What is the glabella?
The glabella is the area of skin between the eyebrows and above the nose. The term also refers to the underlying bone that is slightly depressed, and joins the two brow ridges. The word 'glabella' translates to 'smooth' from the original Latin glabellus. This is because this area tends to be hairless.
Glabella lines and frown lines are often used interchangeably to describe the lines above the nose and around the forehead, with some even using the term “glabella frown lines.” While the two terms refer to similar lines in the same area of the face, they do not mean exactly the same thing.
Glabellar lines are found above the eyebrows on the forehead. These lines run horizontally from one of the eyebrows to the other. Frown lines, however, can be found between the eyes, adjacent to the eyebrows. These creases are deep, vertical lines that stretch from above the side of the nose to right above the eyebrows in most people.
