Case report: temporal hollowness augmentation with PEGylated fillers

Abstract

The use of fillers based on hyaluronic acid in correcting deficits in the upper part of the face, especially in the temporal area, can significantly improve the balance and appearance of the face. Such a procedure, apart from unquestionable aesthetic advantages, carries significant risks, including contour irregularities, vascular occlusion, skin necrosis, hair loss, blindness, stroke, and non-thrombotic pulmonary embolism. To increase the safety and precision of the volumization of the temple area, the technique of administration of the preparation, as well as the product itself, should be carefully selected.
