Everyone must have heard of dimple shaping in life, but do you know what it is? Today, let's learn about it together. How long can dimple shaping last? What should you pay attention to after dimple shaping? Let's learn together with the editor.

Most of the dimples are distributed in the cheeks, and they are also common near the corners of the mouth, cheekbones, and chins. I believe that many people should envy people with dimples since childhood, especially girls with dimples, who always give people a very cute and sweet feeling when they smile. So now many people want to have a more charming smile through artificial dimple surgery. The surgery is mainly to connect the dermis and the zygomatic muscle together to form a depression at a specific location through surgery. The two more commonly used methods are suture and intraoral incision. Suture is to suture the muscle and dermis directly at the location of the cheek dimple with silk thread to form a depression. The incision method is a surgical dimple shaping operation. It is to make a vertical incision several centimeters long on the buccal mucosa in the mouth, separate the mucosa and muscle, cut off a small amount of muscle and fat tissue, sew part of the muscle and dermis with a stitch in the incision, make a shallow depression on the corresponding skin, and then sew the mucosa. After a period of time after the operation, the dimple will be like a natural one, so it can last for a very long time.

1: After artificial dimple formation surgery, you should pay attention to oral hygiene. In the first few days, rinse your mouth with boric acid mouthwash or saline, 5 to 6 times a day. You must rinse your mouth after each meal and before going to bed.

2: Choose foods that are easy to chew, easy to digest, and rich in nutrition, such as egg custard, milk, soy products, spinach, tomatoes, etc.; avoid eating hard foods and all irritating foods, such as fried foods, dried steamed buns, onions, ginger, garlic, peppers, wine, etc., to reduce irritation and friction of the wound.

3: The cheek generally does not need to be bandaged after artificial dimple surgery, and antibiotics should be used for the first 3 days to prevent infection.

4: Due to cheek swelling after surgery, dimples may not be visible for a few days.

5: After the artificial dimples are formed, the skin will be sunken even when there is no expression on the face in the early stage, that is, there will be dimples whether you are smiling or not. Don't worry at this time, after about half a year, the facial muscles will be still and the skin will not be sunken, and it will gradually return to its natural state, that is, the dimples will only appear when you are talking or smiling.

How long does it take to recover from dimple surgery?

Generally speaking, the speed of postoperative recovery depends on the patient's age, constitution, physical condition at the time of surgery (such as whether the patient is menstruating), and whether postoperative care is appropriate. As long as there is no infection and the doctor's instructions are strictly followed after surgery, recovery will be faster, otherwise recovery will be slower. Generally speaking, three months after dimple shaping surgery, the dimple shape will gradually become natural.
