In the photo you can see a hollow area above the cheekbone right beside the ear. Is it safe to inject filler into this area to reduce the hollowing? The area is under the sideburn hair above the cheekbone, next to the ear. The exact location is marked in the attached photo.

Answer: Fillers for temples It is very safe and you are a great candidate as your temple fat pad is very thin. Your options are : Fat transfer, or dermal fillers such as Juvederm Voluma or Restylane Defyne or collagen booster such as Sculptra esthetic. I highly recommend to set with quickest and easiest option such ah dermal fillers before considering invasive options like fat grafting. I always use microcannula technique to decrease any chance of bruising, give less swelling and avoid injecting into a blood vessel. Please seek an expert consultation for best option for you.

Answer: Fillers in Temple Area Yes it is safe in the temples. I prefer to inject Voluma deeply in that area for the best filling and lifting results. Care must be taken to avoid blood vessels in that area. It is a commonly treated site in my practice. Best Wishes, Maurice Vick MD
