Your journey at Aloha Med Spa begins with an in-depth consultation where we explore your aesthetic goals and evaluate your facial structure. This personalized approach allows us to tailor the temple filler treatment to address your specific concerns, ensuring results that complement your natural features.
Temple filler is a specialized non-surgical treatment that uses injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) to restore volume to the temples. As a key area that often loses volume with age, enhancing the temples can provide a subtle lift to the entire upper face, creating a more balanced and youthful appearance. This treatment not only fills hollow temples but also helps in lifting the surrounding areas subtly, mimicking the effects of a mini facelift.
The treatment typically involves an initial series of injections that may be adjusted based on the individual’s response and the desired outcome. Most patients see significant improvement with one to two treatments, with maintenance sessions potentially needed annually to preserve the rejuvenated appearance.
Anyone experiencing hollowing or sinking in the temple area can benefit from temple fillers. This treatment is particularly effective for those looking to achieve a more youthful facial contour without invasive surgery. It’s suitable for individuals noticing the signs of aging around the eyes and forehead due to volume loss. Temple fillers are also an excellent option for those who wish to subtly enhance their facial structure while maintaining natural-looking results.

Each temple filler session starts with a personalized consultation where our skilled practitioners evaluate your facial structure and discuss your aesthetic goals. This step ensures that the treatment is perfectly tailored to address specific concerns such as hollow temples, sagging skin, or a desire for a more youthful facial contour.
Utilizing a fine needle, a biocompatible hyaluronic acid (HA) gel is carefully injected into the temples. This gel mimics the body’s natural hyaluronic acid, restoring volume and providing an immediate lifting effect. The precise application of the filler not only rejuvenates the temples but also subtly lifts the surrounding areas, enhancing the overall facial harmony.
Immediately after the injections, you may notice a visible improvement in the contour and fullness of your temples. The results continue to improve as the HA integrates with your tissue and hydrates the skin from within. Post-treatment guidelines include avoiding strenuous activity and direct sun exposure for a short period to maximize results and minimize swelling or bruising.
