Systems, methods, and new file formats are provided for printing 3D microstructures. In some implementations, a new file format is provided that defines 3D objects by a wireframe model expressed as a collection of wires. Because wires and their parameters are defined within the new file format, objects may be processed more efficiently and quickly to support 3D rendering operations. Such methods may be used to print new articles, such as eyelashes, bushes, swabs and other novel items.

The present invention is concerned with a skin treatment device and an interface for, preferably detachably, attaching a brush to a skin treatment device, wherein the skin treatment device comprises a drive unit, a component part driven by the drive unit to perform a rotatory and/or oscillating movement and a hood at least partially encasing said driven component part. One of said brush and said driven component part comprises at least two protrusions which both extend through openings in the hood when the brush is attached to the skin treatment device. At least one of said protrusions engages the other of said brush and said driven component part by snap fit when the brush is attached to the skin treatment device.
