Temple Filler — What to Expect
Frequently Asked Questions
Q：Does temple filler hurt?
A：The temple area has some nerve sensitivity. Numbing cream is applied before treatment. Most patients describe mild pressure — discomfort is manageable. Rappoel’s director has extensive experience with gentle, stable injection technique.
Q：How long does temple filler last?
A：Generally 9-18 months. The temple area has relatively less muscle movement, so filler tends to last longer. Rappoel’s multi-layer technique also helps extend results.
Q：Will my temples swell after filler?
A：Mild swelling is possible and typically subsides within 1-3 days. Bruising varies by individual but resolves within a week. Cold compresses help reduce swelling.
Q：Do I need to fill my temples if they’re sunken?
A：Not necessarily. Mild hollowing is a normal facial feature. But if temple hollowing makes your cheekbones look overly prominent or your face appear unbalanced, filler can effectively improve overall proportions.
Q：Can I combine temple filler with cheekbone filler?
A：Yes, and they’re frequently done together. Temples and cheekbones are key areas defining the upper facial contour — simultaneous adjustment achieves better harmony.
Q：What products are suitable for temple filler?
A：HA products with higher lifting capacity are preferred because the temple area must withstand pressure from chewing and other movements. Rappoel uses high G-prime products specifically designed for facial skeletal support.
