Process for the stimulation of production of extracellular dermal proteins in human tissue
First Claim
1. A process for the stimulation of production of extracellular dermal matrix proteins in human tissue which comprises simultaneously delivering to said tissue ultrasound and electrical energy in an amount sufficient for the stimulation of production of extracellular dermal matrix proteins in human tissue;
- wherein a current of said electrical energy is about 100 microamps; and
wherein said ultrasound is provided at a frequency in a range of about 1 to about 4 megahertz.

Abstract
A process for the stimulation of production of extracellular dermal matrix proteins in human tissue through the simultaneous delivery of ultrasound and electrical energy thereto. In another aspect, a wound is purposefully created in the dermal layer of the skin to stimulate natural healing processes to be followed by delivery of ultrasound and electrical energy to further advance the production of extracellular dermal proteins.
