Marking or removing the chin dimple
English subtitled video
The chin dimple operation is a very simple operation that allows us to highlight the chin dimple if we wish to make it stand out more, or to make it disappear if it is not desired or if it is too pronounced for our taste.
Clínica Sanza in Barcelona, Spain, is a centre of reference in the treatment of chin dimple.
WHERE DO WE OPERATE?
At Clínica Sanza we rely on the Sagrat Cor Hospital, part of the Quirónsalud group, to perform our surgical procedures.
Its prestige, facilities, medical and healthcare staff, as well as its technology are a guarantee.
