Which type of fillers should I use for my temples?

As we age, the face naturally loses volume, specifically in areas like the temples and brow area. Soft tissue fillers like Radiesse are great for lifting the brow, filling out the temples, and making the face appear more youthful. Sculptra is an alternative. I suggest getting a formal consultation with a cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

For sunken temples, which can give the face a "peanut" shape due to volume loss, hyaluronic acid fillers or calcium hydroxylapatite (such as Radiesse) are commonly used. These fillers are effective for adding volume and contour to the temple area, which is generally safe when performed by an experienced practitioner. The amount of filler needed can vary, but typically, 1 to 2 vials may be used per side, depending on the degree of volume loss and the specific characteristics of the filler used. It’s important to have a thorough consultation with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to determine the best approach for your specific needs and to ensure the procedure is performed safely.

Hi @realselfprofileabc! Restylane Lyft and Juvederm Voluma work great in treating the temples. Typically, 1 syringe in each temple is common. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck!

In my opinion, Radiesse is an excellent filler for the temples. It lifts well, is cost-effective and will last about a year. Be sure to see a surgeon experienced with injections to this area.  Best wishes.

Thank you for the question! The temples are often an area overlooked but can make a subtle, youthful change to your face. I recommend starting with a syringe of Radiesse to safely fill in the area, 1-2 syringes is usually necessary. Always see a board certified plastic surgeon or expert injector to ensure the safest and best results.
