Is it possible to create a dimple on the cheek

Posted in Cosmetic Surgery Questions | Posted By - admin

Dr Solomon Facial cosmetic-Oto-Head and Neck Surgeon practicing facial plastic surgery in Toronto Canada.

Yes a minor surgical procedure done with local anesthetic can create a dimple on the cheek. An incision is made from the inside of the cheek and dissolving sutures are placed from the inside of the mouth to create a dimple on the cheeks. While this is a minor surgical procedure there is a possibility that the dimple is not exactly as you idealize. In most cases the dimple created looks natural and is long lasting. I have done this procedure for over ten years and am happy to see patients in consultation to discuss the procedure in more detail.
