What is Dimpleplasty?
Most people think dimples are a cute and attractive facial feature on both sexes hence why dimpleplasty is the latest plastic surgery trend. With dimpleplasty, dimples can be created on both sides or just one.
A dimple is created by the removal of a small muscle on the cheeks and the remaining muscles are attached to the inside of the cheeks. The incisions will create dimples and the results will be permanent once the scars heal.
You can discuss the length, size, and position of your dream dimples with your surgeon during consultation.
You are an ideal candidate for dimpleplasty if you:
Want to enhance facial expression
Want a cute smile
Are healthy and at your ideal weight
Have done your research on the procedure and the possible risks
You may leave the hospital right after surgery.
You can experience some swelling. Lightly apply an ice compress to ease the mild pain and reduce swelling.
You can go back to your daily life after 2-3 days.
The dimples will be very deep and apparent immediately after the surgery and until they heal. Once the sutures dissolve, the dimples will be more natural.
As the our health care team, we will ensure that you have gone through all the necessary health checkups before your surgery, and always be there for you during recovery to ensure you feel your best the whole time.
Aftercare is as important as the surgery itself when it comes to boosting the effects of the procedure.
Quitting smoking and drinking during the healing process are recommended, as smoking and alcohol intake might slow down the healing and potentially affect the surgery results.
Make sure you keep yourself propped up with multiple pillows while lying down or sleeping.
Swelling is expected but it will start to go down after day 2 and 3, which are the most challenging. Just trust the process.
If necessary, your doctor may prescribe you painkillers.
