What non cosmetic options can help me achieve more volume in the temporal area? (photos)

Facial sculpting and contouring can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Countour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

In general, injectable fillers may be employed to reduce concavities in the temporal area. Temporal hollowing is associated with aging, genetics, excessive aerobic exercise like running, and sometimes malnutrition. If you're healthy, fillers may be the way to go. Theoretically you could chew gum to enlarge your chewing muscles, but that may cause your masseters to enlarge, and sometimes excessive gum chewing may lead to TMD (temporomandibular joint disease), and headache pain. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

Sculptra is always my first choice for adding volume to temples. It looks very natural, i feel that it is safest thing to inject here, and it lasts at least two years,
