Collagen for filling the temples

Treatment Effect

Typically, noticeable results appear immediately after injection, with the temples becoming fuller and facial contours softening. Over time, collagen is gradually absorbed and metabolized by the body, and the effects generally last around 6 to 12 months. Multiple treatment sessions can extend the duration of these effects, helping to maintain a fuller appearance in the temples for a longer period.

Is this suitable for me?

This procedure is suitable for individuals with sunken temples or insufficiently full facial contours who wish to improve their facial appearance without surgery. However, it is not recommended for those with allergic tendencies, particularly allergies to collagen; individuals suffering from severe systemic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, or blood clotting disorders; and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Price

Price

The price of collagen for temple augmentation varies depending on the brand, dosage, region, and clinic. Generally, each unit of collagen costs between 1,000,000 and 3,300,000 Korean won, and a single treatment may require 1 to 3 units, resulting in a total cost ranging from approximately 1,000,000 to 9,900,000 Korean won.

Expected Outcome

Expected Results

After injection, sunken temples can be significantly improved, resulting in a rounder, fuller facial contour and enhanced overall facial aesthetics. However, outcomes vary based on individual constitution, injection technique, and the quality of collagen. Results are not permanent and will gradually diminish over time.

Combination Therapy

Combination Therapy

This treatment can be combined with procedures such as hyaluronic acid fillers and botulinum toxin injections. When combined with hyaluronic acid fillers, it allows for the selection of more suitable filler materials based on the specific needs of different areas, achieving superior filling results. When combined with botulinum toxin, it not only addresses temporal hollowing but also relaxes surrounding muscles to reduce dynamic wrinkles.

Adverse Effects and Complications

Side Effects and Complications

Mild side effects such as localized redness, swelling, pain, and bruising may occur and typically resolve spontaneously within a few days. In rare cases, allergic reactions may arise, manifesting as rashes, itching, or difficulty breathing. Complications such as nodules or hard lumps may also develop, which are often related to injection technique and collagen quality.

Side Effects

Common side effects include localized swelling, pain, and bruising, which generally subside within 1–2 weeks. Hyperpigmentation may also occur, usually fading spontaneously within several weeks or months. In extremely rare cases, severe allergic reactions may develop, requiring immediate medical attention.

Self-Diagnosis of Symptoms

If localized redness, swelling, or pain persists or worsens 3–5 days after injection, accompanied by fever or skin ulceration, or if systemic symptoms such as difficulty breathing, rashes, or itching occur, complications or allergic reactions may be present, and medical attention should be sought promptly.
