METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REDUCING FAT CELLS IN A HUMAN BODY

According to an exemplary embodiment, a method and system of non-surgical, non-invasive body contouring and weight reduction treatments may be shown and described. These treatments may provide tissue remodeling, such as skin tightening and skin contour smoothening, as well as provide other cosmetic applications. The method and system may include determining an area of tissue suitable for a noninvasive cosmetic treatment, targeting the area with radiant energy, stimulating the area with a series of micro-pulses, and massaging the area with a vibrational plate. The system and method may result in the reduction of undesired fat deposits and correction of other skin conditions, such as loose skin and cellulite. Furthermore, all aspects of the present method and system may be performed in a non-invasive manner.

Personalized pain management treatments
09875340 · 2018-01-23 · ·

Systems and methods disclosed herein provide efficacious pain management therapies based on delivery of physical medicine(s) via computer-implemented systems. Patient information comprising patient pain symptoms, patient physiological measurements, patient demographics, and other information is received at a pain therapy device. The patient information is compared with pain analytics data compiled on a plurality of individuals to determine a personalized pain management therapy. The personalized pain management therapy is applied via a combination of thermoceuticals, electroceuticals, ultrasound, and several other forms of physical medicine. Sensors coupled to the pain therapy device measure changes in physiological data resulting from the pain management therapy. The personalized pain management therapy can be adjusted based on the changes in the physiological data and/or patient feedback. The patient information, information about the applied therapy, and therapy outcome information is added to the analytics database.

TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT ADHESION BETWEEN APPLICATOR AND SKIN DURING COOLING OF TISSUE

A method and apparatus in accordance with a particular embodiment of the present invention includes applying adhesive onto skin of a human subject. An applicator is then brought into contact with the adhesive such the adhesive is disposed between the applicator and the subject's skin. The applicator is activated to cool a tissue region via the subject's skin, via the heat-transfer surface of the applicator, and via the adhesive. While the tissue region cools, the adhesive also cools, thereby reversibly strengthening adhesion between the subject's skin and the heat-transfer surface and forming a strong bond therebetween. The strengthened adhesion inhibits any movement of the applicator relative to the skin. After cooling the tissue region, the adhesive is warmed, thereby weakening the adhesion which allows the heat-transfer surface of the applicator to be easily separated from the skin.
