How to improve sunken temples in women
In general, temple hollowing in women may be caused by lifestyle habits, genetic factors, aging, bone structure, trauma, etc. It can be improved in daily life by adjusting lifestyle habits, modifying diet, and massaging the temples. For more noticeable results, treatments such as hyaluronic acid fillers, collagen fillers, autologous fat grafting, implant insertion, or thread lifting may be considered, with the appropriate method chosen based on individual circumstances.
Maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid staying up late, and ensure sufficient sleep. Eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and proteins—such as fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean meats—to prevent loss of subcutaneous facial fat. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, and engage in moderate physical exercise to maintain a healthy weight and skin condition. Regularly massaging the temples can promote local blood circulation and help alleviate the appearance of temple hollowing. However, note that massage effects may be limited and require long-term consistency.
