Dimple Creation Surgery:

Dimple Creation Surgery is a simple procedure where a doctor creates a small connection between your cheek skin and muscle from inside your mouth. This makes a natural indent (dimple) when you smile. No visible scars—everything is done from inside.

Procedure: Step-by-Step

1. Consultation & Planning: We discuss your desired dimple placement and size. We mark the exact spots while you smile to ensure perfect positioning.
2. Local Anesthesia: The doctor applies Numbing medication inside your mouth—you’ll be awake but comfortable throughout.
3. The Procedure: Through a tiny incision inside your cheek, the surgeon creates a small connection between your cheek lining and the buccinator muscle using dissolvable sutures.
4. Completion: The procedure takes 30-45 minutes for both sides. You can go home the same day.
