A derma roller apparatus is provided. The derma roller apparatus has a handle, an inner stabilizer, and a head connected to the handle via the inner stabilizer. The head includes an axial member positioned transverse to the handle. Furthermore, the head includes a left cylindrical member positioned around the axial member to the left of the inner stabilizer, and a right cylindrical member positioned around the axial member to the right of the inner stabilizer. The head also includes a first plurality of needles situated around the left cylindrical member, and a second plurality of needles situated around the right cylindrical member.

A handheld device for applying mechanical vibration to a body portion of an individual to treat a dry eye condition of the individual, includes: a housing; a member having a first portion accommodated in the housing, and a second portion that is moveable relative to the housing, wherein the second portion is for placement outside the individual, and is configured to oscillate to apply the mechanical vibration to the body portion, the member having an elongated configuration; and a motor in the housing, the motor configured to oscillate the member at an oscillation frequency sufficient to induce tear production when the second portion of the member is applied towards a surface of the body portion.

Methods and devices are described which allow sound waves to be safely be applied to the eyelid of an eye of a patient or through the eyelid to other structures in the eye or to or through structures in the facial region to effect changes to one or more structures in and around the eye or directly through the cornea or sclera to regions of the eye to treat one or more diseases of the eye.

A method to treat a dry eye condition of an individual, includes: receiving a switch signal generated based on a manipulation of a control switch at a handheld device; and activating a motor in response to the switch signal to oscillate a member at an oscillation frequency, the member having an elongated configuration, and having a portion for placement outside the individual; wherein the oscillation frequency is sufficient to induce tear production when the portion of the member is applied towards a surface of a body portion of the individual.

A therapeutic device for treating one or more conditions associated with a user's nasal cavities, sinuses, and/or ear canals includes a vibration generator having an acoustic device operable to provide a sound; a seal configured to cover a nose, but not a mouth, of the user to form an air-tight chamber around the nose of the user; the vibration generator disposed in a housing connected to the seal; and a stand extending from the housing and including a ball bearing and a seat on which the ball bearing may rest, the stand including a hollow member and an orifice, the orifice disposed in the seat. The vibration generator provides the sound directly to the nose of the user. A positive pressure is created in the air-tight chamber when the user exhales, the positive pressure generating a lift force to lift the ball bearing from the seat.

Described here are devices, systems, and methods for treating one or more conditions (such as dry eye) or improving ocular health by providing stimulation to nasal or sinus tissue. Generally, the devices may be handheld or implantable. In some variations, the handheld devices may have a stimulator body and a stimulator probe having one or more nasal insertion prongs. When the devices and systems are used to treat dry eye, nasal or sinus tissue may be stimulated to increase tear production, reduce the symptoms of dry eye, and/or improve ocular surface health.

A system, method and device for providing sound-based therapies to a user. The system, method, and device employ an initial measurement about a user (either or both distances on said user's head or recorded sound), a determination of a resonant frequency, and a wearable actuator affixed on said user's person with the ability to provide a unique resonant frequency to the user. The aspects disclosed herein may also incorporate microphones to optimize and monitor the treatment.
