In modern life, everyone desires to see sweet smiles, especially those who value beauty. Thus, many aspire to be more endearing and opt for artificial dimples. So, who is suitable for artificial dimples? Below, our facial plastic surgery column shares some cosmetic knowledge. Dimples can be categorized into three types: round, oval, and slit-shaped.Research indicates they most commonly appear on the cheeks, frequently near the corners of the mouth, while being less common on the cheekbones or chin. Among East Asians, natural dimples occur at a rate of 1 in 18, meaning most individuals seek dimple creation surgery. Current techniques are highly advanced, producing artificial dimples that are virtually indistinguishable from natural ones.
Artificial dimples are created through cosmetic surgery, medically termed dimple creation. The placement, shape, size, and number of dimples are primarily determined by the patient's preference, with the surgeon offering advisory suggestions. Most individuals opt for one dimple on each cheek.Typically, the dimple is positioned at the intersection of a line parallel to the corners of the mouth and a vertical line drawn from the outer canthus of the eye.
Candidates for artificial dimples (dimple creation):
1. Individuals without dimples or with overly flat facial features; particularly those who would benefit from a more striking appearance with added dimples.
2. Individuals with unilateral dimples or asymmetrical dimples.
Generally, artificial dimple creation surgery employs three methods: suture ligation, insertion, and intraoral incision.
