How many word in Greek got the meaning dimpling?

There isn't a single perfect Greek word that translates directly to "dimpling" in the sense of the small indentation in the skin. The concept would need to be expressed using descriptive phrases depending on the context. For example, you might use words related to:

* Small indentation/hollow: Words like *βόθρος* (bothros - pit, hollow) or *λάκκος* (lakkos - pit, hollow) could be used, but they are not specific to skin.

* Depression: Words like *κατάθλιψη* (katathlipsis - depression) are too general.

* Curvature: Words describing curves might be used if referring to the shape caused by a dimple, but again, not specific.

Therefore, there's no single-word equivalent. You'd need a periphrastic expression to convey the meaning accurately.
