Temple Augmentation

Temple Augmentation In Poughkeepsie, NY & Danbury, CT

Introduction

Introduction to Temple Augmentation

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and felt like something seemed “off” about your facial balance, it might not be your cheeks or jawline; in fact, it could be your temples. As we age, the temples often lose volume, creating a hollow or sunken appearance that can make us look more tired, aged, or gaunt than we actually are. At Tania Cohen Dermatology in Poughkeepsie, NY, and Danbury, CT, we offer temple augmentation to subtly restore fullness and harmony to the upper face, helping patients achieve a more refreshed, youthful, and balanced look without overcorrection.

What is a Temple Augmentation?

Temple augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that restores volume to the hollow areas on the sides of the forehead, just behind the eyes. These sunken areas are often caused by aging, genetics, or significant weight loss and can disrupt the smooth transition from the brow to the cheekbones. At Tania Cohen Dermatology, we usually perform this procedure using dermal fillers or fat transfer techniques to create a more youthful and softened appearance. It’s a quick, non-surgical option that can make a significant difference in overall facial symmetry and vibrancy.

Who Are the Best Candidates For a Temple Augmentation?

Usually, the best candidates for temple augmentation are individuals who’ve noticed volume loss in the upper face (particularly the temples), leading to a more hollow, aged, or angular appearance. You may also be a great candidate if you’ve always had naturally narrow temples and want a more balanced facial contour. This treatment is ideal for healthy adults with realistic expectations who are looking for a subtle, non-invasive way to refresh their appearance. Whether you’re in your 30s, starting to notice early signs of aging, or in your 50s or 60s wanting to restore a smoother contour, temple augmentation can be tailored to your aesthetic goals.

What Are the Benefits of a Temple Augmentation?

Temple augmentation may seem like a small tweak, but the results are anything but minor. By restoring lost volume in the temples, this treatment can:

  • Smooth the contour of the upper face
  • Create a more youthful and lifted appearance
  • Improve overall facial harmony and balance
  • Soften harsh or angular features
  • Complement other aesthetic treatments like cheek or jawline enhancement

Additionally, the results are immediate with fillers, and downtime is minimal.
