If your face appears less full or has begun to take on a hollow look, sunken temples may be contributing to an ageing appearance. The temples are one of the first areas to lose volume over time. At Skin Architect, temple filler offers a subtle and effective way to restore this lost volume. By carefully replenishing the area, we can rebalance the facial profile and create a fresher, more youthful look.
Results will vary from person to person, and while we aim for the best possible outcome, specific results cannot be guaranteed due to individual differences.
Temple filler is a non-surgical treatment that involves placing dermal filler into the temples to replace volume lost with age. Restoring this area can improve facial balance and symmetry, reduce the hollow appearance that develops over time and create a softer, more youthful contour around the upper face and forehead.
The consultation with one of our expert doctors involves an initial examination, medical history review, and importantly an in-depth discussion on your goals for facial rejuvenation and dermal filler treatment.
Following your consultation, our cosmetic doctors will be able to advise if you are suitable for dermal filler treatment. The doctor will develop a tailored treatment plan specifically designed to address your goals. The treatment they suggest will be discussed in depth including pricing.
On the day of your consultation, it may be possible for treatment to be performed if you wish – or you can choose to rebook treatment for a time that is convenient for you or decide not to proceed with injectables treatment.
The temple area will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup or bacteria from the skin.A topical anesthetic is applied to reduce any mild discomfort from the injection, then dermal filler is prepared in a sterile syringe. After assessment of the area the doctor will gently insert the needle into the temple area and use a small amount of filler for a subtle filling of the sunken temple area. There may be a brief stinging or pinching sensation. After the injection, the site is cleaned, and the area may be gently massaged to ensure no lumps or bumps.
You will be given thorough aftercare instructions and an understanding of what to expect post-treatment such as mild redness and swelling post treatment.
Length of results – On average, temple filler can last around 12 months, with initial results being noticeable immediately after the procedure, and becoming more apparent within a couple of weeks as the filler settles into place. Follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain the rejuvenated effect as the hyaluronic acid filler gradually breaks down and is metabolized by the body.
Certain lifestyle factors such as smoking, excessive sun exposure, and intense physical activity can accelerate the breakdown of the filler, while maintaining a healthy lifestyle and proper skincare practices can help prolong the results .
Treatment Downtime: The downtime for temple filler treatment is minimal, allowing most individuals to return to their daily activities immediately after the procedure. Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site can occur but typically resolves within a few days. It’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and direct sun exposure for at least 24 to 48 hours post-treatment to reduce the risk of swelling and bruising.
