Embedding an STL file into a second STL file

I am trying to identify a way to produce an STL file that has an imprint of my grip (hand,fingers) on it. I have found some 3D scanning sodftware (Qlone for IOS) to capture a STL of my hand, but now I want to take that image and form an impression on another STL file, like a handle for example.
Does anyone have any expertise in this area?
Thank you,

You can also insert them into an assembly with their mate connectors fastened together, then use "Create Part Studio in-context" to create an in-context part studio where you can use the geometry without having the STLs in that same part studio. I would personally use the second method. Essentially pulling relevant geometry from the STLs as needed.
