hi doctors, I'm looking to get a dimpleplasty but I have a few questions about it, is it true that when you have a dimpleplasty the dimples will always be present even if you're not smiling? and I have a dimple under my lip that's noticeable when i smile, my dad has dimples but not deep dimples, so my question is do the dimples will only appear when you smile or will they always be there, and could I get subtle dimples on my cheeks, not huge ones your thoughts? is it possible to get small ones
