Ficus Retusa - lost most of leaves / dry branches was created by Jacgues

Hello,
My Ficus Retusa is sick for like 3 months. Cause of overfertilization, it has lost most of the leaves and most of the thin branches are dry and dead. Since then i use only water hydration once per week.
It's in stabile condition for long time. How can i cut dry and dead branches and what should i do to promote new branches and leaves growth?

Well it looks as if it is still alive. It also looks very dry. You cannot water as little as that you need to check every day and water when needed. Overfertilising is not the problem, you need to cut the dead brances off, and get the watering right.

Well, i used to water it every 3 days at summer and early autumn.
Should i cut it at this time of year?
