However, the ideal site for dimple creation remains subjective. This study aimed to determine the optimal dimple placement using a three-dimensional (3D) model, reviewing panelists' preferences based on facial proportions and average ratings. <b>Materials and Methods</b> A 3D model was used to assess three dimple placement points: Point A (intersection of the external canthus and Cupid's bow), point B (Khoo Boo-Chai point), and point C (site based on smile dynamics). Panelists reviewed these points on faces with different proportions using three facial ratios: ratio 1 (Tr-Me / lc r-lc l), ratio 2 (Tr-Nos / Nos-Me), and ratio 3 (Me-Lip / Lip-Nos). Panelists provided average ratings for each site based on aesthetic appeal relative to these ratios. <b>Results</b> Point A received higher ratings for faces with a lower ratio 1 (wider faces). Point B was preferred in faces with higher ratio 1 (elongated faces) and lower ratio 2, receiving the highest average rating for balanced aesthetics. Point C was favored in faces with higher ratios 2 and 3, indicating dominance in the mid and lower facial thirds. Point B had the highest average rating overall. <b>Conclusion</b> These results emphasize the importance of considering facial proportions for optimal dimple placement and individualized cosmetic outcomes.

A literature search was conducted using Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Medline, Embase, and Web of Science. The QUality Appraisal for Cadaveric Studies (QUACS) scale was used for quality appraisal. In total, 12 studies (including 348 arms) agreed with the existence of the arcade of Struthers and its role in ulnar nerve entrapment. One study agreed with the existence of the structure, but disagreed with its nomenclature. On the other side, five studies (describing 224 arms) were against the existence of the structure. In literature, studies can be divided into two groups. The first group agrees with the existence of the arcade of Struthers as described by Kane et al in 1973, emphasizing its role in ulnar nerve entrapment.
