Crystal, the first thing that you need is a calendar since this article is from 1936.
Understanding that this doesn’t work and that you need to go to a plastic surgeon to create permanent dimples here is the patent to build your own

Well some people (me plus thousands) arent lucky enough to be born with dimples. I have wanted dimples since i was old enough to want. I actually found doctors (qualified) that perform the surgery. Unfortunatly… There in Shanghi yes as in the continent of Asia. I live in North America theres no way i could ever go to Shanghi. *sigh*

I have natural dimples and I’m really happy coz I have such a beauty mark they show up when I smile a big smile :’D I think this invention is not good cos it will be fake to have them when you are born without them

Pl let me know the address from where the dimple machine can be bought?
Does it really work and how long does it take to get results?
Is it painful?
What is the cost of the machine?
May I pay by debit card. I live in London, U.K
I am diabetic. Will it be any problem to use it. will it cause wounds, sores, etc?
Your early reply will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

I already have dimples but that is a cool way to get dimples. but like that other person said that does look freaky with those wires wraped around your face.

I have dimples, and that wont work. Dimples occur when the muscle in your cheek is connected to your jaw bone. Thus creating a large dimple when you smile or talk. You can get surgery to get dimples, but its like $2000 per one. Only problem with dimples is if you break your jaw or the muscle disconnects itself, you can lose your dimples forever.

I’d say that it works temporarily, akin like a keyboard face, if one happens to fell asleep while using a computer….
