Dimple Creation
Dimples are considered a sign of good luck, apart from adding beauty to a smile. They can be created on the cheeks and also on other parts of the face like the chin without any external incisions. This procedure is safe, reliable and easily reproducible. As no tissue is excised, chances of bleeding and haematoma formation are negligible. Patient satisfaction rate in this procedure is very high, and even after long periods of time, they continue to be pleased with their surgically created dimples.
HOW ARE DIMPLES FORMED?
Dimples are formed when there is a defect in the cheek muscle (buccinator muscle). The skin overlying this defect is stuck down to the underlying connective tissue which creates a dimple in the skin with a change in facial expression, like smiling.
Candidacy
Anyone who desires to have dimples is a candidate for this procedure.

Inpatient/Outpatient Procedure
It is usually an outpatient procedure, that is, the patient can go home the same day.
The stitches dissolve and get absorbed within 2 weeks and the skin flattens out creating a normal appearance as earlier. Post-surgical care as always should be maintained. The oral cavity is a source of bacteria and hence great care has to be taken. An antiseptic mouth wash should be used a couple of times a day to keep the site as germ-free as possible.
