I had the Teosyal treatment done last year in October on my deep frown lines and almost a year later I am still perfect. It has definitely changed my life as I was living with these frown lines since I was 18 years old. i did not have any problem at all , during and after the treatment thanks to the medical pratictioner, Kate Harding. I am so glad to had this treatment done moreover, am so pleased to have met a highly qualified professional as Kate, who has always the right treatment to recommend whenever you are looking for a non-surgical treatment .

I am so happy with my results! Absolutely amazing. I got the filler to define the cheekbones that I lost because of "aging" and I got not only my definition back, but also my self esteem! I would recommend this product to others like myself, who are in their late 30''s and are beginning to notice their face "dropping". I feel it was a temporary face lift solution! I had two treatments, and the results were so subtle that I never realized how droopy my face was until I looked at before and after pictures!

Teosyal ® Reviewed by Dr. Paul Robert Weaver on 13/05/2011
I am an experienced appearance medicine doctor in New Zealand who has recently started using the Teosyal range for my patients. So far my personal experience has been that the "Global Action" is an extremely good value product with diverse applications and few side effects. It is a good general filler applicable to most areas and applications in the face. I am now widening my use of the range and have started using "Kiss" and "Ultra-Deep" with equally good results and few side effects. Many of the negative comments above could be attributed to poor injection technique and anaesthesia, rather than the product itself. Therefore I would caution patients considering any dermal filler to search out an experienced and reccommended "Medical Practitioner" to perform the treatment.

Teosyal ® Reviewed on 12/04/2011
Syringe was defective & snapped during injection causing massive pain & bruising. Bruising on face was ugly & lasted weeks. Teosyal warrantied & replaced defective syringe with practitioner. This was brought to Teosyal''s attention, unfortunately they have little or no regard for patient suffering as a result of their faulty product. Very poor customer service.
