop smoking several weeks before the treatment for maximum benefits. Make sure you’re well-hydrated when you arrive at your appointment with a clean face.

Getting the Injections

When it’s time to get your injections, a tiny needle is used to inject Renuva into the area or areas where you want it. There might be some mild discomfort from the injections and it should only take a few minutes, depending on how many injections you are getting. You should be able to return to your normal schedule immediately.
