Another common place for dimples is the chin. Many people use the term cleft chin to differentiate between those with a more prominent indent, but cleft chins are actually dimples. Chin dimples may be vertical lines, Y-shaped lines, or round dimples. In many cases, the dimples are subtle enough that it is hard to distinguish between a smooth chin and a chin with a dimple. In addition, chin dimples seem to vary wildly between populations.
