Overview
The temporal region is classically addressed with soft tissue fillers for volumizing purposes. Recently, the temporal lifting technique was developed to address jawline contouring and lateral midfacial repositioning. Due to the need for addressing the anterior midface and the cheek region a new injection technique was created: the KB Lift (named after Molly Katz R.N., B.S.N.,CANS and Dr. Brian Biesman FACS = Katz & Biesman). This cannula-based injection technique targets the anterior temple to reposition the anterior and medial midface. Learn in this video about this novel injection technique alongside the complexities of the temporal vasculature as it pertains to soft tissue filler injections.
