Fat Pad Restoration

Restore Lost Foot Cushioning

Review the Leneva pathway for fat-pad loss and high-pressure areas, including the material, aftercare and payment considerations.

01 — Understand

A treatment designed around missing cushioning

We use Leneva as an FDA-approved adipose matrix for selected fat-pad restoration and high-pressure areas such as the heel, ball of the foot, bunions, corns and calluses. The material is made from donated, sterilized human adipose tissue.

03Performed by our team as an in-office injection

02 — Process

Plan around pressure, placement and protection

Treatment planning begins with the area of fat-pad loss and includes short-term protection after the injection.

01 — Locate

Map the pressure point

Identify whether lost cushioning is affecting the heel, forefoot or another high-pressure area.

02 — Place

Review the injection plan

Discuss how much material is proposed, where it will be placed and what risks or alternatives apply.

03 — Protect

Follow the offloading plan

Plantar fat-pad replacement is typically followed by an offloading surgical shoe for about two weeks.

03 — Questions to Discuss

Bring these questions to your Leneva consultation

This is a discussion checklist, not an eligibility test. A consultation should connect the treatment to documented fat-pad loss rather than treating every callus or heel complaint as the same problem.

1Is fat-pad loss contributing to my symptoms?

2Which pressure area would be treated?

3What footwear or offloading will I need afterward?

4What alternatives fit my diagnosis?

04 — Payment Planning

Leneva is self-pay

Leneva injections are not covered by insurance. Confirm the current fee, payment expectations and any follow-up costs directly with us before scheduling treatment.
