  • Depilation apparatus with vibration member
    Patent number: 6165182
    Abstract: Depilation apparatus with a housing and a depilation member for gripping hairs on human skin and pulling the hairs from the skin comprises a vibration member for exerting mechanical vibrations on the skin. Such mechanical vibrations have an anaesthetizing effect on the skin so that pain sensations caused by the process of pulling hairs from the skin are relieved. The vibration member comprises flexible protrusions which have been disposed on a carrier. In this way, the mechanical vibrations are introduced into the skin in distinct concentrated positions on the skin.
