POWER-ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION DEVICE
The present invention relates to a power-assisted liposuction device. The power-assisted liposuction device includes: a handpiece; a motor mounted inside the handpiece and connected with a power source to provide driving force; a reverse cam of which one end is connected to the motor; and a cannula connected to the other end of the reverse cam. The reverse cam converts a rotary motion of the motor into a linear reciprocating motion so that the cannula performs a reciprocating motion when the motor is operated.
METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF THE SKIN
A method of treating the skin is disclosed that comprises placing a composition including frankincense essential oil on one or more needles; piercing the skin within the boundary of a stretch mark with the one or more needles to a depth between 0.5 mm and 2 mm; and repeating the piercing step over the area of the stretch mark.
Method to divide liposuction fat into aliquots to be used and cryopreserved
A method to divide liposuction fat into aliquots for use and cryopreservation purposes, the method comprising: providing a taking container that contains adipose material removed by liposuction, the adipose material including fat and aqueous fluid; providing a plurality of cryopreservation containers; taking a quantity of the adipose material from the taking container, keeping the quantity of the adipose material isolated from an external environment; separating by gravity the fat from the aqueous fluid in the adipose material of the taken quantity; and transferring the separated fat into one or more cryopreservation containers, to define isolated aliquots of fat.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL DEVICE CONTROL
Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.
Liposuction device and use thereof
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method of cosmetic or biomedical application of a device, comprising a self-contained syringe device comprising an inner syringe included within an outer syringe and wherein a filter is attached inside the outer syringe barrel; wherein the filter comprises a filter material that prevents premature filter collapse where the filter material is optionally coated to increase stiffness, and wherein liposuctioned adipose tissue is collected and purified inside the syringes.
Lipoaspirate Processing
Disclosed are methods and devices for processing lipoaspirate that include mechanically-processing harvested lipoaspirate in a liposuction filter canister. In some embodiments, the devices are liposuction devices that include a lipoaspirate processing unit for mechanically-processing lipoaspirate. The mechanical processing reduces the average size of adipose tissue pieces in the lipoaspirate without substantially rupturing lipocytes therein.
Fat cutter and integrated machine for preparation of in vitro fine-particle fat
A fat cutter and an integrated machine for preparation of in vitro fine-particle fat are provided. The fat cutter includes a fat inlet channel, a fat outlet channel, at least one set of blades disposed between an outlet of the fat inlet channel and an inlet of the fat outlet channel, and a housing that seals a space in which the outlet of the fat inlet channel, the inlet of the fat outlet channel, and the blades are located. A fat inlet of the fat inlet channel is connected to a large-diameter liposuction tube by a liposuction channel, and a fat outlet of the fat outlet channel is connected to a high-negative pressure device. The outlet of the fat inlet channel and the inlet of the fat outlet channel are oppositely provided, and a gap therebetween matches the thickness of the blades.
Pixel array medical systems, devices and methods
Systems, instruments, and methods for minimally invasive procedures including one or more of fractional resection, fractional lipectomy, fractional skin grafting, and/or fractional scar revision are described. Embodiments include instrumentation comprising a scalpet assembly coupled to a carrier, and the scalpet assembly includes a scalpet array. The scalpet array includes one or more scalpets configured for fractional resection, fractional lipectomy, fractional skin grafting, and/or fractional scar revision. The system includes a vacuum component coupled to the scalpet assembly and configured to evacuate tissue from the a site. The carrier is configured to control application of a rotational force and/or a vacuum force to the scalpet assembly.
CLOSED-SYSTEM METHOD AND KIT OF DISPOSABLE ASSEMBLIES FOR ISOLATING MESENCHYMAL STROMAL CELLS FROM LIPOASPIRATE
A closed-system (i.e., hermetically sealed) methods, and kits for isolating Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) from lipoaspirate, that utilizes specific hermetically-sealed, disposable assemblies and containers that are aseptically interconnected, are disclosed. Contemplated methods require lipoaspirate as a starting material, and provide for obtaining isolated, purified MSCs at the end of the process. Kits are contemplated to contain disposable assemblies, composed by sterile components such as modified syringes, tubing, centrifuge tubes, filtering units, that can be aseptically connected while maintaining sterility thereby keeping the system closed (i.e., hermetically sealed) with respect to the external environment. As a result, contamination during the isolation process can be avoided. The MSCs that are obtained at the end of the processing are thus ready to be further manipulated in subsequent operations (in example, expansion) also for therapeutic purposes.
Collagen fiber extraction tool
A collagen fiber extraction tool, which includes a handle, a connecting rod fixed to a front end of the handle, and a tooth member fixed to a front end of the connecting rod. The tooth member includes a body and comb teeth, the comb teeth are strip-shaped, one end of each comb tooth is fixed to the body, a tooth tip is provided at the other end of the comb tooth, and a tooth edge having an acute angle is disposed on a rear side or on both front and rear sides of the comb tooth. The plurality of comb teeth are arranged in a row along the front-rear direction of the body, and a gap is disposed between adjacent comb teeth in the same row.
