How Long Do Temple Lift Results Last?

At Cruise Plastic Surgery, Dr. Joseph T. Cruise specializes in facial cosmetic procedures to help people look and feel their best. One of our most popular treatments is the temple lift, which helps to rejuvenate the outer brow and eye area to create a more youthful appearance. 

Let’s learn more about this facial rejuvenation procedure and the benefits it offers.

Introducing the Temple Lift

The temple lift, also known as a temporal brow lift, is a facial rejuvenation procedure that is designed to reduce drooping of the outer brow/eye region. It creates a subtle but impactful improvement without looking overdone. 

During the procedure, Dr. Cruise makes a small incision along each side of the hairline, just above the temple region. He then tightens and lifts the tissue of the outer brows. The end result is a smoother look to the outer eyes and brows and a more refreshed, youthful appearance. It may also be combined with an upper blepharoplasty or lower blepharoplasty for even better results.

Benefits of the Temple Lift

The temple lift procedure can offer a number of benefits, including:

• Reducing a drooping brow
• Reducing hooding of the upper eyelid
• Creating a more youthful and refreshed appearance
• Lifting the brows to create a more open, awake look
• Improving the overall look of the face
• Smoothing crow’s feet 

How Long Will Temple Lift Results Last?

The results of a temple lift can last for years, depending on factors such as your age, genetics, and lifestyle. Patients will enjoy the results of their temple lift for many years, especially when performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon.

It is possible you may need a touch-up procedure later down the road to maintain the results. Non-surgical treatments like such as Botox can also help maintain your results and prevent fine lines and wrinkles from re-forming.

Other Factors That Can Affect How Long Temple Lift Results Last

The results of a temple lift can also be affected by a number of other factors, including your age, lifestyle, and skincare habits. Younger patients tend to have longer-lasting results, as their skin is more elastic and able to maintain the results of the procedure. Patients who smoke or are exposed to excessive sunlight may find that the results of their temple lift don’t last as long. If you have an effective anti-aging skincare regimen in place, your results may last for longer.

The Best Way to Maintain Your Results

The best way to maintain the results of a temple lift is to practice a healthy lifestyle. This includes eating a balanced diet, getting regular exercise, and avoiding smoking and excessive sun exposure. Taking care of your skin is also important, especially with the use of sunscreen daily, as this can help to keep your skin healthy and youthful looking. Make sure to consult Dr. Cruise and his team for suggestions about how to maintain your results.
