During the dimple surgery consultation, Dr. Anjali will check the patient’s face carefully. She will ask about the dimple’s position, form, size, and depth that the patient wants. She will thoroughly plan the procedure before performing it and go over it in-depth with the patient to ensure they’re pleased with the results.
The patient’s complete medical background, as well as any medications they may be taking, will be inquired about by Dr. Anjali during this phase. She will encourage the patient to ask any questions they might have and address any worries so that they can get the surgery with confidence.
Dr. Anjali gives local anesthesia or general anesthesia first. After marking the site of the dimple, she makes a tiny incision in the inside of the cheek. The incision is 2 to 3 millimeters long on average. To aid in dimple formation, Dr. Anjali removes a tiny quantity of fat and muscle from the cheek. When there is enough room for the dimple, one side of the cheek muscle is connected to the other.
If there are no difficulties, the patient may be discharged on the same day of surgery. Most patients will be able to return to their regular routine after a few days.
A little redness and swelling is expected following surgery. After a week, the swelling will naturally decrease. If there is a lot of puffiness, patients can apply cold packs to reduce the swollen areas.
The dimples will be visible for the first two weeks after surgery. After three weeks, the dimples will only show when the patient smiles.
The cost of dimple surgery varies depending on various factors like the time taken for the surgery and what type of anaesthesia is used. Dr. Anjali will counsel you in detail regarding the procedure and the costs involved in the same.
