Dimples are divided into three types: round, oval and fissure. Some scholars have investigated, mostly distributed in the cheeks, but also common in the corners of the mouth, zygomatic and chin are relatively few.
34.2% has one dimple, 59% has two dimples, 5.6% has three dimples and 5.2% has four dimples. There were/kloc-0 dimples on the left cheek, accounting for 59.6%. Most dimples appeared on the cheek, and most of them were asymmetrical on both sides.

Legend of origin:
According to legend, after death, people go to Huang Quan Road through the gate of hell, and the flowers on the other side of the road only bloom without falling leaves. Flowers and leaves live and disappear, but they miss each other forever. At the end of the road, there is a river called Forgetting River, and there is a bridge over it.
There is a woman named Meng Po waiting there, handing a bowl of Meng Po soup to every passer-by. Anyone who has drunk Meng Po Tang will forget all the obstacles in this life and enter the Six Paths without attachment, whether it is immortal, human or beast.
Meng po Tang, also known as forgetful water, will forget past lives after drinking it. Life's love and hate, life's ups and downs, are forgotten with this bowl of Meng Po Tang. People who care about this life and people who hate this life will not know each other in the next life.
But some people don't want to drink Meng Po Tang for various reasons, so Meng Po has no choice but to promise them. But I made a mark on these people, and this mark left a dimple on my face.
Such people must jump into the forgotten river and wait for thousands of years before they can be reincarnated. After reincarnation, he will find his lover in his last life with his memories and dimples.
Formation of dents:
Dimples are formed by muscle activity under the skin. Most muscles of human body are firmly attached to bones through tendon fibers, such as pectoral muscles and lower limb muscles.
Facial expression muscles are an exception. It is directly attached to the facial skin. When the expression muscles contract, it will affect the facial skin, so various wrinkles appear on the face, resulting in expressions of joy, anger, sadness and joy. The two dimples on the smiling face are formed by the relative influence of facial skin and facial expression muscles such as buccal muscle and smiling muscle.
Whether there are dimples is related to the development of expression muscles. People with less plump smiling muscles and less subcutaneous fat on their faces generally have no dimples when they smile. Of course, dimples can also be made the day after surgery.
Dimples are recessive inheritance. Recessive inheritance means that the recessive genes in a pair of genes must be paired to show their determined traits. Dominant inheritance means that in a pair of genes, dominant genes do not need to be paired, and only one dominant gene will show its certain traits, such as sharp eyes and double eyelids. It can also be made by surgery the day after tomorrow.
