Dimples over the cheeks can give a touch of cuteness to the face and are in general aesthetically pleasing.

Houston plastic surgeon, Dr. Madjidi can perform dimple creation surgery in her office under local anesthesia. Dimple creation surgery can simulate this naturally occurring process. First the desired location of the dimple is marked over the skin. Some patients chose to have it on one side only and some prefer dimples on both sides.
The inside of the cheek is numbed with a local anesthetic. A small incision is then made in the inside of your cheek. There is no incision or scar on the outside skin. A small absorbable suture is passed through the inside of the cheek and catches the undersurface of the skin where the dimple is desired.
When this suture is tied it causes a dimpling in the overlying skin. You can see the dimpling right away. At first there is a dimple present at rest even without smiling, but after several days, or sometimes a few weeks, the dimple is only present while smiling or moving the face. It will seem shallower.
