WHAT IS DIMPLE CREATION (BOTH SIDES) – DIMPLEPLASTY (DAY CASE)?

Dimple creation, also known as dimpleplasty, is a minor cosmetic surgical procedure designed to create natural-looking dimples on both cheeks. Dimples are small indentations that appear when smiling and can enhance facial charm and aesthetics. The procedure is minimally invasive, performed as a day case, allowing patients to go home shortly after treatment. At London Harley Street Clinics, our specialists perform precise, symmetrical dimple creation to ensure natural and balanced facial results.

Treatment Process

Dimpleplasty is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anaesthesia and usually takes 20–40 minutes. It includes:

Assessment of facial anatomy and smile dynamics to determine optimal dimple placement for both cheeks.

Local anaesthesia ensures a comfortable, pain-free procedure.

Small incisions are made inside the mouth, and controlled sutures are placed on each cheek to create symmetrical indentations that form dimples when smiling.

No external stitches are needed, as the procedure is performed from inside the mouth. The results are immediate and permanent.

The Smooth Eye Laser treatment was fantastic! It completely rejuvenated my under-eye area, making me look well-rested and youthful. The procedure was quick, painless, and the results are simply amazing. Highly recommend it for anyone dealing with fine lines or sagging skin around the eyes.
