Radiesse Injections for Temple Area?

The area around my temple has lost its fat content and my face really sinks in there. it was recommended to me have Radiesse injected there. I am 52 with thin skin. I would like the fullness in my temple area but am concerned about it being lumpy. Have you ever heard of of Radiesse--or any other filler for that matter--being injected in this area around the temples?

A: Facial fillers to treat temple area hollowing

Loss of facial volume in the face as well as increasing skin laxity are two of the inevitale facts of aging. Hollowing of the temples is a common area that is affected. Depending on the patient, there are many choices for the treatment of this area. These include:

  • Juvederm
  • Radiesse
  • Sculptra
  • Fat

For those patients with significant hollowing and require a lot of volume, I prefer fat as it is the most permanent solution. Most patients with significant loss of volume in the face, however don't have that much fat to take from other areas. These patients therefore benefit from Sculptra.

I prefer Radiesse and Juvederm for those patients that require smaller volumes. These fillers, however don't last as long as Fat or Sculptra.
