Integrated device for the non-invasive personalised treatment of skin blemishes and associated multi-step method
Integrated device for the non-invasive personalised treatment of skin blemishes includes: a handpiece for performing a percussive treatment on the body/face, causing a microtrauma on the wrinkle furrow, facilitating the natural recovery and the reduction of the wrinkle depth; a handpiece for carrying out an ablative micro-vibration treatment on the body, suitable to expand or compact the cutaneous tissue by alleviating wrinkles, stretch marks and scars with an exfoliating effect; a handpiece for performing a compressive micro-vibration treatment on the face, expanding the pores of the epidermis; a device for adjusting the rotation and vibration of the handpieces; an electric energy absorption sensor for each handpiece, communicating the detected data to a control unit which acts on the frequency adjustment devices obtaining a variation in the rotation and vibration frequency of the rotors, depending on the mechanical strength of the skin tissue; a communication interface.
SKIN TREATMENT TOOL
Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for softening fascia and/or performing mini cupping to increase blood flow to surface and subsurface anatomical structures, including a tool which employs a rotatable hub having a combination of small suction cups and mechanical compression elements positioned thereon.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING FLUID STASIS
Systems and methods for treating fluid stasis employ an airstream to move static fluid to one or more natural drainage areas for static fluid. A system for treating fluid stasis includes an airstream nozzle and an airflow generator for supplying an airflow to the airstream nozzle. The airflow nozzle is configured to output an airstream configured to be directed onto a patient to induce shear-thinning of static fluid and movement of static fluid toward one or more natural drainage areas for static fluid.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SKIN TREATMENT BY HEATING AND MUSCLE STIMULATION
A method and a system for treating skin tissue are provided. At least one heat generating element is configured to modify temperature of the skin tissue, a muscle stimulating element is configured to provide muscle stimulation to a muscle layer located below the skin tissue, a handheld applicator is configured to be placed in vicinity of the skin tissue to deliver said temperature modification from said at least one heat generating element to the skin tissue and said muscle stimulation from said muscle stimulating element to the muscle layer located below the skin tissue; and a control board configured and operable to activate the at least one heat generating element and the muscle stimulating element according to respective activation patterns; thereby providing one or more treatments to the skin tissue.
Electro-actuatable compression garments with shape memory elements
A compression garment having one or more flex frames that can be shortened or lengthened to apply or release a compressive force to the limb or other anatomical feature of a user. The compression garment can have a wire made of shape memory material (shape memory alloy). A controller of the compression garment can supply an electrical input to the wire, generating heat that can cause the wire to contract such that the flex frame deflects to a shorter length to apply a compressive force to the limb or other anatomical feature of the user. The one or more flex frames can be contracted in unison or in sequence to direct the flow of bodily fluids in the limb or other anatomical feature of the user.
Vacuum massager
A vacuum massager includes a housing having an upper portion and a lower portion, and a cup attachment arranged to be removably received on the lower portion of the housing. An air pump is disposed within the housing in fluid communication with the cup attachment for generating suction therein, such that contact of the cup attachment with a user's skin creates a vacuum within the cup attachment. A controller is disposed within the housing in electrical communication with the air pump. The vacuum massager further includes a cooling attachment interchangeable with the cup attachment and arranged to be removably received on the lower portion of the housing in electrical communication with the controller for cooling the user's skin.
Systems and methods for laser treatment of a dermatologic condition
Some embodiments are directed to a skin treatment system that contains a laser generating device. A hydrogel patch may include a region, at a first side of the hydrogel patch, to be in contact with a person's skin. The region may contain an adsorbing medium (e.g., carbon black or any other substance that would have a similar effect) that, when receiving a laser beam from the laser generating device, results in Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) being applied to the person's skin to treat a dermatologic condition such as an epidermal or dermal tissue structure irregularity, cellulite, a stretch mark, a scar, scar-tissue, a hypertrophic scar, an acne scar, etc.
