Cheek-Thinning Instrument

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention is to provide a cheek-thinning instrument which is designed to thin cheeks by entire facial muscular exercise to burn off fat of sagging cheeks. In specific, the cheek-thinning instrument which is comprised of a shaft and a pair of pushing parts which can be inserted into an oral cavity between an upper gum and inner surfaces of right and left cheeks or between a lower gum and the same, and which can apply load to entire facial muscles by opening and closing exercise of lips while the shaft is being pulled upward or downward of face.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a cheek-thinning instrument designed to burn off fat of face, particularly of sagging cheeks, by entire facial muscular exercise.[0002]Conventional face-slimming tools, for example the one disclosed by Japanese published unexamined application No. 2003-135624, are known for inserting a spring-assisted cheek-slimming tool, which expands a mouth of a user out horizontally, then the user exercises to close the tool using buccinators muscles, applying a load to cheeks or an entire face.[0003]However, the face-slimming tool as described in the above Japanese published unexamined application No. 2003-135624 is designed to burn off the fat by muscle exercise with the tool being held between the lips, therefore the tool exercises peripheral muscles of the lips, e.g. buccinators muscles, while providing small amount of exercise effect tolavator anguli oris muscles, zygomaticus major muscles and despressor anguli oris muscles, ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0012](1) The cheek-thinning instrument comprises a pair of pushing portions which can be inserted into between an upper gum and right and left cheeks or between a lower gum and the same, therefore it can be placed between a gum and cheeks with ease, and it can apply load to desired muscles with ease by pulling a shaft with fingers. Specifically, it can apply load directly to entire facial muscles by opening and closing exercise of lips while the shaft is being pulled upward or downward of face.

[0014](3) According to the above (1), the pushing portions can be put near the desired muscle(s) to slim, and by applying load directly to lavator anguli oris muscles, zygomaticus major muscles and despressor anguli oris muscles, all of which work to slim the sagging cheeks, these muscles are exercised locally and effectively burning off the fat thereof. Therefore the entire cheeks can be slimmed.

[0015](4) According to the above (1), by placing the cheek-thinning instrument of the present invention in upper and lower portions behind the lips, and by pulling the finger grip part with fingers upward or downward of the face to apply load individually to desired muscles while pursing up the lips and cheeks, entire facial muscles can be exercised.

[0016](5) Claim 2 provides the same effects as the above (1) to (3). (6) Claim 3 provides the same effects as the above (1) to (3), and because it has the finger grip part for the fingers to grip around, application of load can be made more easily.

Problems solved by technology

However, the face-slimming tool as described in the above Japanese published unexamined application No. 2003-135624 is designed to burn off the fat by muscle exercise with the tool being held between the lips, therefore the tool exercises peripheral muscles of the lips, e.g. buccinators muscles, while providing small amount of exercise effect to
