Dimple Creation Surgery
A natural dimple is usually formed when there is a small defect in the cheek musculature (most often the buccinator muscle). Dimple creation surgery can simulate this naturally occurring process. To create it, a small painless incision is made on the inside of your cheek.
When formed naturally, a dimple is caused by a small defect in your facial muscles. This defect causes your skin to become connected to your deep facial muscles. As a result, the skin is pulled in when these muscles contract as you smile, creating the appearance of a dimple.
Recent innovations in facial plastic surgery now make it possible to create this effect by performing a simple, straightforward surgical procedure.
A facial indentation can be achieved through cosmetic surgery that links the muscle and skin in a targeted area. This simple procedure, usually conducted on an outpatient basis, requires a small internal incision, leaving no external scarring.

Following stitch absorption and cheek healing, a permanent indentation will form between the inner skin and facial muscle.
Recovery after Procedure
