ABOUT DIMPLE CREATION SURGERY

Dimple creation surgery, which is also referred to as a dimpleplasty, is a cosmetic surgery that creates dimples in the cheeks. Natural dimples are caused by a small defect in the cheek muscles, and the surgeon can create this by making a small hole in the cheek wall. This is performed inside the mouth, so that there is no external scarring. The procedure is relatively quick, and is usually performed under a local anesthetic.

After the procedure, the dimples may initially be visible at all times. After a few weeks, they should relax into a natural position so that the dimple is only visible when smiling, as with natural dimples.

The procedure has increased in popularity in recent years, with more people in search of an eye-catching smile. Dimple creation surgery is a relatively minor procedure, and with an experienced surgeon patients are unlikely to experience any complications.

BEFORE DIMPLE CREATION SURGERY ABROAD

Ahead of the procedure, the mouth is cleaned to reduce the risk of infection. The specialist will usually advise the patient to avoid smoking ahead of the procedure.

HOW IS IT PERFORMED

The surgeon will begin by injecting a local anesthetic into the cheeks and allowing time for it to take effect. The position of the dimples will be marked and the patient can check that they are happy with them.

Once the cheeks are numb, the surgeon will proceed. The mouth is opened, and the surgeon will usually use a biopsy punch tool to remove a small hole from the inside of the cheek wall. This tool removes a small amount of tissue, allowing the skin to drop into the weakened area. The surgeon will then apply a dissolvable suture to finish the dimple creation.

Anesthesia

Local anesthetic.

Procedure duration

The Dimple Creation Surgery takes 30 to 60 minutes.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER DIMPLE CREATION SURGERY

Post procedure care
