Natural, Cute Dimples with Precise, Scar-Concealed Technique

Dimpleplasty creates or enhances natural-looking dimples by forming a subtle connection between the skin and underlying muscle. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified surgeon designs dimples that suit your smile dynamics and facial proportions—refined, camera-friendly, and never overdone.

Why Patients Choose Dimple Surgery

  • Add youthful charm and facial character
  • Balance facial symmetry and enhance smile lines
  • Customize depth, size, and position to your features
  • Minimal downtime with discreet, inside-mouth incisions

Personalized Planning at UE Plastic Surgery

Your plan is tailored to:

  • Smile dynamics (at rest vs smiling), cheek fat thickness
  • Ideal dimple location (commonly along the intermediate line from eye to mouth corner)
  • Shape and depth (soft/natural vs slightly defined)
  • One-side or both-side design, symmetry goals, and cultural preferences

We mark positions in different expressions to ensure realistic, flattering results.

Techniques We May Use

  • Intraoral Approach (No External Scar): A tiny incision inside the cheek; skin and muscle are carefully tethered to create a natural dimple.
  • Suture-Tether (Dynamic Dimple): Fine sutures create a connection that appears primarily when smiling.
  • Punch Excision/Soft Tissue Shaping (When Needed): For thicker tissue or revision cases to refine contour and consistency.

We prioritize a dynamic, smile-responsive dimple unless a gentle static hint is requested.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

  • Desire for natural, proportional dimples
  • Good oral health and non-smoker (or willing to pause)
  • Realistic expectations about early healing (initial static dimples soften to dynamic)
  • Considering single-side vs both-side symmetry

What to Expect on Procedure Day

  • Anesthesia: Local anesthesia (optional oral sedation)
  • Time: ~20–40 minutes per side
  • Incision: Inside the mouth; no visible external scar
  • Finish: Fine internal sutures; meticulous hemostasis and rinse

Most patients go home immediately after treatment.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Swelling/tenderness: usually 3–7 days (can last up to 2 weeks)
  • Temporary “always-there” dimple early on; becomes more natural and dynamic over 2–8 weeks
  • Soft diet and antiseptic mouth rinse for several days
  • Avoid vigorous cheek movement, hot/spicy foods, and heavy exercise for ~1 week
  • Return to desk work: often 1–3 days, depending on swelling

Results You Can Expect

  • Natural, smile-responsive dimples that complement your features
  • Custom depth and placement matching your aesthetic preference
  • Subtle definition at rest, crisp charm when you smile

Combining Procedures for Balanced Aesthetics

  • Lip Corner Lift for brighter mouth corners
  • Cheek Filler or Fat Grafting for volume harmony
  • Skin Boosters / Laser to refine texture and pores around the cheek

Safety, Risks & Revisions

  • Temporary asymmetry, over/under-definition, or suture loosening are possible but uncommon
  • Infection risk minimized with strict intraoral hygiene
  • Revisions can adjust depth or position if needed after healing
