Dimple or Cleft Chin Construction

Not everyone is born with either a dimple on the cheek or cleft chin. Although considered a congenital defect, dimples and cleft chin are commonly sought cosmetic procedures to add contour and beauty to a person’s face, making him or her look more appealing, attractive and pleasant.

“If you always wanted to have cleft chin or dimples, with cosmetic surgery, nothing is impossible. You can have one in just a few minutes,” says Dr. Alonzo.

DIMPLE OR CLEFT CHIN CONSTRUCTION is a surgical enhancement of the cheek and chin that brings additional beauty to the face. It can also correct facial asymmetries and congenital defects.

The Dimple Creation & Cleft Chin Creation surgery:

Surgery is done in the clinic, under local anesthesia on an outpatient basis, and takes less than 45 minutes to finish. Cleft Chin and Dimples surgery doesn’t require extensive incisions; thus you can expect lower risk of infection, less pain and discomfort, reduced risks of complications and rapid recovery time. You may or may not experience slight discomfort for a few hours after the anesthesia wears off.

Post surgery and recovery:

For Cleft chin construction, Dr. Alonzo will put a facial bandage on the operated area, which you will be removed on the 3rd day. Stitches removal is on the 7th day. For Dimple construction, Dr. Alonzo will put small facial bandage on the operated area. Dissolvable sutures will be used so you don’t need to go back to the clinic for its removal. While you’re recuperating at home, Dr. Alonzo will advise you to call the clinic from time to time to check your healing progress. You can go back to work the next day or after a day of rest following your surgery, but avoid strenuous activities like contact sports and exercise that can injure your face. Healing period is 7 to 10 days. After a few weeks, you will notice that the operated area is already taking shape; the dimples or the cleft chin is becoming more apparent and feels natural like you are born with it. Final results can be seen after a month.
