Hi Doctors, I've considered getting Dimple Surgery on both my cheeks for a long time now. I find them to be quite appealing and attractive on just about anyone . Due to research I have noticed a number of people who gone through the procedure saying that the dimple went away and thus not being worth the time or money. I would like to do the surgery ONLY if the dimples last. I would like to know the cause of them disappearing on some people?

Thank you for your question. You submitted a question without a photo asking about the permanence of dimpleplasty, specifically related to the suture you describe as a blue suture, and if its permanent placement can cause a problem later on.
I can give you some guidance about this question. A...
I am not aware of any non-surgical method to create dimples. I am not a huge proponent of this type of surgery, but if you are considering it, I would consult with a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon.
Cheek dimples can be made to be very deep to more shallow depending upon the surgical technique. It is not precisely predictable how deep the cheek dimple will stay as it heals. Usually a surgically created cheek dimple will not be present when you smile but only appears when you do.
