It carried out the experiment from September 17th through October 28th 2007, taking 14 women aged 37 to 55 who have wrinkles started to form or already formed wrinkles. The experiment was performed by irregular low frequency therapeutic instrument over 3 times per week. In the evaluation on instrument by Visiometer, there was not statistical meaningful difference in all the R value at the time of 3 week from management excluding R3 value when comparing them with each R value of before-management, but all the R value showed statical meaningful decrease of wrinkles at the time of 6 weeks. As for the efficacy of skin improvement, most of subjects evaluated positively and no one of subjects experienced side effects of the instrument according to their subjective evaluation. Consequently this study presented the result that it is effective to manage face wrinkles using irregular low frequency therapeutic instrument.
