What are Temple Fillers?
Temple fillers involve injecting small amounts of transparent hyaluronic acid gel into the temporal areas or forehead. This adds volume to the region, creating a smooth skin appearance, reducing lines, restoring shape, & defining the face. Injecting an injectable dermal filler into temple hollows can help patients achieve a lifted look without surgery. This method stretches and lifts the skin around the upper eye area, addressing facial volume loss in the temple hollows & enhancing facial structure by lifting the cheeks, ultimately rejuvenating the appearance.

How Does Temple Fillers
Procedure Work?
Dr. Sabrina frequently employs an ultrasound to examine the area before administering injections to ensure the most effective injection technique. Dermal fillers contain an anaesthetic known as lidocaine, which minimises discomfort. However, a numbing cream is often applied 15 minutes before the procedure. The hyaluronic acid-based filler is then inserted into the superior sulcus hollow or temple hollow using a cannula. The blunt tip of the cannula reduces the risk of puncturing any vessels, making it well-suited for this high-risk area. Following the injection, the hollow cavity is eliminated, and the upper-eye and lateral eyebrow hollows are noticeably reduced. The entire process usually takes approximately 15 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
When will I start to notice results?
Following superior sulcus filler, you will typically see immediate results.
What is the recovery time?
There is minimal downtime associated with superior sulcus filler. However, you may experience some bruising, redness, or swelling in the treated area, which usually resolves within a few days and can be concealed with makeup.
Is the treatment painful?
Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers contain an anaesthetic called lidocaine, which reduces discomfort. Therefore, the use of numbing cream is generally unnecessary. However, if you are concerned about discomfort, numbing cream can be applied beforehand.
How long does superior sulcus filler last?
Treatment with filler in the superior sulcus cavity can last up to two years due to it being a closed compartment.
What are the potential risks of superior sulcus filler?
Following treatment, it is possible to experience irregularities in contour, incomplete improvement, or “overcorrection” of the superior sulcus hollow, although this is rare.
What are some common side effects of facial fillers?
Mild side effects near the injection area may include swelling, redness, pain, bruising, rash, and itching. These usually go away on their own in a week or two.
What should I do if I experience any serious side effects?
Seek immediate emergency medical assistance if you encounter any of the following symptoms:
- Infection or signs of infection
- Filler leaking out of the injection site
- Growths or nodules near the injection site
- Vision loss or changes in vision
- Severe pain or bruising
- Difficulty breathing or swallowing
Can facial fillers cause long-term damage?
In rare cases, facial fillers can cause long-term damage, such as tissue death or vision loss, if the filler is injected into arteries that supply blood to the eyes or if there is a blockage in blood flow.
What to avoid after temple fillers?
After getting hollow temple filler treatment, it’s important not to sleep on your temples or put any pressure on them for a few days. Rather, sleep with your face facing upward on your back. Also, avoid drinking too much alcohol and doing intense exercise for 24 hours after the procedure.
