I have found that doctors are not keen to even try to put injectable fillers in the temple area. Even your own fat. I have asked three plastic surgeons in Malaysia about this and not one of them wanted to even try.They claimed that the results are lumpy and move down giving the brow a heavy appearance. I think they need to change the way this is done and the problem will no longer exist. Perhaps a gradual build up and numerous small injections to the areas. Please let me know what methods have proved successful or some photo sites.

Answer: Fat grafting for hollowed temples Many of my mentors have told me we need to listen to the patient. This is one of those times. I have performed fat injection into the temples with good results and I am sure other surgeons have as well. The key is to inject the fat into the deeper layers where it has a greater chance of survival and less of a chance of shifting position or producing an uneven appearance. I see no need for a gradual build up. Again you are also right about changing the way it is done.

Answer: Fillers to treat hollowing in the temple area Thank you for your question. In my opinion, fillers work very well to improve temporal hollowing. I prefer high viscosity hyaluronic acid as Juvederm volume. It is important to inject the filler in the right plane/space so it doesn't move during facial expression.
