US Patent 8707561 Shaving device with a pad

The present invention provides a shaving device that includes a handle for better control, and a stand that has a pad with sufficient surface area to comfortably compress and frictionally grip to tighten skin in relation to the working plane of one or more blades of the shaving device for smoother shave. The stand tightens the skin for closer shave, and compresses it below a level of existing hair growth, causing the hair follicles to protrude for even a better and closer shave. The stand further pushes the skin away from in-between the razor heads to diminish cuts and nicks, all for a closer shave.
