Temple Fillers in Myeongdong Seoul
Temple hollowing is one of the earliest and most aging signs on the face. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s board-certified dermatologists Dr. Seung-Jae Baek and Dr. Hoon-Sung Son restore temporal volume with precision filler placement, using imported hyaluronic acid and biostimulatory fillers to recreate youthful facial contours. First-visit imported filler from ₩359,000 per 1cc.
Why Do Temples Hollow and How Do Fillers Help?
Temple hollowing occurs as the temporal fat pad atrophies and the temporal bone becomes more visible with age, creating a sunken, skull-like appearance that adds years to the face. Temple fillers at RE:BERRY Myeongdong restore this lost volume in a 15-20 minute procedure using imported hyaluronic acid fillers from ₩359,000 per 1cc, instantly rejuvenating facial contours and creating a smoother transition from forehead to cheekbone.
The temples are one of the most overlooked areas in facial rejuvenation, yet temple hollowing is often the first structural sign of aging — appearing as early as the late 20s in some patients. As the deep temporal fat pad shrinks and the temporalis muscle thins, the bone becomes visible, creating shadowed indentations that make the face appear gaunt, tired, and older. Unlike wrinkles that sit on the surface, temple hollowing changes the fundamental geometry of the face: the upper face narrows, the cheekbones appear wider by contrast, and the overall silhouette shifts from a youthful oval to an aged pear or diamond shape. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Head Director Dr. Seung-Jae Baek approaches temple fillers as part of comprehensive facial contouring — assessing how temple volume loss interacts with forehead shape, brow position, and midface structure. This holistic approach, combined with Korea’s premium filler products and competitive pricing, is why international patients choose RE:BERRY for temple augmentation.

Temple Filler Treatment at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Step by Step
A precise, safe approach to temple volume restoration by board-certified specialists.
Facial Assessment & Volume Mapping
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek evaluates your facial structure from multiple angles, assessing temple depth, forehead curvature, brow position, and midface volume. He maps the temporal fossa anatomy including the superficial temporal artery and temporal branch of the facial nerve — critical for safe injection. A treatment plan is designed showing recommended filler volume (typically 1-3cc per temple) and product selection.
Anesthesia & Preparation
Topical numbing cream is applied to the temple area for 20-30 minutes. Most premium hyaluronic acid fillers also contain lidocaine for additional comfort during injection. The treatment area is marked with precise injection points to ensure symmetrical volume placement.
Precision Filler Injection
Using a cannula or fine needle technique (selected based on anatomy), Dr. Baek injects filler deep to the temporalis muscle fascia in the temple concavity. The cannula technique is preferred for safety as it reduces risk of vascular compromise. Filler is deposited in small boluses and molded to create a smooth, natural contour. The entire injection takes 15-20 minutes per side.
Aftercare & Follow-Up
Minimal downtime — possible mild swelling or tenderness for 2-3 days. Bruising is uncommon with cannula technique. Results are immediately visible and continue refining over 2 weeks as swelling settles. HA filler results last 12-18 months; Radiesse 15-24 months. Follow-up via WhatsApp (+82-2-776-2822) for international patients.

The Science Behind Temple Filler Treatment
Anatomical and clinical evidence supporting temple volume restoration.
Temporal Fossa Anatomy and Age-Related Volume Loss
The temporal fossa contains multiple tissue layers: skin, subcutaneous fat, the superficial temporal fascia (temporoparietal fascia), the deep temporal fascia, and the temporalis muscle overlying the temporal bone. Age-related changes include atrophy of the superficial and deep temporal fat pads, thinning of the temporalis muscle, and bone resorption of the temporal fossa rim. Mendelson and Wong (2012) demonstrated that temporal fat pad volume decreases by 15-20% per decade after age 30, making temple hollowing one of the earliest visible signs of facial aging. The superficial temporal artery and temporal branch of the facial nerve traverse this region, making anatomical knowledge essential for safe filler placement.
Filler Placement Depth and Safety
Safe temple filler injection targets the deep temporal fat pad — located between the superficial and deep temporal fascia — or the sub-fascial plane. Injection at this depth provides volume restoration while maintaining distance from the superficial temporal artery that runs in the subcutaneous plane. Sykes et al. (2015) reported that cannula-based injection with proper aspiration technique virtually eliminated vascular compromise events in temporal filler procedures. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Dr. Baek uses 25-gauge blunt cannulas for temple filler to maximize safety and minimize bruising.
Hyaluronic Acid vs Biostimulatory Fillers for Temples
High-viscosity hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm Voluma, Restylane Lyft) provide immediate structural volume with G’ values of 250-400 Pa, suitable for projection and contour restoration. Calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse) offers higher G’ (600+ Pa) for stronger structural support plus CaHA microsphere-stimulated neocollagenesis lasting 15-24 months. Poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra) and PDLLA (Juvelook Volume) are biostimulatory — they provide gradual volume through collagen stimulation rather than immediate volumization. Fabbrocini et al. (2019) showed that biostimulatory agents in the temporal fossa produced more natural tissue integration at 18 months compared to HA fillers alone, though HA provides superior immediate correction.

