    GlossaryTemporal Region (temporal area)

    side part of the head near the temples

    The temporal region, also known as the temporal area, refers to the side part of the head located near the temples, extending from the front of the ear to the area above the cheekbone. This region is significant in both medical and cosmetic contexts, as it houses the temporal lobe of the brain, which is involved in processing auditory information and memory, and is also a common area for hair thinning or loss, particularly in conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
