Temple Rejuvenation

Add a youthful contour to the temple area

As the human face ages, fat cells begin to diminish in number and become unable to prop up the skin at a youthful convex contour. The temples (the area at either end of the forehead) are one such facial area that are an important giveaway of age and are often not addressed when patients are seeking facial rejuvenation. When assessing the temple area, as well as all other areas of the face, in order to achieve global facial rejuvenation it is fundamental that the provider possesses both a thorough understanding of the anatomy of the face as well as an artistic eye to create the youthful contours and achieve exceptional results. Dr Imani will select the appropriate filler to re-establish volume and add a youthful contour to the temple area. The lifting effect is immediate and as an added bonus, the additional support to the skin provided by the dermal fillers tends to slightly lift the ends of the brows, opening up the eye area and hence contributing to an overall impression of rejuvenation of the upper face.
