What is a hollow temple?
A hollow temple refers to the sunken or concave appearance around the temples or the sides of the forehead. This can result from facial bone structure, decreased fat volume with age, rapid weight loss, or other lifestyle factors. These hollows can make the face appear gaunt and shadowed, giving an overall tired or older look.
Why do hollow temples make you look tired and older?
They emphasize the cheekbones
When the temples appear deeply hollowed, the cheekbones naturally stand out more, making the face look harsh, less soft, and unbalanced. This can visibly age your appearance.
They make the eyes look tired
Hollow temples also affect the area around the eyes, making the eye sockets appear deeper and shadows more noticeable. As a result, the face looks fatigued—even if you're well-rested.
They add years to the overall facial appearance
Sunken temples are a sign of aging, as fat loss in the facial area is a natural part of growing older. The lack of volume results in less facial definition and more sagging.
They affect facial symmetry
A youthful and aesthetically pleasing face usually has a balanced and full appearance. Excessively hollow temples can throw off this harmony, making other parts of the face appear asymmetrical.
How to fix hollow temples for a fuller, younger look
There are several ways to correct hollow temples, but the most common and natural-looking approaches are temple filler injections and fat grafting. Both methods fill in the hollow area, smoothing the surface and making the face look softer, younger, and more balanced.
What is temple filler and how does it reshape the face?
Temple filler involves injecting hyaluronic acid (HA) into the hollow areas of the temples to restore facial symmetry and fullness. This non-surgical treatment provides instant rejuvenation without downtime, and results are visible immediately after the procedure.
How many CCs of filler are needed?
The amount of filler depends on the depth and severity of the hollow on each side. On average, doctors inject around 1–2 cc per side.
How long does temple filler last?
Temple fillers typically last between 8–12 months before the substance naturally breaks down and is absorbed by the body.
Does temple filler really reduce the look of prominent cheekbones?
Yes. By adding volume to the temples, the overall facial balance is restored, which in turn softens the appearance of prominent cheekbones.
Can temple filler migrate or shift?
If administered by a skilled doctor using genuine, high-quality filler—particularly firmer types designed for this area—migration is extremely unlikely. Proper filler choice and injection technique ensure the product stays in place.
Comparing temple filler vs. fat grafting
Can temple filler improve Feng Shui?
According to Feng Shui, the temple area is significant to one’s destiny and life energy. Known as the "Palace of Spouse" (夫妻宫 or "Sik Gung" in Chinese), this area symbolizes relationships, marriage, travel, and life opportunities.
Full, smooth temples—without depressions or hollows—are believed to indicate:
- Favorable destiny and easy access to good opportunities
- A harmonious and supportive relationship or marriage
- Balanced and prosperous life in terms of career, wealth, and health
How much does temple filler cost? What to consider before choosing a clinic
Hollow temples can affect the entire facial structure—making you look tired, emphasizing your cheekbones, and giving an older appearance. Correcting this with temple filler helps restore volume and balance, giving the face a more youthful, refreshed look.
Choosing a clinic with experienced doctors who use authentic, safe filler products is crucial. This ensures natural-looking results with no serious side effects.
