摘要: Aging and sagging subcutaneous muscles are treated by first applying a composition containing at least one acetylcholine precursor and/or compound exhibiting catecholamine activity to the overlying skin area, then electronically stimulating area using electrical pulses in amounts sufficient cause contract. Preferred compositions contain from about 1% 10%, more narrowly 0.25% 5% weight of an alkanolamine such as dimethylaminoethanol, calcium salt 2-aminoethanol phosphate or mixtures thereof tyrosine. electronic muscle devices deliver via electrodes fingertips compact device that fits on hand.
