Dimples are the most attractive yet rare feature in humans. They are small little dips type in your cheeks or choice that make you and your smile more cuter and attractive. Most people with natural or surgical dimples wonder: Would dimples fade away as we get older? Though they are permanent but can fade away with time due to some factors and conditions.
In this blog, we will discuss dimples in detail.
What Are Dimples and Why Do We Have Them?
Small, cute little depressions on the cheeks or chin when a person smiles are called dimples. When a facial muscle called zygomaticus major is split into two or in any other shape other than usual then it causes dimples to appear on a person’s face.
There are two primary types of dimples:
- Cheek Dimples: The most common and usually inherited.
- Chin Dimples: Also referred to as cleft chin; usually structural in nature and not muscular.
Do Dimples Fade With Age?
Yes, dimples do fade away or disappear with time because they are not genetically strong or deeper. As you age, your facial fat, skin elasticity, or muscles change, which can also lighten the dimple appearance. But it’s not necessary for them to fade and if someone really wants to make their dimples reappear or wants a new one if they do not have them naturally, then dimpleplasty is the way you can dimly smile.
Why Would Dimples Disappear With Age?
1. Facial Fat Loss
Fat loss from the face can flatten the dimples. You can lose weight due to aging, weakness, dieting, etc.
2. Muscle Elasticity Changes
Muscles lose strength and elasticity with age. If the muscle beneath that creates the dimple loses tone, the dimple itself can look less sharp or deep.
3. Skin Laxity
As the skin cells lose their elasticity and collagen, particularly after 30–40 years of age, facial structures soften, and dimples become less prominent.
4. Weight Gain or Loss
Putting on extra weight can also make dimples less visible as they get covered up by fat.
Do Dimples Go Away Entirely?
Generally, they don’t go away entirely, though they can become:
- Shallower
- Less symmetrical
- Only apparent when smiling very widely
In some rare situations, dimples can almost disappear from aging or extreme changes in the face, but it will all hinge on your individual anatomy.
Can You Restore Dimples?
If your dimples have disappeared or you never had them, you can have dimple surgery or dimpleplasty.
What is Dimpleplasty?
Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic procedure in which a cut is placed inside of the cheek to form a dimple appearance. It is a minimally invasive procedure that gives no scars.
