Dimpleplasty in Atlanta

What Is Dimpleplasty?

Dimpleplasty is a small facial cosmetic procedure that creates a dimple on the cheek from inside the mouth. There is no visible outside incision. The goal is to create a subtle indentation that enhances your smile and looks natural with your facial features.

Many patients choose dimple surgery because they want a small detail that makes the face feel more expressive, youthful, and memorable. It is a simple procedure, but placement matters. The best results come from choosing the right location, depth, and balance for your face.

Why Patients Choose Dimpleplasty

Dimpleplasty is popular because it gives a noticeable but still natural-looking enhancement. Patients often choose it because they want:

  • A more defined smile
  • One or two cheek dimples
  • A subtle facial enhancement
  • A quick in-office procedure
  • Minimal downtime
  • No visible external scar
  • A long-lasting result

It is a small change, but it can make a big difference in how your smile looks.

How Dimpleplasty Works

Your dimple placement is marked while you are sitting upright so you can review and approve the location before the procedure begins.

The area is numbed with local anesthesia. A small opening is made inside the cheek, and a special stitch is placed to connect the inner cheek tissue to the underside of the skin. This creates the dimple effect.

Right after the procedure, the dimple may be visible even when you are not smiling. As healing continues, the dimple usually softens and begins to look more natural over time.

Dimpleplasty Procedure Details

  • Procedure time: 30–60 minutes
  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia
  • Incision: Inside the mouth
  • Downtime: Minimal

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dimpleplasty?

You may be a good candidate for dimpleplasty if you want natural-looking cheek dimples and are comfortable with a long-term cosmetic change.

This procedure may be a good fit for patients who want a subtle enhancement, have realistic expectations, and understand that dimple depth and symmetry can vary slightly from person to person.

Dimpleplasty Recovery

Most patients experience mild swelling, tenderness, or redness after dimpleplasty. Initial healing usually takes 1–2 weeks, but the final result can take several months to fully settle.

After your procedure, you may be advised to:

  • Use antiseptic mouthwash
  • Take prescribed antibiotics as directed
  • Avoid hard or chewy foods for 2 weeks
  • Use Tylenol or Motrin if needed
  • Limit exaggerated facial expressions while healing
  • Use cold packs if swelling occurs

Is Dimpleplasty Permanent?

Dimpleplasty is designed to create a permanent dimple. However, healing varies. In some cases, one or both dimples may soften or fade as the tissue heals.

If a revision is needed, Dr. Curves offers revision options within the recommended healing window.
