According to Quirrel (this might not actually be accurate) troll regeneration works by constantly transmuting itself into its own body. I wonder if that can be applied to a human...
Harry would have to maintain the transfiguration for the rest of Hermione's life, or until they find a replacement solution. Given the extent of the injuries that may not be within his strength.
It does sound like exactly the kind of clever hack Harry would use to get an indefinite healthy lifespan, though.
Hermione would probably maintain it. Or maybe someone else. Harry should probably be doing this to himself, too.
