Temple filler for hollow-looking temples
Temples are easy to overlook, but a hollow look there can make the whole face seem more tired. Your nurse assesses the area at a consult and talks you through whether hyaluronic acid filler makes sense for you.
Temple filler pricing
Temple filler starts at $750, plus HST. The amount depends on your face, and your nurse plans it with you at your consult.
What to expect
Good to know
Who it suits
People whose temples look sunken or shadowed, often after weight loss or with age, and who want a subtle softening of that look.
Temples aren’t for everyone, and your nurse may suggest starting with another area first, or leaving them alone.
Before your visit
Tell us if you get frequent headaches or migraines, or if you’ve had anything injected near the temples before.
If you wear your hair pulled back, plan for a few days of possible bruising near the hairline. In February a toque hides a lot.
The first two weeks
You may feel tenderness when chewing or touching the area. Avoid tight headbands, hats that press on the temples and vigorous exercise for a day or two.
Give it about two weeks to settle before judging. Call us if pain is getting worse or the skin changes colour.
Risks, plainly
Common side effects include swelling, bruising, tenderness and an ache when chewing for a few days. Less common risks include infection, lumps, asymmetry and a reaction to the product. Your nurse reviews all risks at your consult.
Rarely, filler can block a blood vessel. Signs include severe or increasing pain, skin turning pale, dusky or blotchy, or any change in your vision. If you notice any of these, call us at 416 537 3333 right away, or go to the nearest emergency department if you can’t reach us.
Your questions
How much does temple filler cost?
It starts at $750, plus HST. The amount varies, so you’ll get a clear quote at your consult before deciding. Consultations are often complimentary.
How long does temple filler last?
Often around 12 to 18 months, though it depends on your body and the product. Results vary, and some people find it wears sooner.
Is temple filler painful?
Most people feel pressure more than pain. We use numbing cream, and the filler contains a local anaesthetic. Tell us if you need a pause.
Is there downtime?
Many people go back to their day straight after. Swelling, bruising and tenderness are common for a few days, and chewing might feel achy.
Who does the treatment?
Nurse Jade or Nurse Tammy, our Registered Nurses, who inject under our medical director’s orders. You’ll have the same nurse for your consult and follow-up.
How much will I need the first time?
We usually start conservatively and review at two weeks. Temples can look different once swelling settles, so it’s better to add later than to overdo it.
Can temple filler be dissolved?
Hyaluronic acid filler can usually be broken down with an enzyme injection if needed. Your nurse would assess you first.
Why do my temples look hollow?
Often it’s a mix of age, genetics and weight changes. It’s common, and it’s not a sign anything is wrong. Your nurse can explain what they see at your consult.
Can I do temples with cheeks?
Often, yes, since the two areas sit close together and affect each other. Facial balancing ($1,650) is our planned combination option.
How does this compare with Sculptra or Radiesse?
Sculptra and Radiesse are different injectables, used for facial wrinkles and folds, and they work in a different way from hyaluronic acid filler. They have their own page if you’d like to read more.
Do you take a deposit?
Yes, a $50 deposit when you book, credited to your appointment. New clients also get $50 toward your first treatment of $200 or more within 30 days, one per client.
