Can dermal fillers correct my temporal volume loss and asymmetry? (photos)

Fillers can be used to improve temporal hollowing but the treatment is temporary and will need to be repeated yearly. Also, it takes quite a bit of filler in this area. For a permanent solution, you might want to consider silicone temporal implants. They are safe, easy to place with minimal risks, and permanent. The surgery is performed in the office with sedation anesthesia. The incision is well hidden in the hairline.

The simple answer to your question is yes, HA fillers can be used, and have been used many years already for augmenting hollow temples. Although the use of autologous fat would seem reasonable, there are a number of reasons I personally stopped performing fat injections many years ago for any facial augmentation purposes. For one, despite the promise that the fat will remain permanently, most of the fat, separated from its original donor blood supply, does not survive in the recipient location. What's more, the fat that does survive retains the characteristics of the area from which it is taken (which is usually the belly, hips or thigh regions). And this means that when with aging the belly fat develops midriff bulge, the fat in the temples can do so, as well. All this is besides being an expensive, two-step, invasive procedure that engenders real post-treatment downtime. What's more, if for any reason you don't like the results, there is no enzyme that easily dissolves the fat, the way hyaluronidase dissolves HA fillers. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic physician injector. Hope this helps and best of luck.

Hello, hope you are well. Yes, either fillers or fat grafting can be used to augment the temples.

Yes, dermal fillers can indeed be a viable solution for your concerns. They are often used to restore volume loss in various parts of the face, including the temples. The procedure involves injecting a gel-like substance under the skin to plump up the area, helping to restore a more youthful appearance.However, it's important to note that while fillers can provide significant improvements, the results are temporary and require regular maintenance.I hope this information is helpful.

It can. You can do Renuva, which promotes fat growth in the area where it’s injected. Fat transfer is also possible.

I hope this helps,
good luck !
