How often can a patient get fat grafting in their hands? How is the procedure performed? Recovery time if any?

You may want to consider Renuva as an alternative to fat grafting to the hands. This product is similar to HA fillers in that you will see immediate improvement in volume. However it differs because over time the product is replaced by your body's own fat giving longer lasting results. This is different than a fat transfer and no surgery is involved.

Thanks for question. Hand rejuvenation depends on the patient. So, I would recommend a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine the best course of treatment. But generally, I like to inject Renuva into the hands to help add volume that was lost with age. Renuva injections are performed in a clinic under sterile precautions to keep everything clean. There may be small punctures like when you get blood drawn. Bruising and swelling can occur and last for 2 weeks. There is no downtime. Your can get injections ever 3 months. Again, make sure you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

There is no reason why you would need many treatments of fat grafting to the hands but if that fat doesn't survive you can re inject at any interval.  I suggest waiting 6-8 weeks between treatments.  Dr. Emer.
