Abstract:

A device for uplifting facial skin which includes adhesive pads and a nylon line secured over the wearer's head. Upward pulling forces are applied by the line through an elastomeric tension strap which is light or flesh toned color for purposes of concealment. The lower end of the tension strap is releasably mounted to the upward end of a T-bar connector which is formed of a transparent, compliant material. The upper margin of each pad is wrapped over and secured to a crossbar on the lower end of the connector so that the pulling forces are evenly distributed across the width of the pad. When adhering to the facial skin the pads are adjusted to the desired position by a releasable clip through which the nylon line is secured.
