Temporal Lift
Temporal Lift in Turkey
If you desire a more exotic, slanted eye shape or simply want to lift the heavy outer corners of your eyebrows without a full forehead lift, the Temporal Lift is your answer. Often referred to as the “Bella Eyes” or “Fox Eyes” procedure, this surgery specifically targets the temples and the tail of the brow.
Dr. Rehber Marşil uses advanced endoscopic techniques in Antalya to gently pull the outer brow and eye corners upwards and outwards. The result is a “snatched,” youthful, and captivating gaze that transforms tired eyes into a striking feature.
What is a Temporal Lift (Lateral Brow Lift)?
A Temporal Lift is a specialized, minimally invasive procedure that lifts the outer one-third of the eyebrow and the temple area. Unlike a classic Brow Lift which raises the entire forehead, this surgery focuses solely on the lateral (outer) part.
It addresses:
Droopy Eyebrow Tails: Brows that slope downwards, creating a sad appearance.
Crow’s Feet: Smoothing out the fine lines at the corners of the eyes.
Hooding: Lifting the skin that hangs over the outer eyelid.
This is the gold-standard procedure for achieving the trendy “Cat Eye” or “Foxy Eye” aesthetic permanently.
Am I a Good Candidate?
This procedure is popular among both young patients seeking a specific aesthetic and mature patients wanting rejuvenation. You are a great candidate if:
Sad/Tired Eyes: The outer corners of your eyes or brows droop downwards.
Heavy Eyelids: You have heaviness specifically on the outer part of your upper lid.
Desire for “Fox Eyes”: You want that pulled-back, almond-shaped eye look (like Bella Hadid or Kendall Jenner).
Minimal Forehead Wrinkles: You don’t need a full forehead lift, just a lift at the temples.
Previous Botox Limits: Botox no longer gives you the lift you want in the brow tail.
Benefits: Why Choose This Procedure?
Dr. Marşil’s Temporal Lift offers a subtle yet powerful change to your overall expression:
Exotic Eye Shape: Creates a slight upward tilt to the eyes, making them look more almond-shaped and attractive.
Opened Up Gaze: Lifts the heavy skin hooding the outer eye, making eyes look larger.
No “Surprised” Look: Since the center of the brow remains untouched, you avoid the “startled” expression often associated with full brow lifts.
Hidden Incisions: Scars are completely concealed within the hairline.
Long-Lasting Results: Unlike thread lifts (which last months), this surgical lift provides permanent results for years.
Combine your stay with subtle facial rejuvenation.
Achieve lifted temples and a more youthful eye area using modern, minimally invasive techniques performed by experienced specialists.

Recovery Timeline
Safety & Risks
Temporal Lift in Antalya is considered a very safe procedure with high patient satisfaction. Dr. Rehber Marşil prioritizes nerve preservation and symmetry.
Temporary Numbness: You may feel numbness in the temple area, which recovers over weeks.
Tightness: A feeling of tightness when chewing or opening the mouth wide is common for the first few days.
Asymmetry: Minor differences during healing are normal, but final symmetry is the goal.
Hair Shock Loss: Extremely rare, but temporary hair thinning around the incision can occur (it grows back).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
01Is Temporal Lift the same as "Fox Eyes"?
Yes. The Temporal Lift is the surgical foundation for the “Fox Eye” or “Bella Eye” look. It provides a permanent version of what threads try to achieve temporarily.
02Where are the scars located?
The incisions are made about 2-3 cm behind the hairline in the temple area. Once healed, they are completely covered by your hair and are invisible.
03Will it change the shape of my eyes?
Yes, slightly. It gives an upward tilt to the outer corners, creating a more almond-like, exotic shape. If you only want rejuvenation without changing eye shape, Dr. Marşil will adjust the vector of the lift accordingly.
04Can I combine it with other surgeries?
Yes. It is frequently combined with Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery), Canthoplasty, or Cheek Lift (Midface Lift) for a total upper-face transformation.
