Follow us Did you know that ultimately the deciding factor for dimples is your genetics? Many of us have known and fervently adored someone with cute, tiny dimples and yearned for the same. In fact, there is something about a charming set of dimples in grown-ups that make us yearn for the innocence of the childhood gone by. While we coo over a baby’s dimple, most of them grow out them whenever the baby fat goes away. It is the genetic defect that must be credited for those who retain their dimples, even when they grow old.What is this genetic defect?Did you know that ultimately the deciding factor for dimples is your genetics? Yes. So if you have a set of cute dimples, you might want to thank your parents. Dimples are actually caused by shorter muscles around the mouth that result in a small dent in the flesh when one smiles. According to scientists, dimples are actually an irregular dominant trait.But there have been scenarios where people who did not have dimples when they were younger, developed them as they grew old. Can you get dimples by sucking on a popsicle?In a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, it was found out that children who sucked popsicles were more likely to develop dimples. This process was known as Cryolipolysis. What is Cryolipolysis?Cryolipolysis (also known as fat freezing) is a process in which fat tissues are supposedly killed when exposed to freezing cold temperature. This phenomenon--where fact reacts very quickly to concentrated freezing temperature -- could be the reason behind children developing dimples on their cheeks when they sucked on popsicles. In fact, even ice packs and cold air are known to have a similar effect. This strange phenomenon came to be known as “popsicle panniculitis”. Doctors from Harvard Medical School discovered that fat was way more sensitive to extreme freezing temperature than other body tissues. The bottom lineIf you are planning on going on a popsicle and ice cubes spree, hold your horses right there as getting dimples might not be as easy as sucking on popsicles, as this phenomenon is yet to be largely tested.
