Glabella Anatomy

The glabella is the smooth midline bony prominence between the supraciliary arches of the frontal bone representing the most anterior part of the forehead when standing erect and look straight ahead. The metopic suture traverses the glabella between the two frontal bones.

The glabella is the skin in the middle of the eyebrows and superior to the nose.

Glabella anatomy. The glabella the expression of the axial lobe in the cephalon forms a dome underneath which sat the crop or stomach. It is a cephalometric landmark that is just superior to the nasion. Next draw lines vertically upwards from each medial canthus to the head of the brow.

The most forward projecting point of the forehead in the midline at the level of the supraorbital ridges. First draw a line from the medial canthus of each eye diagonally towards the heads of each brow. We will now look at how to locate the injection points on the glabella.

The glabella is about one third the total width nearly parallel sided somewhat pointed at the front. Craniometric point a landmark on the skull from which craniometric measurements can be taken. It also stands for the underlying bone which is somewhat indented it also stands for the underlying bone which is somewhat indented and connects the two superciliary ridges.

The glabellar complex consists of the two corrugator supercilii muscles and the procerus muscle that collectively serve upon contraction to pull the brow medially and downward.

Generally the exoskeleton has few distinguishing ventral features but the cephalon often preserves muscle attachment scars and occasionally the hypostome a small rigid plate comparable to the ventral plate in other arthropods. The glabella in humans is the skin between the eyebrows and above the nose. It also refers to the underlying bone which is slightly depressed and joins the two brow ridges.

The corrugator supercilii are two sets of horizontally oriented muscle fibers that lie beneath the medial eyebrow to about the mid pupillary line. Just below it is the bony depression the nasion. You should do the first injection where these two lines intersect.
