Temple/Forehead Fillers

Gone are the days we just inject cheeks and lips! Facial beauty is about the whole face and each component area has a key role in the impression your face projects.

Temples can be quite hollowed due to genetic factors or certainly become so with age or significant weight loss. The fact is, we subconsciously perceive hollowing or skeletal features as an indicator of ageing or illness.

By softening these hollows and shadows, we can give bring instant freshness and youth to a face. It is uncommon for patients to notice some of these features such as the temples but common for us to treat this once they appreciate the WHY? This comes during a thorough assessment and consultation.

The forehead may also have visible depressions. The ideal male and female forehead are quite different and your facial assessment will allow your doctor to make the right plan for you. Ladies can particularly benefit from softening hollowed temples or forehead depressions to deliver not only localised lift but also whole face beautification. These are the new subtle and covert ways the face can be freshened up with new youth and vitality, whilst ensuring no-one will know what you have had done!

This treatment may be suitable for you if you have one of the following:

Flat brows
A lean face with hollowed temples or forehead depressions
Heavy eyelids
As part of a whole-face beautification

Why choose Perfect Skin Solutions for your Temple/Forehead Fillers?

As we mention throughout all our pages on fillers, this is an art as much as a science. A deep understanding of facial beauty and the psychology of beauty, allows a doctor to deliver perfect results taking your face to the peak of its aesthetic potential. Our doctors know when to say “no” and often find themselves showing a patient how the treatment they believe they need is not necessarily the right one to achieve the perfect facial profile they want.

FAQ

I’ve heard of some terrible stories in the press... are the fillers you use safe?

Yes! We only use reputable brands – such as the FDA-approved Belotero® range – which have been used on millions of people over many years. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers are based on a natural ingredient of human skin and although relatively long-lasting, are not permanent. It is permanent (and some semi-permanent) fillers derived from animals, that have been associated with some adverse reactions, including in a British TV celebrity many years ago. Too much filler or the wrong type in the wrong place, can also give an unwanted appearance but your clinician will fully discuss your desired look with you so that an appropriate volume and type of filler is used to achieve the right outcome for you.

What exactly is Hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance found in the body that helps to hydrate and add volume to our skin. Natural hyaluronic acid is broken down by the body in one or two days so is constantly replaced—as we age this replacement mechanism diminishes so the moisturising and plumping effects of hyaluronic acid decrease. Hyaluronic acid is used for aesthetic treatments but is also used by doctors for injection into arthritic joints to aid movement, as well as eye surgery.

How long is an appointment?

The injection process takes only 20-60 minutes. You will also need to allow time to discuss what you are hoping to achieve with Dr Patel, before treatment. Except for lip treatments, you must have already had a consultation on another day, prior to treatment.

Will the procedure hurt?

The smooth consistency of the fillers we use will allow your clinician to administer the product easily and smoothly. It also contains a local anaesthetic to reduce injection pain for a more comfortable experience. A local anaesthetic cream may also be offered for you to use prior to treatment to numb the skin. We can also offer an injectable nerve block for complete anaesthesia if required.

Will I notice the difference right away?

Yes, the aesthetic results are immediate. You’ll see the results as soon as your appointment is over—and no one else needs to know! However, please note that with volume replacement, the maximal effect takes up to 6 weeks to be achieved. With some of the more advanced fillers, collagen production will also be stimulated; thus, your new natural collagen will be around long after the filler has been broken down.

How long will the effects last?

This depends on a number of factors including:

Age
The area you have had treated
Quantity of filler injected
Type of filler used
Quality of skin
Lifestyle
Healthiness

In general, HA fillers are expected to last around 12 months although we often see clients with ongoing visible benefits long after this period. The more advanced Belotero Volume is expected to last 12-18 months. Radiesse Plus also lasts around 18 months but its skin benefits last at least 3-5 years! Fillers in the lips generally last for less time as the richer blood supply to this area ensures the product is broken down quicker; around 6 months.

What type of Filler do you use and why?

We do NOT use any permanent fillers at our clinic. the two main types used are hyaluronic acid fillers (Belotero and Stylage) and Radiesse Plus (calcium hydroxyapatite). We use (Teoxane) Redensity II or Belotero Balance for the tear trough area as these are widely considered the best fillers to use in this area

What if I am taking medication?

Please inform your aesthetic practitioner before treatment if you are taking medication, even if it’s not a prescription medication. Taking anticoagulants and painkillers including aspirin and some vitamin supplements increase the chances of unwanted bruising. Your aesthetic practitioner will advise you accordingly.

Is there anything I need to know before I have the treatment?

We advise you to avoid using Alcohol, aspirin, Ibuprofen, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and a range of dietary supplements including; St. Johns Wort, fish oils, Gingko Biloba, and Vitamins C and E- may all contribute to bruising and are best avoided 24 hours before treatment (unless they are taken for chronic medical conditions).

All make up will need to be removed prior to treatment, so please come ‘fresh faced’ if possible. Treatment cannot be administered if there is an active skin infection, including cold sores etc.

Ask your medical practitioner if you have any concerns

Chelsea Labadini

Chelsea approached Perfect Skin Solutions looking to bring a little freshness back to the face along with some self-confidence. She also had a desire to achieve more fullness to her naturally thin lips but was very anxious not to have an over-done and unnatural look. She had a thorough consultation at Dr Patel’s Harley St clinic and a few weeks later, made her way down to Southsea for her treatment. Aside from her lips, Chelsea also trusted Dr Patel to place some product in her temples. She was surprised at this step but after it was done, on looking in the mirror she said: “I can really see the difference that has made…it has lifted my eyes and brows too!” Chelsea also had a little Bocouture for line prevention in the upper face. After the initial lip swelling went down (pics shown here are immediate results), she was ecstatic about the outcome and even filmed a short clip for her social media page.
