Abstract
he invention is composed of the head 1, the limbs 2 starting from the head, the hooks 3 projecting under angle from both limbs and set at a distance analogous to their length, and the ring enabling the extensibility of the limbs 4. The head is stabilized at the bone whereas the two limbs, piercing in parallel the subcutaneous tissue under the skin, are attracted and drawn back so that the subcutaneous tissue and the over situated skin are carried away by the foregoing hooks. The advantage of the invention is that it resolves the problem of the slackening of the skin in a simple, and short chirurgical manner. The result is stable and prolonged. The elasticity of the material allows the system to follow the unhindered motion of the body without being perceptible.
