What Causes Indentation In My Temple?

Looks like I've lost about 10 pounds in the last month and half, and my temples, especially the left, is indented. I've lost weight before, but never have my temples went inward. I am taking a protein supplement, and I've seem to gain a few pounds back, but the indention is still there...could there be and underlying reason why?

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic

Weight loss can be associated with indentation in the temple region, it is not uncommon so it is likely a reaction to this.

For now, you can monitor for any changes.

I hope this helps
