Over the past few years possibly my favorite area of filling has become the temples.
The reason it is my favorite is because it is the area that I can fill with very little bruising that no one knows what I did but everyone is told that they look much better. As people age, particular by the time they hit their mid to later 40’s, their temples begin to hollow. This adds hollowness to their eyes. It is a very subtle but effective way of improving someone’s eye appearance. It can often make them look less tired.
There are a couple of different options for filler.
The best one often depends on what other areas are being addressed. Two of my favorite are Sculptra and Radiesse. The other nice thing about the temples is that we can simulate what the appearance change will be like by injecting saline. This allows the patient to “try it on”.
