Customer Reviews on Google:
1. Joanna Kumpin, 2020
“I have been using their products like: Ellanse , Silhouette Soft- thread lift and Perfectha. These products are really amazing and high quality.
I think Ellanse is my new favourite filler by far!
Sinclare provides great support for professionals. You can join their Sinclare College where you can revise you knowledge or gain some new information.
Highly recommended and definitely worth trying!”
2. Anonymous Review, 2020
“A product called Sculptra was injected into my face in 2012; and the procedure was performed by an incomptent medical stud2nt at the Royal free London.
Subsequently I have endured perminent injury and disfigurement to the point that I need reconstructive skin – grafting under my left eye. This is just part of the story.
I approached Sinclair pharma for information regarding Sculptra which they produce and supply and they refuse to answear my calls and / emails and block my messages.
So much for professional.standards. This a corrupt gangster run company that disregards the safety of its product by refusing to acknowledge the harm that their product can cause.
SHADY DUBIOUS COMPANY THAT IS HARMING PEOPLE WITH DODGY PRODUCTS.”
