A magnetically driven tattoo machine is disclosed, which has a substantially radially symmetric exterior shape and be driven by a sensor-controlled electromagnetic coil. The machine has no oscillating mechanical components, and thus reduces or eliminates vibration. The machine may include a housing mechanically isolated from a needle cartridge or subcomponents that can be disassembled and sterilized. The electromagnet may be controlled by a sensor integral with the coil, housed within the machine, or within an external power supply. The machine may be powered by internal battery or by an external power source. The machine may also be controlled wirelessly.

A microneedling machine for tattooing is disclosed, which has a substantially radially symmetric exterior shape and may include subcomponents that can be disassembled and sterilized. The machine may include an adjustment mechanism for configuring the impact of the microneedle into skin. The machine may also include a motion translation device adapted to change rotational motion of the drive shaft or motor into linear reciprocating motion of the microneedle.

A tattooable element for decorating fashion or decorative objects and the limbs of the human body is provided that includes a polymer layer (2) suitable for tattooing and a reinforcing element (3) of the tattooable layer. The reinforcing element (3) can be an element that is separate from the polymer layer (2) and fixed to the polymer layer (2), or it can be integrated into the polymer layer (2). Optionally, the reinforcing element (3) prevents the needle from penetrating the tattooable element during the tattooing of the polymer layer (2). If used to decorate human limbs, it takes the form of an adaptable elastic tubular sheath.

An electric tattoo machine drive that can be fully controlled electronically using audio technology. An electric tattoo machine drive that can be adjusted hands free or manually by a simple tone generator application on a mobile device. An electric tattoo machine drive able to function in any manner desired by the operator. An electric tattoo machine drive capable of running needle cartridges with a coil machine. A tattoo machine drive able to fit the demands of all users with only one machine. One electric tattoo machine drive to rule them all.

This invention provide novel compositions, methods and devices for sustained drug delivery. The compositions can include a fluid carrier; a plurality of first polymeric microparticles having a bioactive agent dispersed in the fluid carrier; and a plurality of second polymeric microparticles having a visualization agent dispersed in the fluid carrier with the first microparticles. Alternative compositions can include: a fluid carrier; and a plurality of polymeric microparticles having a bioactive agent encapsulated therein and a visualization agent on a surface of the polymeric microparticles, the plurality of polymeric microparticles being dispersed in the fluid carrier. The microencapsulated sustained drug delivery compositions are deposited using oscillating needle apparatus oscillating at 10-12000 minutes per minutes at an amount of 1.0E-03 mL to 1.0E-16 mL per injection.

A storage and sterilizing case shaped and dimensioned for storing a tattoo machine therein. The case has a cover and a base. The cover is connected to the base via a hinge securing the cover to the base along adjacent edges thereof. The base includes a tray for supporting the tattoo machine within the case. The interior of the case is provided with an electronic circuit board and at least one ultraviolet light.

Embodiments of the invention include a breast nipple areola complex tattoo stencil comprising first, second and third stencil sections. The first stencil section defines an areola area. The second stencil section defines a nipple area and tubercle areas. One or more registration elements on the first and/or second stencil sections enable registration of the second stencil section to the first stencil section. The third stencil section defines one or both of a nipple shading area and a nipple highlight area. One or more registration elements on the third and/or second stencil sections enable registration of the third stencil section to the second stencil section.

A linear drive for pigmentation devices, comprising a stator, an air gap which is provided in the stator and is formed so as to be offset in a defined manner, an electric coil within the stator, said coil being designed to produce a concentration of the magnetic flux in the air gap as a result of the coil being energized, an armature which is designed to carry out sliding axial movements in the stator, and a permanent magnet which is captively connected to the armature.

An independently operable offset wireless tattoo machine battery pack is disclosed. The battery pack is offset relative to a tattoo machine power interface such that the center of gravity of the battery pack is longitudinally closer to the center of gravity of the tattoo machine than is the power interface. The offset wireless tattoo machine battery pack may include electronic circuitry that controls and operates a tattoo machine independent of any separate control unit, providing a unified wireless standalone tattoo machine.

A device for repeated intradermal injections within an organic tissue. The device comprises a support defining an internal housing for receiving a vial containing an aqueous solution, a source of pressurized air in fluid communication with the vial, a tube defining a pressurized solution path, a hollow injection needle, an injection head, a driven element with a distal end connected to the injection head, an actuator connected to the driven element, and a valve in fluid communication with the pressurized solution path for controlling a flow of the pressurized solution into the tube from the vial up to the distal end of the hollow injection needle.
