Temporal Lift

What Is a Temporal Lift?

A temporal lift, also known as a temporal brow lift, is a cosmetic procedure designed to elevate the outer corners of the eyebrows and rejuvenate the temple area. This technique offers a more youthful, refreshed appearance by reducing fine lines and sagging skin caused by aging or genetics. As collagen and elastin levels decrease over time, the brows may droop, creating a tired look. A temporal lift surgery can dramatically lift this area, enhancing facial symmetry and brightness.

Is There a Scar After Temporal Lift?

• Non-surgical methods leave no scars.

• Thread or surgical lifts involve minimal sutures, typically hidden within the hairline, making them virtually invisible.

Is Temporal Lift the Same as Brow Lift?

Yes, temporal lift and brow lift are often used interchangeably. The focus is on elevating the outer brow and smoothing the upper facial region.

Can I Combine a Temporal Lift With Other Procedures?

Absolutely. Many patients choose to combine a temporal lift with:

• Cheek lift

• Forehead lift

• Brow bone contouring

These combinations can enhance overall facial balance and aesthetics.

Age Limitations for Temporal Lift

The procedure is recommended for individuals aged 23 and above, as facial bones and skin structure are typically more stable after this age.

Not Sure About Surgery?

If you’re uncertain, we suggest starting with non-surgical options like Botox or Plasma Jet to explore the effects before committing to surgery.
