Overview
The temporal lifting technique is designed to reposition the midfacial and lower facial soft tissues. However, due to the complexities of this technique a profound understanding of the temporal layers and of the temporal vascular anatomy is needed. In this video, the classic subdermal approach advancing the 22G cannula from the pre-auricular area cranially is presented and discussed.
