TEMPLE FILLERS
As we age, the fat pads and collagen in our face start to diminish, which can cause our temples to become excessively hollow and result in a more aged and tired appearance. Loss of volume in the temples can also lead to the dropping of the eyebrows and eye lids.
Temple filler is an underrated treatment that involves injecting dermal filler into the temples to restore lost volume and create a more youthful appearance.
Using Hyaluronic acid fillers, we can achieve a natural, subtle contour to the temple which can help to harmonise the face and eye area. The temple area is usually treated as a full face rejuvenation approach and pair nicely with other facial treatments.
Results can last from 9 months - 24 months, depending on the individual.

Facial fillers are a made up of Hyaluronic Acid. Our body naturally produces Hyaluronic Acid within our skin to keep it hydrated and looking healthy. As we age we start loosing volume to the fat pads and to our bone density - this results to the sagging and laxity we see as we age, resulting in looking more tired. By injecting Hyaluronic Acid to the right areas to help harmonise the face and bring a more perky appearance to our face, reversing the ageing appearance.

Before carrying out the treatment we apply an anaesthetic cream to the skin/lip area to numb it and reduce any pain. The fillers we use include an anaesthetic as well (lidocaine) which further numbs the area from under the skin.
A majority of the treatments are tolerated well with minimal discomfort.

As with any injectable treatment there are potential (albeit rare) risks that are associated with injection of hyaluronic acid fillers. These will be thoroughly explained to you during your consultation.
These risks can be minimised by researching your aesthetic practitioner and their qualifications and if they have expert knowledge of the facial anatomy and latest injection techniques. Check the practitioner is insured and if the products they use are FDA (Food and Drug Association) approved and CE marked, if they’re not then their insurance will be void.
The use of hyaluronic acid facial fillers also means a lower risk of an immune response reaction and if we do need to dissolve in an emergency then the product should dissolve effectively.
