Q: What are the pros and cons of Teosyal?

Pros Hyaluronic acid is a substance already occurring in the body, so it’s absorbed and eliminated naturally over time and allergic reactions are rare. Teosyal is formulated for malleability, so it can move more dynamically and be used in more areas than other HA-based fillers. If you’re unhappy with your results, the filler will eventually dissipate on its own or can be dissolved quickly with hyaluronidase . Cons As with all HA fillers, results aren’t permanent, so you’ll need additional treatments to maintain them. While complications are rare, unintentionally injecting this and other HA fillers into a blood vessel can lead to serious complications, including tissue death. Seek out an experienced injector who’s very knowledgeable about facial anatomy, like a board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon. If you start to notice skin discoloration, seek immediate medical attention to get the filler dissolved. RealSelf members who said it was Not Worth It experienced lumps in their lips or discoloration under their eyes after Teosyal injections. However, as Dr. Leila Kasrai , a Toronto-based plastic surgeon, explains in a RealSelf Q&A , “The risk of developing lumps isn’t higher with this filler than others. It’s about the technique of the injector.”

Question 1

What is Teosyal?

Accepted Answer

Teosyal is a collection of hyaluronic acid–based dermal fillers that’s intended to add or restore volume and smooth lines in the face and neck. It’s more commonly used in Europe, but Teosyal was cleared by the FDA in late 2017 and is expected to be increasingly available in the U.S.

It’s used to augment the lips, cheeks, and chin as well as to smooth fine lines and wrinkles in the forehead, around the eyes and mouth, and on the neck and chest.

Teosyal’s formula is soft and malleable, allowing it to move flexibly with facial expressions and sit smoothly under the skin. This makes it a good option for filling in hollows under the eyes, where the skin is quite thin.

As with Juvéderm and Restylane, each filler in the Teosyal collection is formulated for specific purposes and areas. Your provider will determine the best product for your concerns.

Teosyal Kiss is made for lip enhancement.
Teosyal RHA 1, RHA 2, and RHA 3, respectively, treat fine, moderate, and deep wrinkles in the face and neck.
Teosyal RHA 4 is intended for volumizing and contouring the cheeks and jawline.
Teosyal Redensity 1 and Redensity 2 are formulated to rehydrate areas with thin skin, including crow’s feet, under the eyes, and on the neck and chest.
Teosyal Ultra Deep and Ultimate build or restore volume to the cheeks, chin, and temples.

Question 2

What happens during a Teosyal treatment?

Accepted Answer

Getting Teosyal injections usually takes less than 30 minutes. Your provider will cleanse the injection site and may apply a topical anesthetic, if the filler being used doesn’t contain numbing lidocaine. Then they’ll gradually inject the filler and gently massage it with their fingertips to ensure it’s even and smooth. You may have some bruising and swelling, but that should dissipate quickly.

You’ll see results immediately, and they’ll continue to improve over two to four weeks as the hyaluronic acid attracts moisture to the area to hydrate and plump the skin.

Teosyal can last up to 22 months, depending on how your body metabolizes it, your skin type, the area treated, and the volume of product injected.
