Note simple treatment for depressions (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dimples

'depressions' is the definition.
(dimple is a kind of depression)

'note simple treatment' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'd' (musical note**).
'treatment' is an anagram indicator.
'simple' anagrammed gives 'imples'.
'd'+'imples'='DIMPLES'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for dimples that I've seen before include "Indentations on the cheeks" , "Hollows in the cheek or chin" , "Attractive indentations in face" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Daily Express.
