glabella

Between the eyebrows

The glabella is the smooth, flat area of the forehead between the eyebrows and just above the nose.

In anatomy and anthropology, it serves as a landmark for skull measurements.

The term appears in discussions of facial aesthetics, particularly regarding frown lines: Botox injections in the glabella reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
