Creating a Small Depression: A small depression is crafted in the cheek muscle by removing a minute piece of tissue from the mouth.

Suturing: Using an absorbable suture, the surgeon captures the underside of the cheek skin, securing it in the deeper soft tissues without leaving external scars.

Procedure Time: 20-30 minutes.
