Many people dream about such facial peculiarity as cheek dimples. Contemporary cosmetic surgery is perfectly capable of delivering this facial feature to anyone who wishes to have it.
This surgery is allowed for anyone regardless of cheek shape and fullness. Dimples can be made deep or shallow, round or oval. This is a really simple and safe procedure, and takes up to 30 minutes to complete. It does not require supervised recovery and patient is free to go right after stitches are put in place. As the procedure is minimally invasive and performed with advanced surgical technique there are no scars in the aftermath.
In the process of dimpleplasty an invisible suture is placed between the inner surface of cheek and skin of cheek. This suture pulls at the tissues of the cheek, and this leads to formation of a dimple. The cosmetic surgeon selects depth and configuration of the suture to create a dimple in accordance to the patient’s desires. In such a way dimple depth, shape and reactiveness can be fine-tuned. Also it is possible to create dimples that are only visible when you are smiling.
Usually a topical or injectional local anaesthetic is applied, unless the patient asks for general anaesthesia. A section of cheek muscle is resected, and that incision is sutured. The sutures create tension between the inner and outer surfaces of cheek. The whole process takes approximately 30 minutes and is painless.
