Sunken
Temple Filler

Temple volume loss is a frequently overlooked component of facial ageing — yet it significantly affects the overall silhouette and balance of the face. Hollow temples narrow the upper face, creating a skeletonised appearance that can make cheekbones appear sharper, eyes appear more sunken and the overall face look gaunt rather than youthful.

Precise filler placement in the temporal region restores the smooth, rounded contour of the upper face — softening the hollowed appearance and creating a more youthful, heart-shaped facial silhouette. It is often one of the most impactful treatments for overall facial rejuvenation, despite being one of the least commonly discussed.

At DermaMedica, temple treatment is frequently included as part of a comprehensive facial assessment — addressing the upper face alongside the cheeks and mid-face for a complete and balanced result.

The treatment
process.

Upper Face Assessment

Your clinician assesses temple hollow depth and its impact on overall facial balance and silhouette before determining the optimal volume and placement.

Deep Tissue Placement

Filler is placed carefully in the deep temporal plane — the anatomically correct plane for this treatment — to restore the natural convex contour of the temple.

Upper Face Restoration

The restored temple contour widens and softens the upper face, creating a more youthful silhouette and restoring the balanced, heart-shaped facial proportions of youth.

Your Treatment Journey

Before

Avoid blood-thinning supplements for 48 hours.

During

Topical anaesthetic. Precise deep placement. 15–25 minutes.

After

Immediate improvement in upper face fullness. Final result at 1–2 weeks.

Longevity

12–24 months — the temple area tends to have longer longevity than other zones.

Everything you
need to know.

Is temple filler safe?

The temples are a complex anatomical area with significant vascular structures. At DermaMedica, temple filler is performed exclusively by medically trained clinicians with advanced anatomical knowledge and the appropriate safety protocols.

How much volume is typically needed?

This varies significantly by patient — from 0.5ml to 2ml per side. Your clinician will assess at consultation.

Can it be combined with cheek filler?

Yes — temple and cheek filler are frequently combined for a comprehensive upper and mid-face restoration. Treating both creates the most natural and complete result.
