As you age, your body’s collagen and elastin production slows down. This results in a loss of volume in key areas of the face and neck. Your face may look gaunt, and you may develop hollows or sunken skin around your eyes, cheeks, and temples. Lost volume can make your skin look stretched over your skull and affect your confidence and self-esteem.
At Diamond Works Medspa, we will thoroughly evaluate your skin, areas of concern, and beauty goals. We offer filler injections for the temples and cheeks to restore lost volume in the face and neck and give you back a plump, youthful glow.
Benefits of Filler for Temples
Dermal fillers for temples are a safe, non-invasive, and FDA-approved cosmetic procedure that restores lost volume, creates a fuller face, and reduces wrinkles. If you are feeling self-conscious about the signs of aging and want to restore your confidence, getting injections of filler in your temples can offer these benefits:
- Fill in hollow skin around temples and eyes.
- Reduce fine lines and deep wrinkles.
- Plump skin and make it look more rested and youthful.
- Increase the firmness and tautness of skin.
- Lift the eyes.
- Subtle results that last up to two years.
- Safe, effective, and non-invasive alternative to cosmetic
- surgery.
What Type of Filler Is Best for Temples?
The temple area does not carry much fat, so when volume is lost, it is very noticeable. You want to choose a filler for temples that is long-lasting, subtle, and can be easily customized to your needs. The most commonly used dermal fillers for temples are:
- Radiesse® – Radiesse is a very good option for temple filler as it offers a fast, significant transformation. Radiesse is a high-density temple filler containing calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in an aqueous solution. This plumps the temple area and restores volume, and results can last up to one year.
- JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC – JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC uses hyaluronic acid, which naturally occurs in the body but diminishes as you age. It restores lost volume and fills in facial hollows. It uses a higher volume of hyaluronic acid than other filler types for the temples, and the results can last up to two years.
- Sculptra® – Many professionals consider Sculptra the ideal filler for temples. Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid and corrects fine lines, deep wrinkles, folds, and hollows in the face and neck. While the results last up to a month to appear, they last two or more years. Also, you can get multiple treatments to customize the level of plumpness you want in the temple area.
- Restylane® Lyft – Restylane Lyft is another hyaluronic acid filler designed to add volume and structure to create a more youthful appearance. It can be used as a cheek and temple filler, adding fullness to the backs of the hands. Results appear immediately and can last 6-12 months.
What to Expect When Getting Filler for Temples
One of our team’s most common questions is, ‘Does the injection of filler into the temple area hurt?’ For most people, the injection will not hurt at all. We ask that you arrive at your appointment with a clean face, meaning no makeup, oil, serum, or lotion on your skin. We will cleanse your skin and apply a topical anesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable. In targeted areas, we will inject the dermal filler into the temples beneath your skin.
Depending on the filler used, your areas of concern, and desired results, we may perform between two and four injections. You may feel pressure or a pinch, but you should not feel pain.
After your appointment, you can resume your daily activities, but you should avoid strenuous exercise. You may experience mild redness, discoloration, itching, tenderness, or inflammation around the injection site. This should go away in an hour to a day. You can use cold compresses and over-the-counter pain medication to alleviate discomfort.
Results of Using Filler in Temples
The filler results for temples depend on the type and amount of filler used, where it was injected, how significant the volume loss was, and how quickly your body metabolizes the dermal filler. The results of Sculptra temple filler may take a month to appear, while other dermal fillers may show immediate results.
In general, your results may last between six months and two years. We recommend getting maintenance treatments to extend the lifespan of your fillers.
