Depressor supercilii muscle: anatomy, histology, and cosmetic implications.
To describe the gross and microscopic anatomy of the depressor supercilii muscle and to discuss its cosmetic implications. ⋯ The origin, insertion, and anatomy of the depressor supercilii muscle help it to act as a depressor of the eyebrow. Histologically, the depressor supercilii muscle arises distinctly from bone and has a unique insertion. The depressor supercilii muscle appears to be distinct from the corrugator supercilii and the orbicularis oculi muscles.
