ABSTRACT:
A galvanic current is applied to acupuncture points of a human face by electrodes that are mounted in a predetermined array on a mask-like device that overlies the face. Each electrode is movable along its longitudinal axis so that its leading end is positionable into abutting relation to the face of the wearer of the mask. A low voltage is applied to each electrode and facial tissue is stimulated by a galvanic current that flows between the electrode and a remote ground. An electronic circuit controls activation of each electrode in accordance with a predetermined pattern to provide an optimal, systematic treatment, but the circuit may be overridden in favor of a manual activation of the electrodes so that the treatment may be provided in accordance with any pattern. A rubber sheath overlies the leading end of each electrode and has an enlarged, disc-shaped leading end to ensure treatment of all areas of the face that require stimulation.
