Dimple creation surgery is performed as a daycare procedure under local anaesthesia and takes about 20 mins per side. The exact points on the cheek for dimple creation are marked. Local anaesthesia is injected, and a small incision is made on the inner side of the cheeks. A small gap is created in your cheek muscles, and dissolvable stitches are placed underneath the skin to create the dimples.
Since it’s a daycare procedure, the patient is observed for a few hours post-procedure and discharged the same evening. Immediately after the procedure, the cheeks may feel tight and numb. Some swelling and bruising is expected, which disappears within a few days. The stitch dissolves in 6-12 weeks, leaving behind a permanent dimple in the cheeks.
You will follow up with Dr. Sudhanva 5-7 days after the procedure. Additional follow ups are advised at 6 weeks and 6 months after your surgery.

I was incredibly nervous about travelling abroad for plastic surgery (Mommy Makeover), did countless hours of research, and reached out to many surgeons before . I came across Dr. Sudhanva while searching for top plastic surgeons in India for cosmetic surgery. Dr.Sudhanva and his team were prompt in replying to my emails, and my virtual consultation with him helped me choose him for my surgery. He patiently answered all my questions and put me at ease. On meeting him in person, I knew I had made the right decision and could feel I am in good hands. I underwent a tummy tuck, breast lift with augmentation, and thigh liposuction. The level of care I received exceeded my expectations, and I had a smooth recovery. The result is better than I expected, and I love the way I look. I would recommend him to anyone looking for cosmetic surgery in India.
