Abstract (en)

[origin: US5704935A] PCT No. PCT/EP95/00694 Sec. 371 Date Jul. 29, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 29, 1996 PCT Filed Feb. 25, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/24840 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 21, 1995An appliance for epilating hair of the human skin includes an epilation head with at least two electrical conductors and a clamping device for gripping and plucking the hair. The electrical conductors at least temporarily engaging the skin during hair plucking. A casing is attached to the epilation head and a motor housed in the casing drives the clamping device to cause the clamping device to automatically and periodically perform its functions of gripping and plucking. A generator electrically connected to the electrical conductors provides a stimulator current to the skin when the electrical conductors are in contact with the skin so as to electrically stimulate the nerve system under the skin during hair plucking.
