Temple Filler in Santa Ana (South Coast Metro)
Restore balance to your upper face
Hollow temples can make the face look tired and top‑heavy. Temple filler restores volume so your features look balanced again.
A careful, natural‑first approach
You want a subtle change, not a new face. We hear that every day. Our team treats conservatively, checks symmetry in different angles, and prioritizes safety at every step. Meet the team and our injectors on the About page.
Simple and clear
Why treat temples?
Re‑balance the frame: Smooth the transition from forehead to cheek.
Soften shadowing: Makeup sits better; less contouring needed.
Support nearby features: Can improve the appearance of the brow‑tail area.
The stakes: Skipping expert care can lead to poor placement or an unnatural look. We treat conservatively and review risks so you can make an informed choice. For general safety guidance on dermal fillers, see the FDA consumer update.
How temple filler works here
What it is: An in‑office injection to replace volume where the temples have hollowed. We often use hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers for their reversibility; in selected cases we may discuss collagen‑stimulating options. Your injector will explain the plan that fits your anatomy and goals.
Who it’s for: Adults with visible temporal hollowing from genetics or aging who want a subtle, natural refresh. Not suitable for everyone; we’ll screen medical history first.
Your visit: Allow time for consult, photos, and treatment (when appropriate). We clean, mark, and inject slowly. In many cases we use a cannula; sometimes a needle is preferred. You’ll get simple after‑care instructions.
Downtime: Expect possible tenderness, swelling, or bruising for several days. Small asymmetries early on usually settle as swelling resolves. Serious risks are uncommon but include vascular events; your injector reviews warning signs and what to do. See general FDA safety notes on fillers for more.
How long it lasts: Longevity varies by product, placement, and your metabolism. We plan conservative starts and build gradually as needed over time.
