Temporal Lift
Istanbul

“In aesthetics, the most important principle for me is trust and naturalness; I offer each patient a personalised, realistic and balanced plan.”

— Op. Dr. Selman Taşkın · Specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery

A temporal lift surgically raises a drooping outer brow tail and the temple area to create a more open, refreshed, youthful eye region. It is done through small incisions hidden in the hair and, unlike a botox brow lift, gives a lasting result.

What Is a Temporal Lift and Who Is It For?

It is for people with an age-related drooping outer brow tail, a heavy/hooded upper-outer eyelid and a tired look. Because it targets only the outer brow and temple, it is a smaller procedure than a classic brow/forehead lift.

Whereas a botox brow lift gives a temporary effect, a temporal lift moves the tissue up surgically for a lasting result. It is often planned together with eyelid surgery.

Procedure and Recovery

It is done under local anaesthesia or sedation and is short. There is mild swelling and tightness in the first days; sutures are removed at 5–7 days. Swelling settles in 1–2 weeks.

Istanbul stands out in aesthetic-surgery tourism with experienced plastic surgeons, accredited operating theatres and affordable pricing. All surgery is performed by Op. Dr. Selman Taşkın.

Temporal Lift — Frequently Asked Questions

Botox temporarily relaxes the muscle for a slight lift; a temporal lift surgically moves the tissue up for a lasting result. Surgery is preferred for a marked brow droop.
Because the incisions are within the temple hairline, they are not visible from outside; they fade further over time.
It is usually done under local anaesthesia or light sedation; it is painless and quick.
Sutures are removed at 5–7 days; swelling settles in 1–2 weeks. Most people return to daily life within days.
Because the tissue is moved up surgically, the result lasts for many years; natural changes can occur as ageing continues.
Yes; if there is also excess upper eyelid skin, it is planned with blepharoplasty to open the gaze comprehensively.
The improvement in the brow line is noticed early, but it can take a few weeks for swelling to fully resolve.
You feel no pain during the procedure thanks to anaesthesia; post-operative tightness and mild soreness are easily controlled with painkillers.
Rarely, scar visibility, temporary sensory change, asymmetry and temporary hair shedding at the temple are possible. Correct technique and an experienced team reduce the risks.
The scope of the procedure, whether eyelid surgery is added and anaesthesia determine the cost. Send a photo of the eye/brow area for a transparent, all-inclusive quote.
