The eyes are a very sensitive area to treat as the skin around the eyes is quite thin. However, many modern dermal fillers contain anaesthetic to help ease any discomfort. We can also use a Topical anaesthetic to further aid this procedure should you be particularly sensitive. Most patients find this treatment to be comfortable and without pain, likened much like a series of light pin pricks to the skin.

As with any injectable treatment, there is a possibility of some minor side effects. Most commonly, these may include: bruising, swelling, redness, tenderness, itching and sensitivity at the point of application. Any potential side effects will be discussed during a pre-treatment consultation with Dr. Rupert.

Many clients are unaware that concavity of the temples affects the overall dimensions and fullness of the face, but by smoothing out the surface between the eyes and the hairline, the complexion in its entirety can look refreshed and revived. The eyes often betray our age, and the laughter and fun we have had along the way can also contribute to wrinkle production, particularly as the skin starts to sag or begins to droop. Following the treatment, you can expect the area around the eye to appear smoothed and the skin to be stretched and lifted which will give you a younger appearance to the eyes. The hollows will be filled which will give the face a more volumized look, so you can be sure that you will leave VIVA Skin Clinics looking more youthful, alert and bright.

Temple filler treatment (when administered by a professional injector) is perfectly safe. This is a temporary treatment in which we use products that are naturally dispersed by the body over time. Dermal fillers can also be dissolved should you be unhappy with your final result. It is important that you are only treated by a highly qualified practitioner. Any risks will be discussed during a pre-treatment consultation, though they are few. We only use the most effective and safest FDA approved products at VIVA Skin Clinics.
