Hollow temples are one of the earliest yet least noticed signs of biological ageing. The loss of the temporal fat pad makes the face appear angular and gaunt — an effect that dominates the entire upper facial third. At minimal med, we recognise the temple as a vector zone: volume gain here can subtly lift the brow, open the eye area, and restore the face's organic softness.

5
Follow-up: After 2 weeks, we check the result.
The Temporal Cascade
How temple volume loss triggers a cascade: the brows descend, the eyes appear deeper set, the forehead seems wider. The domino effect of the upper facial third. Why the temple is the hidden lever for a more open gaze — entirely without brow treatment.
Material and Depth
Why the temple demands special considerations: deep injection on the periosteum for stability, higher viscosity for structural support. The connection to the eye area and why a holistic view of the upper third is essential.
The Overlooked Zone
An overlooked zone where ageing reveals itself! For a more youthful appearance, a little volume can have a big effect on a perhaps exhausted face.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do temples become hollow?
With age, fat, muscle mass, and even bone in the temple area diminishes. This is a natural aging process that is more pronounced in some people than others.
What product is used?
Depending on the situation, I use hyaluronic acid for immediate volume or biostimulators like Sculptra for long-term collagen building. Sometimes a combination of both.
Is the treatment painful?
With local anesthesia, the treatment is very tolerable. The temples are less sensitive than areas like the lips.
Do full temples help with wrinkles?
Indirectly, yes. When the temples are filled, the skin is slightly tightened and crow's feet can appear flatter. The entire upper face area looks fresher.
Can temples be combined with forehead and cheeks?
Yes, this is actually a very popular combination for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. We create an individual treatment plan.
What does temple enhancement cost?
The treatment starts from 299 EUR. The exact cost depends on the volume deficit and the chosen product.
