Embodiment Construction

[0031] The inventive principle of the present invention is to produce inhibition of the above three muscles in the upper part of the face by means of applying an electric current to only one of these muscles, namely the cone. Thus, by inhibiting the cone muscles, the specific placement of the electrodes can produce reflex relaxation in other muscles in the upper part of the face. Therefore, the method of the present invention is the inverse effect in electrical stimulation, since the purpose of the present invention is to relax the muscles, not to contract them.

[0032] According to the invention shown in Figures 1 to 4, two small electrodes 2 are placed parallel to each other in the space between the eyebrows called the glabella, so that the transmission of current through the cone muscles of the nose can be inhibited. The electrodes 2 are supported by the headband 1 .

[0033] The shape of these electrodes 2 is substantially rectangular, and its size is about 25mm×5mm, and...

Abstract

The invention concerns a method for performing an electric inhibition of the facial muscles for purely aesthetic purposes, using a device comprising a support at the head of a user (1), two contact electrodes (2), an electronic circuit (3) for generating low-voltage electric pulses at said electrodes (2), a direct current electric power supply (4) and means for fixing and locking (7) said components on the head. The invention is characterized in that it includes the following steps: placing the electrodes (2) on either side of the upper part of the nose, at the glabella; passing the electric pulses via the electrodes (2) through the pyramidal muscle of the nose so as to cause said pyramidal muscle of the nose to relax and hence its antagonist muscle, the forehead muscle and the double eyebrow muscle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device for electrical inhibition that relaxes specific muscles in the upper part of the face. Background technique [0002] Wrinkles are caused by a number of factors, for example, age, sun-induced damage, etc., but above all, they are caused by facial expressions, i.e., repeated muscle contractions (of happiness, anger, sadness, fear, surprise, etc. expression). Therefore, they are called "expression wrinkles". These wrinkles, which appear mainly on the upper face, are caused by the interaction between the skin and the muscles below. Specifically, vertical wrinkles appear on the forehead, wrinkles at the corners of the eyes called "crow's feet", horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, and so on. [0003] Thus, the wrinkles on the forehead and the chronic headaches commonly called "headaches" or "migraines" are the result of long-term tension that can cause chronic contraction of one of the three muscles in the upper ...
