Methods for reducing body fat in a subject
Methods are provided for reducing body fat, volume of fat pads, and/or lipoma(s) in a subject. The methods as provided herein may include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of −25° C. to 10° C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates. The methods for reducing body fat in a subject may further include injecting a fat-sculpting liquid comprising saline and benzyl alcohol into a treatment region of the subject, wherein the fat-sculpting liquid has a temperature of −15° C. to 5° C. when injected and is substantially free of frozen particulates.
HEATING IMPLEMENT
A warming device including a heat generating element and an enclosing material that houses the heat generating element is described. A portion of the enclosing material that comes into contact with a target to be warmed when the warming device is in use is made of an air permeable fibrous sheet that contains crimped fibers and non-crimped fibers. The ratio of the non-crimped fibers relative to the total of the crimped fibers and the non-crimped fibers in the fibrous sheet is 50 mass % or more. The fibrous sheet included in the heat generating element is configured to increase the thickness thereof by 0.2 mm or more and 0.7 mm or less during a period from the start to the end of heat generation.
LIFTING BAND
The present invention relates to a lifting band comprising: a band member provided in the form of a plate having elasticity and resilience and having a predetermined area; at least one light source part disposed on one surface of the band member and including a plurality of LEDs that, when power is applied, emit light of a predetermined wavelength band so as to improve the skin; and a cover member which is fixed to one surface of the band member so as to cover the at least one light source part.
CORONAVIRUS-KILLING AND SCALP CARE DEVICE USING CARBON HEATING MAT
Provided is a coronavirus-killing and scalp care device using a carbon heating mat. Carbon heating mats are applied to a coronavirus-killing face cover and a scalp cover which are coupled to or separated from each other as necessary, and a filter part for accommodating a scent material is formed around a nose and mouth portion of the coronavirus-killing face cover. Therefore, a temperature of the scalp is raised to boost immunity, prevent hair loss, and the like, heat is introduced into the human body during breathing through the nose and mouth to kill various disease-causing pathogens (particularly, coronaviruses) in the human body, and a scent material filling the filter part is fumigated by heat generated by the carbon heating mats and introduced into the human body through breathing to prevent and cure diseases.
Polymers, thermochromic agents, and/or hydrogel compositions and apparatus, including products embodying the same, and methods and processes for making same
Polymers, hydrogels, and thermochromic agents, including products embodying them, methods of using them, and processes for making them. In certain embodiments, temperature therapy packs which utilize thermochromic agents integrated into solid, semi-solid, or liquid hydrogels. In preferred (but optional) embodiments, the thermochromic agents are integrated into the composition used as the temperature exchange material of the therapy pack. In certain other embodiments, methods of using the thermochromic integrated temperature exchange materials, or processes for manufacturing such thermochromic integrated temperature exchange materials and/or methods or processes for manufacturing or using thermal packs embodying such materials. In certain particularly preferred embodiments, novel polymer compositions and/or processes for making polymers, which improve product durability or longevity and/or which improve use cycles or usage times.
TREATMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING CELLULITE AND FOR PROVIDING OTHER TREATMENTS
Treatment systems, methods, and apparatuses for improving the appearance of skin or other target regions are described. Aspects of the technology are directed to improving the appearance of skin by tightening the skin, improving skin tone or texture, eliminating or reducing wrinkles, increasing skin smoothness, or improving the appearance sites with cellulite. Treatments can include cooling a surface of a patient's skin and detecting freezing in the cooled skin. The tissue can be cooled after the freeze event is detected so to maintain the frozen state of the tissue to improve the appearance of the treatment site.
Skin treatment apparatus with cooling member
A skin treatment apparatus, such as a microdermabrasion or dermaplaning apparatus, includes a housing having a top end and a bottom end, a treatment head attached to the top end of the housing and arranged to exfoliate skin within a treatment area, and a cooling member provided on the bottom end of the housing arranged to cool skin within the treatment area.
System for applying at least two kinds of liquid onto respective targeted areas of a substrate and method therefor
The present invention relates to a system (1) for applying at least two kinds of liquid onto respective targeted areas of a substrate (S). The system (1) includes first and second storage unit (10a, 10b) that accommodate first and second liquids (F.sub.1, F.sub.2); a pressured gas supply unit (20) that is fluidly connected to the first and second storage unit (10a, 10b); first and second applicator (30a, 30b) that are fluidly connected to the first and second storage unit (10a, 10b); and a controller (40) that is operatively connected to the applicator (30a, 30b). The pressured gas supply unit (20) causes pressure of a pressured gas to act on the liquids (F.sub.1, F.sub.2) within the storage unit (10a, 10b). The first and second applicator (30a, 30b) each include at least one nozzle (300a, 300b) disposed so as to face the substrate (S). The first and second applicator (30a, 30b) spray the first and second liquids (F.sub.1, F.sub.2) within the first and second storage unit (10a, 10b) from the nozzles (300a, 300b) toward the substrate (S) by the action of the pressured gas from the pressured gas supply unit (20). The controller (40) individually controls the first and second applicator (30a, 30b) so that the first applicator (30a) sprays the first liquid (F.sub.1) toward a targeted area for the first liquid (F.sub.1) on the substrate (S) and the second applicator (30b) sprays the second liquid (F.sub.2) toward a targeted area for the second liquid (F.sub.2) on the substrate (S). The present invention also relates to a method for applying at least two kinds of liquid onto respective targeted areas of a substrate (S).
SKIN TREATMENT APPARATUS WITH COOLING MEMBER
A skin treatment apparatus, such as a microdermabrasion or dermaplaning apparatus, includes a housing having a top end and a bottom end, a treatment head attached to the top end of the housing and arranged to exfoliate skin within a treatment area, and a cooling member provided on the bottom end of the housing arranged to cool skin within the treatment area.
TRANSCUTANEOUS TREATMENT SYSTEMS, COOLING DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR COOLING NERVES
Treatment systems, methods, and apparatuses for improving the appearance of skin and other treatments are described. Aspects of the technology are directed to improving the appearance of skin by transcutaneously cooling and affecting nerve tissue so as to inhibit facial muscular contractions and thereby reduce dynamic wrinkling. A non-invasive nerve cooling device can be applied to the subject's head to attenuate nervous system signals to facial muscles.
