Teosyal® RHA 3 (2x1ml)

Teosyal® RHA 3 is a type of dermal filler that is used for facial rejuvenation and to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is made from hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in the body that helps to hydrate and plump the skin.

The “RHA” in Teosyal® RHA 3 stands for “Resilient Hyaluronic Acid,” which means that the hyaluronic acid molecules in this filler are designed to mimic the natural movement and flexibility of the skin. This makes Teosyal® RHA 3 an ideal filler for areas of the face that are subject to a lot of movement, such as the lips and the nasolabial folds.

Teosyal® RHA 3 is injected into the skin using a fine needle, and the procedure is usually done in a clinic or medical office. The results are immediate, and the effects of the filler can last for up to 12 months, depending on the individual and the area treated.

As with any medical procedure, there are risks and potential side effects associated with Teosyal® RHA 3. These may include redness, swelling, bruising, and tenderness at the injection site, but these side effects are usually mild and temporary. It is important to discuss your medical history and any medications you are taking with your healthcare provider before undergoing any cosmetic procedure.

Benefits of Teosyal RHA 3

1. Dynamic Aesthetics: Teosyal RHA fillers are designed to adapt to the dynamics of the face. This means that they are designed to move with facial expressions, providing a more natural look than some other fillers might.
2. Volume Restoration: It can be used to restore volume in areas like the cheeks, helping to achieve a more youthful appearance.
3. Wrinkle Reduction: Teosyal RHA 3 can be used to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles and folds.
4. Hydration: Like other hyaluronic acid-based fillers, Teosyal RHA 3 has a natural ability to attract and retain water, which can help to hydrate the skin from within.
5. Biocompatible and Safe: Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the skin, making HA fillers like Teosyal RHA 3 biocompatible. This means that there is a lower risk of allergic reactions or side effects compared to some other injectable materials.
6. Temporary and Reversible: If there are any issues or if a patient doesn’t like the results, hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, making the procedure reversible.
7. Long-Lasting Results: Though individual results can vary, Teosyal RHA 3 can provide lasting results for many months. However, like all fillers, the results are not permanent and will require maintenance treatments.
8. Minimally Invasive: As a non-surgical treatment, Teosyal RHA 3 injections are minimally invasive, typically requiring only a short appointment and with minimal recovery time.
9. Enhanced with Lidocaine: Some formulations of Teosyal RHA 3 contain lidocaine, an anesthetic that helps to reduce discomfort during the injection process.
10. Immediate Results: Unlike some treatments that take time to show effects, results from dermal filler injections can often be seen immediately after the procedure.

Areas of Use

Teosyal® RHA 3 can be used to treat a variety of areas on the face, including:

1. Nasolabial folds: These are the lines that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth.
2. Marionette lines: These are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the jawline.
3. Lips: Teosyal® RHA 3 can be used to add volume to the lips, create a more defined lip border, and smooth out vertical lip lines.
4. Cheeks: Teosyal® RHA 3 can be used to add volume to the cheeks and create a more youthful contour to the face.
5. Chin: Teosyal® RHA 3 can be used to add definition to the chin and improve the overall symmetry of the face.
6. Tear troughs: These are the hollows that can form under the eyes, and Teosyal® RHA 3 can be used to fill them in and create a more refreshed appearance.

It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate areas for treatment and to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your individual needs and goals.

Ingredients

The main ingredient in Teosyal® RHA 3 is hyaluronic acid, which is a natural substance that is found in the body. Hyaluronic acid helps to hydrate and plump the skin by attracting and retaining moisture.

Teosyal® RHA 3 also contains lidocaine, which is a local anesthetic that helps to reduce discomfort during the injection process. Lidocaine works by blocking the nerves that transmit pain signals to the brain.

The hyaluronic acid in Teosyal® RHA 3 is cross-linked, which means that the molecules are linked together in a way that makes them more durable and longer-lasting. This cross-linking process is what gives Teosyal® RHA 3 its “resilient” quality, allowing it to move and flex with the natural movements of the face.

Teosyal® RHA 3 is a sterile, biodegradable, and biocompatible product, which means that it is safe to use and does not pose a risk of allergic reactions or other adverse effects in most patients. It is important to note, however, that individual results may vary, and some patients may experience side effects or complications after treatment. It is important to discuss your medical history and any medications you are taking with your healthcare provider before undergoing any cosmetic procedure.
