BACKGROUND Cosmetically unappealing temporal volume loss can develop as a result of facial aging. OBJECTIVE To present an evidenced-based approach towards safe and effective temple filling. METHODS We review the underlying anatomy of the temple and optimal anatomy-driven injection techniques associated with temple volumization. RESULTS Multiple safe injection planes exist to achieve temporal volumization. CONCLUSION A thorough understanding of optimal injection techniques based on the underlying anatomy mitigates the incidence and severity of adverse events, enhancing treatment success.
