Juvederm and Teosyal are similar in more ways than one

Hassan Galadari, MD answers: Teosyal or Juvederm for restoring cheek volume?

I would like to go get injectable fillers to restore the volume of my cheeks, and the doctor recommended me Teosyal or Juvederm. I'm not sure which to pick; any recommendation? I do have a slight asymmetry with my jawline, but when injecting fillers on my cheeks as long as they are the same amount, my cheeks should look even, right? I don't want to end up having lopsided cheeks. Please let me know if there are any specific questions that I should be asking my doctor before getting the injection.

The history with these two products is very interesting. One of the key founders of the French company that made Juvederm before it was taken over by Allergan had a fall out with the board. That person founded Teoxane, the company that made Teosyal. When I moved from California to Dubai, it was eerily strange how the syringes of both products were the exact same thing, even the packaging with two syringes in one box was the same. The needle even came off just as it did with the old Juverderm syringes. (Allergan has gone to change that).

In Europe, Teosyal is a very strong competitor of Restylane and is the leading forrce to produce the price wars amongst the HA fillers. From all the fillers, I have used and I have used a lot, Teosyal is a great product and comparable to both Restylane and Juvederm, with results lasting the same.
