How Does Temporal Lift Work?
A temporal lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to lift and tighten the outer brow and temple area. By making small, discreet incisions near the hairline, the surgeon repositions the skin and underlying tissues to elevate drooping brows and smooth wrinkles. This procedure helps open up the eye area, giving a more youthful, refreshed appearance without the need for a full forehead lift. Local or twilight anesthesia is typically used, and recovery time is usually short.

Temporal Lift
A temporal lift focuses on lifting the outer brow and temple area to create a more youthful, refreshed appearance. Small incisions are made near the hairline, allowing the surgeon to lift and reposition skin and tissues, smoothing wrinkles and reducing sagging.
Typically done under local or twilight anesthesia, this minimally invasive procedure has a shorter recovery time than a full forehead lift. Incisions are hidden in the hairline to minimize scarring. It can also be combined with other treatments like eyelid surgery or Botox for enhanced results.
