ABSTRACT:
Direct electrical myostimulation using acupuncture needles as electrodes leads to improvements in the treatment of human muscular ptosis. Pairs of needles are introduced at least as far as the muscular aponeurosis of the ptotic area and a microcurrent is passed between them in line with the muscular fasciculus. The method may advantageously be combined with electrical stimulation of the adipocyte-containing hypoderm to effect lipolysis.
