Nature’s Cheeky Little Surprise
Ever wondered why some folks have those adorable craters on their cheeks?
Dimples, those little pockets of cuteness, are caused by an anatomical variation of a facial muscle called the zygomaticus major. It’s sort of like a cute muscle hiccup. They’re most commonly found on the cheeks, but you can score ’em on chins too. When some folks smile, the muscle called shortens and tugs on the skin, creating these cheeky dents.
It’s like Mother Nature’s playful jab.
How common are they?
Well, around 20% of people worldwide are blessed with them. The lottery of genetics is the boss here. If your parents had ’em, you’re in luck! But hey, don’t worry if you’re dimple-deprived. You’re still a star in your own right.
Now, let’s talk celebs. Dimples are like a red carpet event on your face! Just ask Harry Styles, Ariana Grande, Jennifer Garner and Priyanka Chopra. They add charm and charisma, making you the life of the party without even trying.
Why do we find them so attractive? Well, it’s like a magnet for our hearts. They scream “I’m friendly and approachable!” Dimples turn a simple smile into a swoon-worthy masterpiece. They’re the cherries on top of the cuteness sundae.
Dimples are nature’s way of saying, “You’re cute, so let’s dimple and shine!”
So you want them?
No problem.
GIVING yourself dimples is the hot new trend on TikTok.
It’s called Dimpleplasty!
People are buying something “dimple makers” that are supposed to create dimples in your cheeks. on Etsy. (Here’s a photo.)
They come in pairs. Each one is a loop of metal with a bead on each end. You slip them around the corners of your mouth. The beads pinch your cheeks from the outside and inside, and create little dents.
And they work!
They work by compressing the fat in your cheeks and pushing it outward.
It’s temporary unless you constantly use them.
There are risks.
If they’re too tight or you wear them too long, it could restrict blood flow, kill the underlying fat, and create scar tissue. There’s also an outside chance it could cause nerve damage in your face.
