The aesthetic medical treatment of hollow temples and drooping eyebrows via hyaluronic acid.
Hollow temples are an issue on the faces of both men and women.
What is a youthful face ?
A “youthful” face is characterized by regular and balanced features, free of sunken temples, with no apparent loss of volume. As the face ages, cheeks tend to hollow-out, whether it’s noticeable or not, our temples also hollow (temporal fat pad depletion). This hollowing process can have a notable impact on the overall balance and harmony of the face's aesthetics and considerably age the entire facial zone. Most people barely notice, and it is often during the first appointment that I make them aware of this subtle aesthetic degradation.
It is a zone where fat loss is the most pronounced and premature: it shows up like sagging on the eyebrow tails while the eye area and gaze appear to age, with bone loss in specific areas of the facial skeleton contributing significantly to a tired-looking and sad appearance in which our features become hardened and severe.
How to rejuvenate a tired-looking face?

Hyaluronic acid is often the signature induction treatment.
Hyaluronic acid injections will lift the eyebrow tail and open the gaze. The correction of the hollowing-out of temples leads to a veritable facial rejuvenation in an altogether subtle manner and restores harmony and balance with the rest of the face.
These injections are often performed via cannula and guarantee immediate results.
Doctor Benjamin Cozanet, an aesthetic medical specialist in Paris, performs either superficial cannula hyaluronic acid injections or deeper needle injections depending on the degree of the temporal hollow.
The temple zone typically requires one syringe per side and sometimes even up to two syringes.
Since the temple region is not very mobile, hyaluronic acid is able to yield more durable results that can last anywhere from 12-24 months.
What do hyaluronic acid temple / eyebrow filler injections do ?
Dr Benjamin Cozanet performs hyaluronic acid injections into the temples to reshape the curves, the contours, the volume, restoring overall facial harmony in a completely natural way. The temporal hollowing and shadowing disappear, the gaze is rejuvenated and lifted, and the eyebrow tail is raised.
Temporal hollowing is often not noticed by patients; however, it is a definite sign of aging which makes the face appear tired-looking, devoid of youth and radiance. The aesthetic results are overwhelming, and patients can see the difference the minute they look in the mirror. The results are immediate and produce a real “WOW” effect.
Hyaluronic acid temple/eyebrow filler injections: Pre-Guidelines
Hyaluronic acid injections are a non-surgical treatment, but more so, a non-invasive anti-aging aesthetic medical act.
BEFORE:
Stop taking any aspirin or anti-inflammatories a few days prior to the session.
Dr Benjamin Cozanet will provide all instructions prior to the injections: reducing all alcohol consumption, tobacco use, sun exposure to reduce skin sensitivity. He will provide a detailed quote and have you sign an informed consent.
Where do hyaluronic acid injections take place ?
The injections take place in Dr Benjamin Cozanet clinic in the 1st district of Paris. The light, simple and practically painless procedure does not require an operating room, nor any kind of hospitalization.

He begins by disinfecting the targeted area. Sometimes anesthetic cream is applied for maximum comfort but over time this has become rarer and rarer because the discomfort is truly minimal.
This is a practically painless procedure, due to the anesthesia(lidocaine) mixed into the hyaluronic acid and the use of cannulas with flexible bodies and blunt tips rather than needles.
The natural-looking results are immediately visible, and the hyaluronic acid’s time-dependent degradation is long enough to be both efficient and impermanent, allowing for the evolution of the natural facial aging cycle.
Doctor Benjamin Cozanet considers it essential to monitor the evolution of the treatment results for up to 6 months. You can thus schedule a follow-up appointment so that Dr Cozanet can take the time to examine your face once again.
What is the best hyaluronic acid filler for this zone?
Dr Benjamin Cozanet will decide on the filler which is the most suitable for your facial profile.
Each treatment recommendation requires a specific hyaluronic acid with set elasticity and density criteria, with varying volumizing capacities to adapt to each type of targeted zone: superficial, expression, deep, hollowing or sagging.
What to expect after hyaluronic acid injections into the temples/eyebrows?
POST:
After the injections, the patient can immediately resume his/her usual activities. A slight hematoma (swelling) or redness may appear a few hours after the injections. No need to panic, everything will be back to normal within a few days. The right makeup can camouflage the bruising, which remains more challenging to cover on male patients. For this reason, the cannula is used to limit the effects of the incisions.
Don’t worry: the tiny prick injection marks will disappear little by little over the course of 3-4 days.
How long do hyaluronic temple/eyebrow filler effects last?
The treatment results will take full effect 3-4 days after the session.
I highly recommend a post-injection follow-up appointment (15 days after the medical act).
For your information, hyaluronic acid injections into the temples bring about very few side effects because it is a molecule which is naturally present in the body and skin.
This treatment is prescribed more frequently and is even considered quintessential for the aesthetic treatment of the face. It remains one of the first treatments to consider for many facial profiles as of 40.
