A subtle lateral lift that opens and refreshes the eyes.
A temporal lift addresses the earliest, most visible signs of ageing around the outer brow and lateral eye area — drooping brow tails, heaviness and deepening crow's feet — through small incisions concealed within the hairline. The result is a fresher, more rested look.

Surgical Technique
Short incisions are placed within the temporal hairline. The deep temporal plane is released and the lateral brow is elevated and secured, avoiding any tension on the skin. Often combined with upper blepharoplasty for complete eye-area rejuvenation.
A temporal lift is a lateral (side) brow lift — it targets the outer brow and eye area with minimal incisions. A full endoscopic brow lift addresses the entire forehead and central brow. Dr. Barutcu will recommend which is right for you at consultation.
A temporal lift is frequently combined with upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a facelift for a fully harmonious result. Combined procedures are planned to keep total operative time safe.
