AESTHETIC METHOD OF BIOLOGICAL STRUCTURE TREATMENT BY MAGNETIC FIELD
20210038906 · 2021-02-11 ·

In combined methods for treating a patient using time-varying magnetic field, treatment methods combine various approaches for aesthetic treatment. A magnetic field generating device is placed proximate to a body region of the patient. The magnetic field generating device generates a time-varying magnetic field with a magnetic flux density in a range of 0.5 to 7 Tesla. The time-varying magnetic field is applied to the body region of the patient in order to cause a contraction of a muscle within the body region. A second therapy may be used by applying one or more of optical waves, radio frequency waves, mechanical waves, negative or positive pressure or heat to the body region of the patient.

METHODS FOR REDUCING BODY FAT IN A SUBJECT
20200337891 · 2020-10-29 ·

Methods are provided for reducing body fat, volume of fat pads, and/or lipoma(s) in a subject. The methods as provided herein may include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of 25 C. to 10 C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates. The methods for reducing body fat in a subject may further include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid comprising saline and benzyl alcohol into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of 15 C. to 5 C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates.

SMART MONOTORING AND SELF-HEATING MUTLI-LAYER BELLY BAND FOR SOOTHING INFANTS
20200305793 · 2020-10-01 · ·

A self-heating belly band for wrapping around an infant is provided. The belly band includes a multi-layer fabric construction that captures the infant's body heat and then reuses it to warm the infant's stomach and internal organs thereby providing the infant relief. The belly band also provides pressure on the infant's waist to provide the infant a cuddling, soothing, and comfort feel. Hook and loop fastener strips on top and bottom layers of the belly band allow wrapping and tightness adjustment around the infant's stomach.

The belly band also includes a plurality of monitoring system that allows medical monitoring of the baby's vital signs. The monitoring system uses ultrasonic sound or infrared light to alert a user when the baby's vital sign increases or decrease from a preselected threshold. The monitor, along with sensors is used to measure blood pressure, heartbeat, temperature, oxygen level, as well as movement. Connected to a mobile phone through an API and a hub, the caregiver is alerted as soon as an emergency occurs or when any of the preselected parameters are exceeded. The mobile API also allows the use to configure settings and receive baby's vitals on demand.
