Sunken Temples Making You Look Gaunt? Temple Filler at Rappoel Clinic Seoul






Sunken Temples Making You Look Gaunt? Temple Filler at Rappoel Clinic Seoul



Temple (temporal) hollowing is a common yet often overlooked facial contour issue among Asians. Sunken temples make cheekbones appear overly prominent, disrupt facial flow, and create a tired, gaunt appearance. Hyaluronic acid filler is the safest and most effective non-surgical solution, and Rappoel Dermatology Clinic in Seoul uses The Chaeum filler series for precise temporal augmentation.

Effects of Temple Hollowing

  • Disrupted facial harmony: Hollow temples create an unbalanced “top-narrow, bottom-wide” appearance
  • Overly prominent cheekbones: Hollowing visually amplifies cheekbone protrusion
  • Fatigued appearance: Temple fullness is a hallmark of youthful faces
  • Poor side profile: The transition from forehead to cheek appears gaunt

How Temple Filler Works

The temple zone includes multiple tissue layers: periosteum, deep fat pads, and superficial soft tissue. Both bone resorption and fat pad atrophy can cause hollowing. The Chaeum filler is precisely injected to restore lost volume:

  • Restore facial fullness — smooth, balanced facial outline
  • Soften cheekbone prominence — temples fill out, cheekbones recede visually
  • Restore youthful “inverted triangle” proportions
  • Improve side profile — seamless forehead-to-cheek transition

Rappoel Technique

  • Cannula technique — reduced vascular risk in this vessel-rich zone

Results and Longevity

Frequently Asked Questions

Is temple filler safe?
The temple is a vessel-rich area, making it a high-risk injection zone. Rappoel uses blunt cannula technique with supra-periosteal placement to minimize vascular risk. The director has extensive temporal injection experience.
How much filler do I need for temples?
0.5–1.5 cc per side for natural results, depending on hollowing severity. Severe hollowing may require 1.5–2.5 cc. Overfilling creates unnatural proportions — less is often more.
Can I fly home immediately?
Yes. Cannula entry points are minimal and nearly invisible. No special recovery is needed — same-day or next-day travel is fine.
Will temple filler affect chewing or speaking?
No. The filler is placed at the supra-periosteal level — it does not interfere with temporal muscle function. Any mild sensation of fullness resolves within 1–2 days.
How long do temple filler results last?
The temple area sees minimal muscle movement, so filler breaks down slowly — typically 12–18 months. Annual touch-ups maintain the effect.
