What Is Dimpleplasty?
Dimpleplasty involves creating a small indentation in the inner cheek muscle to simulate a natural dimple. It’s a quick, outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia. The resulting dimples appear when you smile, adding charm and character to your facial expressions.
How Dimpleplasty Works?
Using a small incision inside the cheek, the surgeon creates a subtle adhesion between the skin and underlying muscle. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and no external scars are left. Stitches are absorbable and heal naturally within a few days.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be an ideal candidate for dimpleplasty if you are:
- In good general health
- Interested in enhancing your smile aesthetics
- Seeking a minimally invasive procedure
- Realistic about natural-looking results
- Free of active skin infections or oral health issues

How Dimpleplasty Works?
The treatment works well on its own or can be used with filler and other non-invasive options, making it an excellent alternative for those who don’t want surgery but still need a bit of refining and lifting. Even though the skin is only lifted by a few millimeters, in most patients, that’s enough to make a dramatic difference in the appearance of their face.
Often, PDO threads are like the icing on the cake after other treatments. And they can also be used to build upon the results of different treatments, like a liquid facelift. No matter where the threads are inserted on the face or body, they work towards lifting crepey, loose skin back to a more desirable position.

Here’s what to expect post-procedure:

The Benefits of PDO Threads
The most significant benefit of PDO threads is the lift they provide. But the creation of new collagen is equally essential, which helps prolong the threads’ lifting effects even after they’ve been absorbed. Any new collagen is permanent and lasts unless it breaks down.
Other patients appreciate the downtime-free lifting benefits of threads without having to undergo surgery—a big plus!
Additional benefits of PDO threads include:
- No large incisions or cuts, which means no scars. Small incisions are made to insert the threads under the skin but they do not leave a scar.
- No general anesthesia so that you can drive yourself home after the procedure
- Immediate improvement with low risk. As the threads dissolve and the body creates new collagen, the results are even more noticeable–and better–around 8 to 12 weeks after the treatment.
- A more affordable option than plastic surgery
- Some minor downtime for three to five days after the procedure




The Different Types of PDO Threads
Different types and textures of threads can be used to address age-related issues. The main thread textures are smooth PDO threads and lifting PDO threads. Schedule a consultation today to determine the best type of threads for you!
These threads have a smooth texture and can be used to treat deep-textured acne scars. However, they do not lift the skin as a barbed thread does. Instead, smooth PDO threads dissolve under the skin and help stimulate collagen to smooth the skin’s surface while tightening and plumping it. These threads usually dissolve by about week six, and the full results can be seen around month two or three.
Unlike smooth threads, these are best for lifting the tissue so that the skin appears tighter. They can also be used to reshape a specific feature.

How Much Does a PDO Threads Cost?
Every patient is different, so we recommend a consultation to determine the cost of your PDO thread treatment. Our experienced team of skin experts and medical providers can further discuss the treatment with you and determine if PDO threads are right for you.
The treatment is tailored to your needs, which is why the cost ranges. All PDO thread treatments require the use of multple threads, and some procedures even use a mix of threads. Our team can customize a package to help you obtain the desired results. A consultation with our staff will ensure more accurate pricing.
