Dimpleplasty

If you are interested in having dimples on your cheeks or making your existing dimples more prominent, then you might be a suitable candidate for dimpleplasty. To confirm if this is the right procedure for you, it’s essential to consult a professional plastic surgeon who can analyze your individual needs and health background.

Dimpleplasty is usually done with the use of local anesthesia. This involves the surgeon making a tiny incision in the cheek and then stitching the skin to the underlying muscle to produce a dimple. The procedure is relatively straightforward and is normally completed within an hour.

The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour to complete.

Dimpleplasty can typically be carried out on an outpatient basis, meaning there is no requirement to stay in hospital post-procedure.

After your dimpleplasty procedure, it’s normal to experience swelling and bruising which will usually subside within a few days. You may also have some mild discomfort which can be alleviated with pain medications prescribed by your surgeon. It is important to follow their instructions for caring for the treated area, as well as avoiding strenuous activity while recovering.

Although dimpleplasty will leave small scars, these should be well-hidden inside the cheek and will usually fade over time. The incisions used for the procedure are small, creating minimal visible scarring so the results are natural-looking.

After a dimpleplasty procedure, most people can return to their daily activities within a few days. To ensure the best possible recovery and results, avoid strenuous activity and adhere to any post-procedure instructions given by your surgeon. Caring for the treated area properly will make all the difference!
