Overview
The nasalis muscle is a superficial muscle located on the nasal dorsum and has connections to the orbicularis oculi and to the levator labii superioris muscles. In its function it stiffens the lateral nasal wall and contributes to the formation of “Bunny Lines”. Although no injection simulations are performed, this video is best suited for briefly freshen up on nose anatomy prior to clinical treatments.
