Temporal Artery Mapping With Microvascular Imaging: Anatomical Considerations for Filler Injections

The authors' findings demonstrate that superficial and deep temporal arteries may run at variable depths, sometimes close to the skin or periosteum. These variations should be considered in planning temple filler injections. Microvascular imaging may assist in visualizing these vessels and identifying higher-risk zones.

Abstract

The authors' findings demonstrate that superficial and deep temporal arteries may run at variable depths, sometimes close to the skin or periosteum. These variations should be considered in planning temple filler injections. Microvascular imaging may assist in visualizing these vessels and identifying higher-risk zones.
