Our outstanding experience with addressing hollow temples
As we age, bone density depletes across the face leading to the appearance of sunken and hollow temples. Restoring the area can be challenging, as makeup techniques are often ineffective, and skincare products are unable to address the underlying structural changes. While surgical interventions are an option, they can be costly, invasive and daunting for many individuals seeking a solution.
Sharing his techniques and results with other Doctors and Nurses, Dr. Scott Allison attends domestic and international conferences, passionate about achieving exceptional results. Our team at Ascension are trained by Dr. Allison, using effective, patient-tailored techniques to maintain a high level of care.
“Hollow temples are the most commonly overlooked sign of ageing. As this area becomes more concave, it causes the brow to drop and can make a person’s face appear skeletal. By softly re-volumising the temples, I am able to support the brow and provide a more youthful appearance to the periorbital area.” Dr. Scott Allison.

Areas of concern /
Multiple factors can contribute to the development of hollow temples, and it is crucial for your Practitioner to thoroughly evaluate the underlying cause of the hollowing to determine the most suitable treatment for you. During your consultation, we work with you to understand your facial anatomy and unique aesthetic needs and goals. A personalised treatment plan will then be developed to address hollow temple concerns.
Temporal Hollowing
When temporal hollowing occurs due to natural ageing, the face can assume a concave appearance that lacks aesthetic symmetry. Be cautious of practitioners who recommend restoring volume solely to the cheeks, as this may further highlight facial asymmetry.
Brows
As we age, the outer area of the brow can naturally fall away creating a more stern appearance or ‘droop’. We can explore how best to support your brows, improve their structure and prevent downward shifts or brow ptosis.
Ogee Curve
The Ogee curve is an ‘S’ shaped contour found in the midface, and is influenced by your forehead, temple and cheek definition. Restoring temple volume loss maintains this curve to promote a sense of wellness and facial harmony. Minimally invasive treatments to the temple area, demand little to no downtime and can effectively improve common signs of ageing without the need for surgery.
Your consultation at our Brisbane clinic
During your initial consultation, various aspects will be discussed to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the procedure and your specific needs. The consultation allows us to discuss expectations openly and create a treatment plan you can approve.
Firstly, your cosmetic concerns and treatment goals will be discussed. We will listen attentively to gain insight into what you hope to achieve through treating your under-eye concerns. This discussion allows us to explain what can be realistically achieved.
Next, we will thoroughly examine your facial features, asking about the areas of your face where you have concerns regarding temporal hollowing. We will carefully evaluate your facial anatomy, taking note of bone structure, fat pads and skin laxity. This assessment helps us to determine the appropriate treatment plan required. We may also inquire about any allergies or previous cosmetic treatments. This information is crucial for determining your eligibility for the procedure.
The consultation will also involve a discussion about the procedure itself, including the recommended treatments, the expected duration of the results, and any potential risks or side effects. We can explain the technique involved, ensuring you understand the process and know what to expect during and after the treatment.
Finally, the financial aspect will be discussed. We will provide information about the cost of the treatment, any potential additional expenses, and the expected longevity of the results. We can also discuss the option of follow-up treatments and maintenance. Your treatment costs will depend on the personalised details of your procedure, so it is best to wait until having your consultation before making calculations.
Clinical Pathwaysand Recommendations
Recommended Treatments
At Ascension, we provide comprehensive cosmetic consultations, where your comfort, aesthetic preferences, facial anatomy and skin health are all considered to provide an ideal treatment plan tailored to your needs. You may benefit from a combination approach utilising different treatment methods and a number of sessions, which we will discuss during your consultation.
Thread Lifts
Thread Lifts are minimally invasive and aim to both lift and tighten the skin of the face and neck. The thread lift is a semi-permanent solution designed to promote dermal remodelling by stimulating new collagen, creating more structure and lift in the face. This new collagen lasts several years, making thread lifts a long-term solution.
WonderFace
WonderFace is a groundbreaking, non-invasive facial toning and rejuvenation treatment that lifts, sculpts and smooths the face in just 30 minutes.As the only treatment to synchronise neuromuscular stimulation with radiofrequency (RF) technology, WonderFace works beyond the surface, targeting both the skin and underlying muscles for real, lasting results. Neuromuscular stimulation strengthens and tones facial muscles, enhancing definition and restoring volume, while RF technology boosts collagen and elastin production to firm and tighten the skin.
There is no recovery time after a Wonderface session and results can be seen immediately with ongoing improvements.
