  • Facial exercise method
    Patent number: 4823778
    Abstract: An exercise method is disclosed for improving the tone of the facial muscles and thereby removing or reducing wrinkles in the overlying skin. A facial muscle underlying a region of skin to be tightened is selected for exercise. The primary stiffener is applied to the surface of the skin over the selected muscle and secondary stiffeners are applied to other regions of the skin which would be creased by contraction of the selected muscle. An exercise weight is attached to the primary stiffener at a location over the selected muscle. The selected muscle is contracted and released repeatedly to lift and lower the weight a predetermined number of times.
