Dimple surgery, which is also known as dimple creation procedure or dimpleplasty, is a simple aesthetic operation that creates dimples on your face by manipulating the cheek tissue. Vantage Clinic provides world-class dimple surgery services in Istanbul, Turkey.
Dimples are small permanent indentations in the cheeks. These indentations can naturally occur on some people’s faces because of irregular attachments of the facial muscles. Such behaviour is an inherited trait. As they are considered a unique and adorable feature by most people, dimples have become a desirable look. Not only they are viewed as cute but also, they are a sign of fortune in some cultures.
If you were not lucky enough to inherit dimples but have always wanted to have them, a dimple surgery at Vantage Clinic can simply give you what you want. Read on to find more about dimpleplasty.
Because dimpleplasty is such an easy and quick procedure, it does not require general anaesthesia. Local anaesthesia is enough to create a painless experience.
The entire dimpleplasty operation takes about 20 minutes during which the anaesthetic shows its effect and your surgeon completes the operation.
You can go home on the same day after you have had some rest in a post-operative recovery area. Because the stitches used during the operation are usually dissolvable, you won’t need to schedule another appointment after your surgery.

Your surgeon then creates a suture on the inside of this cut and closes the incision. The dept of the dimple can be adjusted by tightening or loosening this suture. After your surgery, you might notice some swelling on your cheeks. This is nothing to be concerned about can easily be remedied at home. You can apply a cold press on the swollen areas to help with recovery.
