Dimpleplasty Surgery
Free ConsultationDimpleplasty is a safe, minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that creates permanent cheek dimples, enhancing facial appearance with natural charm. The procedure is personalized to each patient's unique facial structure and delivers subtle, attractive results that complement their natural features.
- *What is Dimpleplasty?
Dimpleplasty creates natural-looking cheek dimples through a minimally invasive surgical technique. A surgeon makes a small incision inside the cheek and places a suture that connects the inner skin (dermis) to the underlying cheek muscle, forming a permanent dimple.
- *Benefits of Dimple Surgery
The procedure enhances facial aesthetics by adding characteristic dimples, known for increasing charm, approachability, and the perception of a youthful, warm smile. Results are immediate and natural in appearance.
- *Who is a Candidate?
People who wish to have permanent dimples and are in good general health without active facial skin conditions are ideal candidates. A pre-operative consultation will confirm suitability and discuss the desired dimple placement and depth.
- *Procedure Overview
The procedure takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia in most cases. A small incision is made inside the cheek (no external scar), and a dissolving suture creates the permanent dimple effect.
- *Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery is brief — most patients experience only mild soreness and swelling for a few days and can return to normal activities almost immediately. Full and final results, once all swelling resolves, are typically visible within 3 months.
- *Alternatives to Surgery
For those who prefer non-permanent options, temporary dimple effects can be achieved through contouring makeup techniques. However, these do not provide the lasting results of dimpleplasty.
