PIXEL ARRAY MEDICAL SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS
Systems, instruments, methods, and compositions are described involving removing a portion of the epidermis within a donor site on a subject, and harvesting dermal plugs within the donor site. An injectable filler is formed by mincing the dermal plugs. The injectable filler is configured for injecting into a recipient site on the subject.

SKIN TAG REMOVER
The present invention is a skin tag remover which includes a cord formed into a loop at a tag end for placing around a skin tag, a cord housing for receiving a portion of the cord there through and a finger ring attached to a ring end of the cord. Pulling on the finger ring tightens the loop around the skin tag and places the cord into a constricted position so that blood flow is restricted to the skin tag. A blade is included in the cord housing with a plunger that urges the blade downward to sever and detach the cord from the cord housing.
Gum Graft Collector
A graft collector designed to facilitate and offer greater precision in performing the cutting and “dissection” of an area of the donor tissue in grafting operations. The graft collector is set as an anatomical grip handle based on a support head and fixation of a removable curved or angled blade. The cutting blade is provided with a cutting edge on two opposite sides, being folded in two points at 90°. The constructive arrangement of the graft collector allows the fixation of the cutting blade and its loosening and release for replacement. The said graft collector is a precise and anatomical grip instrument, designed for the good manual performance of the professional when cutting and removing the tissue to be used as a graft.
Two-dimensional needle array device and method of use
In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a device for obtaining biological tissue. In some embodiments, the device can include a first row of a plurality of hollow tubes; a second row of a plurality of hollow tubes, adjacent the first row of hollow tubes; a third row of a plurality of hollow tubes, adjacent the second row of hollow tubes, the first, second and third rows forming an array of hollow tubes; wherein each hollow tube can include at least one point at the distal end of the hollow tube, the plurality of rows forming a two dimensional array of hollow tubes; wherein an inner diameter of the at least one tube is less than about 1 mm, the distal end of each of the hollow tubes is configured to be inserted into a biological tissue donor site to remove a portion of tissue therefrom when each of the hollow tubes is withdrawn from the donor site.

Hydraulically actuated skin graft harvesting
The present invention generally relates to devices and systems that utilize an inflatable bladder for generating, cutting, capturing, and/or transplanting one or more skin blisters. In some aspects, methods and devices in accordance with the present teachings can enable the harvesting of skin grafts from an increased variety of potential donor sites, such as areas of the body having uneven surfaces or a smaller radius of curvature (e.g., the arm) or large area donor sites where the creation of a vacuum may require a high power negative pressure source. In various aspects, systems, devices, and methods in accordance with the present teachings can also enable the efficient transplant of the grafts directly from the skin graft harvester to the recipient site without the transfer of the grafts generated by the harvester to another substrate prior to transplantation.

Device and Method for Producing a Micro-Graft Matrix from Full-Thickness Skin
A device set and a method for producing a micro-graft matrix with a plurality of punched full-thickness skin parts (12) from skin includes a film set of at least one first film (1) and one second film (2), which adhere to and are peelable from one another; an adhesive (10) to stick the first film (1) onto the skin; a cutting device with an adapter to provide a predefined distance to the skin and to make a plurality of hollow-cylindrical cuts vertical to the film set down to a predetermined depth in the skin underneath, the film set being respectively cut and divided, so that an outer portion of the second film can be peeled off and inner portions remain; and a third film (3), stuck in contact with the second film (2). The punched full-thickness skin parts can be extracted from the skin as the micro-graft matrix using the third film (3).
