Do other people’s adorable dimples make you jealous? Are you upset that you weren’t blessed with the appealing “dimple gene”?
Don’t worry, in Atlanta, GA there’s a way that you can get the beautiful cheek dimples that you’ve always wanted.
What is a Dimple?
A natural dimple is caused by a tiny opening in the muscle within your cheek. It’s seen as a small indention on the outside of the cheek. Some people’s dimples show without them making any specific facial movements, while other dimples only appear when they smile.
Getting Dimples With Surgery
Undergoing an easy procedure called dimpleplasty can give you the attractive smile you’ve always wanted. This treatment is done with local anesthetic. Our surgeon will make a small incision on the inside of the cheek then gain access to the buccinator muscle and manipulate it to form a natural-looking dimple. For the final step, dissolvable stitches will be placed, which go away on their own as the area heals.
Since the treatment is done on the inside of your mouth, there is no visible scar. And with the surgery being quick and simple, you’ll be able to resume most normal activities immediately.
Non-Surgical Dimples
While dimples can be achieved without surgery, the effects of the recommended facial exercises or cheek piercings are not permanent.
