A dimpleplasty is done as an outpatient procedure. This means you won't have to go to the hospital if your cosmetic surgeon can operate in his clinic. It is also likely that you won't need general anesthesia.
Our dermatologist in Vashi, Navi Mumbai, will first apply a topical anesthetic to your skin's affected region. It will help you to get relief from any pain or discomfort during the operation. The anesthetic medicine takes about 10 minutes to show the effects.
Then our doctor will use a small biopsy tool to make a hole in your skin manually. To perform this procedure, we extract a small muscle and fat from the area where you want the dimples.
Our doctor will place a suture (sling) from one side of the cheek muscle to the other after the hole is created. The sling is then attached to keep the dimple in the place completely.
