What is Dimpleplasty?

A dimpleplasty is a cosmetic procedure that creates permanent dimples in the cheeks. Dimples are small indentations in the skin that occur when the muscles contract. Dimples are most commonly located on both sides of the face, near the corners of the mouth.

The dimpleplasty procedure involves making small incisions inside the mouth and then using sutures to permanently secure the dimples in place. This procedure can be done as an outpatient procedure, and recovery time is typically short, with patients able to return to their normal activities within a few days.

If you’re considering a dimpleplasty, it’s important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience performing this procedure. During your consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your facial structure and skin tone to determine if you’re a good candidate for dimpleplasty. They will also discuss your goals and expectations for the surgery, and provide you with realistic expectations for results.

Benefits of Dimpleplasty

There are many benefits of dimpleplasty, which is why this procedure has become increasingly popular in recent years. Dimples are considered a cosmetic facial feature, and as such, dimpleplasty can help improve someone’s appearance and boost their self-confidence. Additionally, dimples can also help to slim down the face, as they create an optical illusion of depth.

Dimpleplasty is a relatively simple and quick procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia. The recovery period is usually short, with most people able to return to their normal activities within a few days. There is also minimal scarring from the procedure, as the incisions made are small and well-hidden within the natural creases of the skin.

Procedure & Recovery Guidelines

If you’re considering dimpleplasty, also called a dimple creation procedure, you’re not alone. This cosmetic surgery has been on the rise in recent years as more and more people seek to enhance their natural features.

While dimples are traditionally thought of as being located on the cheeks, they can actually form anywhere on the face. Some people have them on the chin or even the nose.

The procedure itself is relatively simple and quick, usually taking less than an hour. It’s typically done under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during the surgery.

After making small incisions inside your mouth, your surgeon will create pockets in your cheek fat. Then, they’ll insert surgical threads (called sutures) through these pockets and tie them to the muscles beneath your skin. As the sutures heal, they’ll create indentations in your skin that give the appearance of dimples.

You can expect some swelling and bruising after the surgery, but this should subside within a week or two. You may also experience some numbness in the treated area, but this is usually temporary and will go away within a few months.

Cost and Insurance Coverage

The cost of dimpleplasty varies depending on the type of procedure you choose and the location of the surgeon. Typically, surgeons charge between $500 and $1,500 for this procedure. Most health insurance companies do not cover the cost of surgery for cosmetic reasons. However, if your dimples are causing you pain or making it difficult to eat or speak, your insurance company may cover the cost of surgery.

 

Aftercare Instructions

Aftercare instructions for dimpleplasty are relatively simple and easy to follow. First, it is important to keep the area clean and free of any dirt or debris. The best way to do this is to gently wash the area with warm soap and water. It is also important to avoid picking or scratching at the incision site as this can lead to infection or scarring.

Next, it is important to keep the incision site dry and protected from the sun. This means avoiding strenuous activity or excessive sweating that could cause the incision site to become wet or irritated. Additionally, it is important to apply sunscreen to the incision site when outdoors to protect it from ultraviolet (UV) rays.

It is important to follow up with your plastic surgeon for any post-operative appointments and check-ups. These appointments will help your surgeon assess your healing process and ensure that you are on track for a successful recovery.

Before and After Photos/Videos

Some people are born with dimples, while others develop them later in life. Dimples are small indentations in the skin that can occur on the cheeks, chin, or both.

There are two types of dimples: permanent and transient. Permanent dimples are caused by a genetic defect and are present at birth. Transient dimples, on the other hand, form when the skin is stretched and then snaps back into place. This can happen when a person smiles or laughs.

Dimples are considered to be aesthetically pleasing and many people seek to have them surgically implanted. This procedure is called dimpleplasty.

During dimpleplasty, a small incision is made inside the mouth and a piece of silicone is inserted into the skin to create an indentation. The silicone will eventually dissolve on its own, but the indentation will remain.

The recovery from dimpleplasty is typically quick and easy. Most people feel well enough to return to their normal activities within a few days. There may be some swelling and bruising around the incisions, but this usually goes away within a week or two.

The results ofdimpleplasty are immediately noticeable and typically last a lifetime. If you’re considering this procedure, be sure to consult with an experienced plastic surgeon who can answer all of your questions and help you achieve your desired results.
