Renuva® is considered a safe and well-tolerated treatment when administered by an experienced provider such as Dr. Charles Kim. As with any injectable procedure, mild and temporary side effects may occur. These commonly include localized swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness, or firmness at the injection site. These effects typically resolve within several days to one week.
Because Renuva® works by stimulating the body’s natural fat growth, results develop gradually over several weeks to months. Patients should understand that immediate volume changes may be subtle initially, with continued improvement as new tissue forms. This gradual process contributes to the natural appearance of the final outcome.
Rare risks may include infection, asymmetry, or uneven volume distribution. Dr. Kim minimizes these risks through meticulous injection technique, careful patient selection, and detailed anatomical planning. Patients are provided with clear post-treatment instructions, including guidance on activity modification, injection site care, and follow-up evaluations.
Most patients can return to normal daily activities within 24 hours, making Renuva® an excellent option for individuals seeking minimal downtime. Follow-up appointments allow Dr. Kim to assess progress and determine whether additional treatment is beneficial to optimize results. Patient safety, transparency, and long-term satisfaction remain central to CK Plastic Surgery’s approach.
