What is Temple Lift?
A temple lift (temporal lift) elevates the outer brow and tightens the temple area to reduce sagging at the outer corners of the eyes, softening crow's feet and restoring a refreshed, youthful look. It is a more focused alternative to a full facelift, targeting the lateral brow and upper cheek region. MedProper performs the procedure in Istanbul's JCI and TEMOS-accredited hospital within a convenient all-inclusive package.
How Does Temple Lift Work?
- 1Your surgeon evaluates the degree of temporal sagging and brow position during a preoperative consultation.
- 2Under local anaesthesia with sedation, small incisions are made within the hairline at the temples.
- 3The underlying tissue is gently released and lifted to elevate the outer brow and smooth the temple area.
- 4The tissue is secured in its new position with absorbable fixation devices, and the incisions are closed.
- 5A light dressing is applied; most patients return to their hotel the same day.
Who is a Good Candidate for Temple Lift?
- Adults with drooping at the outer brow or heavy, tired-looking eyes caused by temporal descent
- Patients in their 30s to 60s seeking a subtle rejuvenation without a full facelift
- Non-smokers or individuals who can stop smoking at least two weeks before and after surgery
- People in good overall health who want a natural, refreshed appearance
- Those looking for a less invasive procedure with a shorter recovery than a full brow lift

Frequently Asked Questions
A temple lift focuses specifically on the outer brow and lateral eye area, while a full brow lift elevates the entire forehead. The temple lift is less invasive with a faster recovery.
No. The incisions are placed within the existing hairline and the hair-bearing skin is repositioned, not removed, so the hairline remains unchanged.
Yes. It is frequently combined with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift for a comprehensive rejuvenation.
Three to four nights is usually sufficient, covering preoperative preparation, the procedure, and a follow-up appointment before departure.
The all-inclusive package covers the surgical team, anaesthesia, hospital facility, hotel accommodation, airport and clinic transfers, medications, and 12 months of remote aftercare.
