These actions can shift internal sutures and cause uneven healing. Keeping the incision site undisturbed is essential for permanent results.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Dietary restrictions:</strong> Skip chips, nuts, and tough meats to prevent rupturing delicate internal stitches.</li> <li><strong>Facial expressions:</strong> Minimize wide smiles or intense laughter for 14 days to protect suture integrity.</li> <li><strong>Physical habits:</strong> Avoid using straws and smoking, as suction pressure disturbs the healing incision site.</li> <li><strong>Sleeping position:</strong> Do not sleep on your side; instead, sleep elevated to reduce facial swelling.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> While many focus on food, the biggest risk to your results is actually `mirror checking.` Bookimed data from centers like Quartz Hospital suggests that poking or prodding the new dimples to check depth actually increases infection risk and can cause one side to heal shallower than the other. Leave the area completely alone for 10 days.</p> <p><strong>Patient Consensus:</strong> Many patients find that dimples temporarily fade after 2 weeks during the internal healing phase.

You and your surgeon will finalize the position by marking your cheeks in front of a mirror before the procedure starts.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Consultation marking:</strong> Surgeons mark the skin while you smile to ensure the spot looks natural.</li> <li><strong>Anatomic safety:</strong> Doctors avoid specific areas to protect vital facial nerves and blood vessels.</li> <li><strong>Symmetry checks:</strong> Your specialist ensures both dimples align perfectly with your unique muscle structure.</li> <li><strong>Customization depth:</strong> You can request deeper, more permanent dimples or shallow, subtle indentations.</li> <li><strong>Technique options:</strong> Surgeons use intraoral incisions or muscle attachment to secure the chosen placement.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> While patients often request specific heights, our data shows that specialized ENT surgeons like Dr. Ceren Durgun prioritize muscle attachment over fixed measurements. This approach ensures dimples only appear when you smile. Static dimples that show while the face is at rest often signal over-correction.</p> <p><strong>Patient Consensus:</strong> Most patients recommend bringing reference photos to the clinic.

They identify the Khoo Boo-Chai point where the eye and mouth lines intersect. This ensures the dimple aligns with natural facial structures and appears subtly only when smiling. Surgeons also adjust suturing tension to control depth.</p><ul><li><strong>Anatomical mapping:</strong> Surgeons map geometric coordinate lines to ensure symmetry and balance.</li><li><strong>Dynamic muscle tests:</strong> Patients perform suction and smile tests to find natural tissue voids.</li><li><strong>Precise internal coring:</strong> Small cylinders of tissue are removed for permanent, well-defined indentations.</li><li><strong>Suture tensioning:</strong> Absorbable internal slings anchor the skin to underlying cheek muscles.</li></ul><p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> Turkish specialists often possess international microsurgery training that elevates the precision of facial refinements. For instance, Dr. Leyla Arvas at Quartz Hospital trained in microsurgery at Taiwan Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. Dr. Yunus Emre Seker at Soraca Med worked on pioneering transplant teams. These backgrounds allow for delicate maneuvering around vital structures like the facial artery and Stensen’s duct.</p><p><strong>Patient Consensus:</strong> Patients note that the results look very deep at first.

This method involves operating entirely inside the mouth. It allows surgeons to replicate natural facial anatomy without leaving any visible external scars on the patient's face.</p><ul><li><strong>Surgical access:</strong> Surgeons make a small incision through the inner cheek lining or oral mucosa.</li><li><strong>Tissue anchoring:</strong> An absorbable or non-absorbable suture pins the skin to the buccinator muscle.</li><li><strong>Natural results:</strong> This technique creates a dynamic dimple that appears mainly when the patient smiles.</li><li><strong>Quick recovery:</strong> The procedure typically takes under 60 minutes often using local anesthesia.</li></ul><p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> Turkish specialists like Dr. Leyla Arvas at Quartz Hospital or Dr. Yavuz Özsular combine microsurgery training with facial aesthetic expertise. This academic-level precision is vital because it helps avoid 'static' dimples that look unnatural at rest.
