Temple Filler Injection for Facial Contouring
Temple filler injections help restore lost volume and smooth out wrinkles, addressing issues such as hollow, sunken, or indented temples. This treatment rejuvenates the face, giving it a youthful, radiant, and plump appearance, effectively creating a more refreshed and youthful look.
What is Temple Filler ?
The temple area is located on the sides of the eyes and is one of the first areas of the face to show signs of aging. As we age, the skin in the temple region begins to lose volume, leading to a hollow or sunken appearance. Some individuals may also develop crow’s feet in this area. Sunken temples can make the face appear older, dull, and less vibrant, with the bones around the eyes becoming more prominent. In traditional face reading (physiognomy), hollow temples are also believed to bring bad luck, particularly in terms of financial prospects and relationships.
Injection Sites for Temple Filler
Temple filler treatment is used to restore volume to the temple area when the skin loses elasticity and volume, causing the temples to appear hollow or sunken. This can make the face look tired, and combined with frequent eye movement, may lead to wrinkles around the eyes. When performing temple filler injections, the doctor will assess the areas where volume has been lost and carefully inject filler to restore balance and enhance facial contours. The optimal result is a more youthful and naturally rejuvenated appearance.
Additionally, the temple area requires special attention during the procedure because it contains major blood vessels at multiple layers. Any error during injection could pose serious risks, including vision loss, tissue necrosis, and paralysis. Therefore, it is essential to have the procedure performed by an experienced doctor who uses safe and precise injection techniques.
