Overview
Temporal hollowing can be addressed with soft tissue fillers. However, if a long-lasting result and an additional improvement of the temporal skin is desired, biostimulators should be the product of choice. Due to the complex vascular anatomy of the temple, the performed injection technique is paramount to stay safe and to avoid the multiple temporal arteries. Learn from this video which (of the multiple) temporal injection techniques is best suited to deliver an effective and safe biostimulator treatment.
