Having charming dimples enhances a smile, but the fear of pain still makes many people hesitant. Is dimple creation painful? The short answer is: ABSOLUTELY PAINLESS. Thanks to local anesthesia, you won’t feel any discomfort during the 15-minute procedure. This article from Dr Xuan Quan Clinic will provide detailed answers about the swelling recovery time and the comfortable procedure from our experts!
How many days does it take for swelling to subside and for the dimples to heal completely?
The recovery and shaping of dimples is very rapid, following these specific timelines:
- From 1-3 days: The cheek area will experience slight swelling and a little tightness. This is a natural reaction of the body after the facial muscles are sutured.
- From 4-7 days: The swelling subsides completely, the cheek muscles begin to adapt to the biological sutures, and the soreness disappears entirely.
- After 10-12 days: The client returns to the center for the doctor to remove the stitches and check the wound. At this point, the oral mucosa has completely healed, and the dimples have settled into a stable and natural shape when smiling.
Factors that contribute to painless and quick healing of dimple creation
The dimple creation process is gentle and has a rapid recovery thanks to the following three key factors:
- Anesthesia technique and doctor’s skill: Experienced doctors will perform professional anesthesia injections, completely numbing the cheek area. Precise and gentle suturing minimizes invasiveness and prevents tissue damage.
- Quality of bioabsorbable sutures: Using ultra-thin, high-quality aesthetic sutures minimizes friction during needle insertion, preventing irritation of the oral mucosa and minimizing swelling and bruising after the procedure.
- Post-procedure care and individual constitution: A healthy constitution combined with strict adherence to post-procedure care instructions, active cold compresses, and proper medication will help the wound inside the oral cavity heal quickly, and the dimples will quickly form a natural shape.
Home Care Tips for Rapid Pain and Swelling Reduction
To quickly relieve soreness and swelling in the cheek area, apply these streamlined post-operative care tips:
- Continuous Cold Compresses: For the first two days, wrap ice cubes in a clean towel and gently apply them to the outside of the cheek (for 10-15 minutes each time) to soothe soreness and reduce swelling quickly.
- Take Medication as Prescribed: Use antibiotics, painkillers, and anti-inflammatory medication as prescribed by your doctor; absolutely do not increase or decrease the dosage on your own.
- Choose Soft, Liquid Foods: Eat porridge, soup, or drink milk for the first three days to avoid straining or chewing, helping the stitches inside the mouth to stabilize quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dimple Creation: Is it Painful?
Is it very painful when the anesthetic is injected for dimple creation?
The sensation during the injection is only a slight sting, like an ant bite, for the first 3 seconds.
Will the cheek area be severely painful once the anesthetic wears off?
Absolutely not. Once the anesthetic wears off, you will only feel a slight soreness and tightness in the cheek area, similar to the feeling after getting your ears pierced. This sensation is completely tolerable and will quickly subside after you take painkillers as prescribed by your doctor.
Is it dangerous if the swelling and pain last for more than a week?
Usually, the soreness will disappear after 3-5 days. If the swelling and pain last for more than 7 days and are accompanied by pus formation, this may be a sign of infection due to improper hygiene or non-sterile instruments. In this case, you need to contact your doctor immediately for timely treatment.