Expert answers from RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s filler specialists.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers imported filler at ₩359,000 per 1cc (first visit trial). Temples typically need 1-3cc per side depending on hollowing severity. Radiesse + Belotero + Juvelook comprehensive package is ₩1,560,000. All prices exclude VAT.
Mild temple hollowing typically needs 1cc per side. Moderate hollowing requires 1.5-2cc per side. Severe hollowing may need 2-3cc per side. Dr. Seung-Jae Baek at RE:BERRY Myeongdong assesses your specific volume loss and recommends the precise amount during consultation.
Minimal discomfort. RE:BERRY Myeongdong applies topical numbing cream for 20-30 minutes before injection. Premium fillers contain lidocaine for additional numbing. The cannula technique is less painful than needle injection. Most patients rate the experience 2-3 out of 10.
Hyaluronic acid fillers (Juvederm, Belotero) last 12-18 months in the temples. Radiesse lasts 15-24 months. Sculptra can provide results up to 25 months through collagen stimulation. The temple area retains filler well due to minimal facial movement.
Yes, when performed by experienced, board-certified dermatologists who understand temporal fossa anatomy. RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses cannula technique and aspiration protocol to minimize vascular risk. Dr. Baek and Dr. Son have extensive filler injection experience.
Minimal — most patients return to normal activities immediately. Possible mild swelling for 2-3 days. Bruising is uncommon with cannula technique. You can apply makeup 24 hours after treatment. Avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours.
Yes, if HA (hyaluronic acid) fillers are used. Hyaluronidase enzyme dissolves HA filler within hours. Radiesse and Sculptra cannot be dissolved. RE:BERRY Myeongdong primarily uses HA fillers for temple augmentation for this added safety benefit.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses genuine imported fillers from leading brands including Juvederm (Allergan), Belotero (Merz), and Radiesse (Merz). All products are KFDA-approved and sourced directly from manufacturers. Product selection depends on your specific needs.
Yes. RE:BERRY Myeongdong frequently combines temple fillers with forehead fillers, cheek fillers, Ultherapy or Sofwave lifting, and laser toning. A comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation produces the most natural-looking results.
Temple hollowing can begin in the late 20s to early 30s. Most patients notice significant hollowing by their 40s. There is no minimum age — if temple hollowing is visible and concerns you, treatment is appropriate. Dr. Baek assesses whether fillers are the right solution during consultation.
When injected by an experienced practitioner like Dr. Seung-Jae Baek, temple fillers look completely natural. The goal is to restore volume that was previously there, not add artificial fullness. Patients typically look refreshed and youthful rather than ‘filled.’
Yes. Restoring temporal volume creates a subtle lateral brow lift effect by supporting the tissue that descends with age. This is a secondary benefit of temple fillers that contributes to a more youthful, open-eyed appearance.
Yes. Male temples typically have more prominent temporal ridges and require filler placement that maintains masculine contours. Female temples benefit from softer, rounder volume restoration. RE:BERRY Myeongdong customizes technique and volume for each patient’s gender and facial structure.
Yes. RE:BERRY Myeongdong provides full multilingual support in 8 languages. Temple filler is a single-session treatment ideal for international visitors. Consultation, treatment, and aftercare are completed in one visit. Follow-up via WhatsApp.
Traditional fillers (HA, Radiesse) provide immediate volume. Sculptra is a biostimulatory agent that gradually builds volume through collagen stimulation over 2-3 months. Some patients prefer the gradual, natural-looking improvement of Sculptra. RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers both options.
While some patients anecdotally report reduced tension headaches after temple fillers (possibly from reduced temporalis muscle strain), this is not a medical indication for the procedure. Temple fillers at RE:BERRY Myeongdong are performed for aesthetic volume restoration.
A blunt-tipped cannula is inserted through a single entry point and advanced beneath the skin. Unlike sharp needles, cannulas push vessels aside rather than piercing them, significantly reducing bruising and vascular complication risk. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s doctors are skilled in both techniques and select the safest approach.
Asymmetry is carefully managed at RE:BERRY Myeongdong. Dr. Baek assesses your natural facial asymmetry before treatment and adjusts filler volume per side accordingly. A follow-up assessment 2 weeks post-treatment allows for any fine-tuning if needed.
Yes. You can fly within hours of temple filler treatment. Some patients prefer to wait 24-48 hours to ensure no complications, but flying does not affect filler results. This makes temple fillers ideal for tourists visiting Seoul.
Avoid blood-thinning supplements (fish oil, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba) and NSAIDs (aspirin, ibuprofen) for 5-7 days before treatment to minimize bruising risk. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before. Arrive with clean skin, no makeup on the treatment area.
Korea offers premium imported fillers at 40-60% less than Japan, Singapore, or Western countries. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s imported filler at ₩359,000/cc (first visit) uses the same Juvederm and Belotero products available at clinics charging $800-1,200 per cc overseas.
Yes. Botox in the temporalis muscle can reduce muscle bulk for patients with a wide jaw appearance, while fillers restore volume in the temporal fossa. RE:BERRY Myeongdong offers combined filler + Botox protocols for comprehensive facial contouring.
Filler migration in the temples is extremely rare due to the fascial compartments that contain the product. Proper injection depth (sub-fascial or within the deep fat pad) further reduces any risk. RE:BERRY Myeongdong’s experienced injectors place filler precisely in the correct anatomical plane.
RE:BERRY Myeongdong uses before photos and reference images to discuss expected outcomes. While digital simulation is not standard for filler, Dr. Baek’s extensive experience allows him to give you a realistic preview of what temple restoration will achieve for your specific facial structure.
