What is Dimple Surgery?

Cosmetic procedures are popular among people who want to improve their appearance in an aesthetic sense. For instance, people may want to undergo face and neck lifts in Turkey to rejuvenate their skin. Dimple surgery is also an operation performed with purely aesthetic concerns and is not related to health.  It does not leave any scars since the operations are performed from inside the mouth. It is a desirable option for many people because there will be no external stitch marks. The procedure is relatively quick, typically taking a maximum of 60 minutes, and the recovery process is fast compared to other surgical interventions.

What is the Dimple Surgery Procedure?

The primary motivation of people seeking dimple surgery in Turkey is the desire to enhance their beauty through a simple procedure.  This surgery is similar to outpatient treatment. For the dimple to be created, the patient’s skin must be suitable for the surgery. Therefore, a surgical consultation is conducted before starting any procedures.

If it is determined that the person is suitable for dimpleplasty, local anesthesia is applied to the area where the dimple will be created. Then a small incision is made inside the mouth to fuse the muscle tissue. The healing time of this incision can vary between 6-12 months. The procedure takes 30 to 60 minutes. The effects are not immediately visible. A few weeks should pass for the dimple to fully form and become noticeable.

However, this operation alone might not be enough to create a profound change in the facial expression. Therefore, you may opt for a brow lift in Turkey to minimize your wrinkles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dimple surgery is a procedure suitable for everyone. Although the patient needs to be over 18. It is also important to not have any skin conditions. Having a skin condition can cause potential issues, so patients with this problem should consult their healthcare provider and decide together.

Turkey is among the most popular countries for aesthetic procedures. With its adherence to health standards like JCI, its professional staff, and state-of-the-art equipment, Turkey offers safe and reliable service. Therefore, for a dimple surgery Turkey is one of the most ideal places to choose from.

Dimple surgery, like any other surgical operation, can have minor side effects:

  • Minimal pain or discomfort at the incision site.
  • Potential of swelling and redness.
  • Minimal risk of bleeding at the operation site.

No pain is felt during the operation due to the application of anesthesia. There might be minimal discomfort after the surgery, however, patients can return to their normal lives immediately.

People over 18 years of age can have dimples with dimple surgery in Turkey.

The results of dimple surgery are permanent. Although a significant change in weight in the future can alter their appearance. It’s important to note that unless you undergo dimple surgery in a professional place, your dimples may not appear.

If an excessive amount of tissue is removed, there might be a continuous depression in the skin and this may create an artificial look. However, thanks to technological developments, these can easily be reversed.

No preparation is required before dimple aesthetics. If the person is not using a blood-thinning drug or does not have an additional disease, dimple aesthetic surgery can be performed easily under local anesthesia.

Under local anesthesia, the specialist creates an incision inside the cheek. The specialist cuts through muscles under the skin and inserts a suture. The suture links the muscle with the skin, creating a dimple.

A muscle deformation in the skin tissue causes a hollow appearance we call dimples. This is due to the irregular growth of the zygomaticus muscle in the cheeks while still in the womb.

There isn’t a certain rule about drinking after dimpleplasty, although your specialist may ask you not to use a straw.

The healing time of the incision in the mouth can vary between 6-12 months.
