FOCUSED ULTRASOUND DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DERMATOLOGICAL TREATMENT
A focused ultrasound device and method for dermatological treatment. The focused ultrasound device includes a focused ultrasound applicator, an automatic motion mechanism, a driver, a computer, a software operation interface. In addition, the focused ultrasound method for dermatological treatment utilizes the same focused ultrasound applicator, to achieve coaxial deep layer and shallow layer ablation treatment of the skin.
Probe for ultrasound tissue treatment
A method and system for providing ultrasound treatment to a tissue that contains a lower part of dermis and proximal protrusions of fat lobuli into the dermis. An embodiment delivers ultrasound energy to the region creating a thermal injury and coagulating the proximal protrusions of fat lobuli, thereby eliminating the fat protrusions into the dermis. An embodiment can also include ultrasound imaging configurations using the same or a separate probe before, after or during the treatment. In addition various therapeutic levels of ultrasound can be used to increase the speed at which fat metabolizes. Additionally the mechanical action of ultrasound physically breaks fat cell clusters and stretches the fibrous bonds. Mechanical action will also enhance lymphatic drainage, stimulating the evacuation of fat decay products.
Ultrasound probe for treating skin laxity
A probe for ultrasound treatment of skin laxity are provided. Systems and methods can include ultrasound imaging of the region of interest for localization of the treatment area, delivering ultrasound energy at a depth and pattern to achieve the desired therapeutic effects, and/or monitoring the treatment area to assess the results and/or provide feedback. In an embodiment, a treatment system and method can be configured for producing arrays of sub-millimeter and larger zones of thermal ablation to treat the epidermal, superficial dermal, mid-dermal or deep dermal components of tissue.
BEAUTY MEDICAL DEVICE
According to one aspect of the present invention, provided is a beauty medical device comprising: a handpiece body having an ultrasonic emission surface prepared at one end; an ultrasonic generation unit which is provided inside the handpiece body and which generates an ultrasonic wave so as to emit same at the skin through the ultrasonic emission surface; and a high frequency generation unit disposed on the circumference of the ultrasonic emission surface at one end of the handpiece body so as to generate a high frequency.
ULTRASONIC GENERATOR WITH ADJUSTABLE ULTRASONIC FOCUSING DEPTH AND METHOD FOR TREATING OBESITY USING FOCAL DISTANCE CONTROL ACCORDING TO HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL DIRECTIONS BY USING THE SAME
Provided is an ultrasonic generator with an adjustable ultrasonic focusing depth. The ultrasonic generator with an adjustable ultrasonic focusing depth includes a cartridge housing in which an ultrasound generation portion generating ultrasonic waves is provided, a hand piece in which the cartridge housing is detachably mounted, the hand piece having a first actuator thereinside, and a main shaft to which the ultrasound generation portion is coupled so as to reciprocate in a horizontal direction, parallel to the bottom of the cartridge housing and a vertical direction, perpendicular to the bottom of the cartridge housing. One end of the main shaft is coupled to one end of the first actuator of the hand piece, and an other end of the main shaft is located inside the cartridge housing. The hand piece includes an adjustment portion adjusting an ultrasonic focusing depth of the ultrasound generation portion.
SYSTEMS FOR ULTRASOUND TREATMENT
Embodiments provide an ultrasound treatment system. In some embodiments, the system includes a removable transducer module having an ultrasound transducer. In some embodiments, the system can include a hand wand and a control module that is coupled to the hand wand and has a graphical user interface for controlling the removable transducer module, and an interface coupling the hand wand to the control module. The interface may provide power to the hand wand or may transfer a signal from the hand wand to the control module. In some embodiments, the treatment system may be used in cosmetic procedures on at least a portion of a face, head, neck, and/or other part of a patient.
SONOTRODE
Disclosed are methods and devices for treatment of subcutaneous fat by simultaneously transdermally inducing both ultrasonic transverse vibrations and ultrasonic longitudinal vibrations in subcutaneous tissue, for example for reduction of subcutaneous fat.
FAT TISSUE TREATMENT
A system for treating fat tissue, including: an ultrasound applicator, including: two or more ultrasound transducers configured to generate and direct ultrasonic waves to a selected tissue volume including fat tissue; a control unit, including: a control circuitry electrically connected to the two or more ultrasound transducers, wherein the control circuitry is configured to activate the two or more ultrasound transducers to heat the selected tissue volume.
Handpieces for tissue treatment
A dermatological skin treatment device is provided. The device comprises a handpiece and a cutting tool, wherein the tool is inserted through the conduit and percutaneously inserted into a tissue disposed within a recessed area of the handpiece. The device and method cut the fibrous structures under the skin that cause cellulite at an angle substantially parallel to the surface of the skin and replace these structures with a non-cellulite forming structure by deploying a highly fibrous mesh through a single needle hole to create a highly fibrous layer directly or through wound healing processes.
