A cold plasma system and method for treating a region of a biological surface is presented. In one embodiment, the system includes: a housing; an air conduit within the housing; a first electrode configured proximately along the air conduit; a second electrode configured proximately along the air conduit and opposite from the first electrode; and a source of alternating current (AC) electrically connected with the first electrode. The source of alternating current is configured to generate cold plasma in the air conduit.

The present invention refers to a device to transfer heat and infrared energy with dynamic temperature control and homogeneous heat distribution that places one or more applicator modules on an affected area, later with a control module you can resort to a predefined therapy according to the affected area and some personal data of the patient, or to a therapy provided by the therapist, or even to set a temperature at which the device will heat up; the invention also refers to the manufacturing process of said device. The user can define the time interval that the therapy will last. Alternatively, the user may use a mobile application to control, monitor and personalize therapies, which he or his therapist may define from the mobile application or from a web application, where said pair of applications will be connected to a web API for data synchronization.

A method and an system for vaccinating a mammalian subject. The method includes the steps of: arranging a source of electromagnetic radiation proximate to a target zone of skin of the mammalian subject; controlling the source of electromagnetic radiation to deliver a dose of electromagnetic radiation to the target zone determined to create one or more thermally-denatured zones in the target zone; and intradermally injecting a vaccine within the target zone to vaccinate the mammalian subject. The system for vaccinating a subject may include an electromagnetic radiation source configured to be arranged proximate to a target zone on an exterior of the subject; a user control configured to selectively cause the electromagnetic radiation source to deliver a dose of electromagnetic radiation toward the target zone to create one or more thermally-denatured zones in the target zone; and a vaccine-delivery system configured to deliver a vaccine to the target zone.

An integrated system for increasing skin rejuvenation of a region of a patient's skin and treating subcutaneous fat associated with the region is provided. The system includes at least one first applicator having one or more RF electrodes adapted to be placed on the region of the patient's skin without penetrating the skin. At least one of said RF electrodes is configured to apply RF energy to the region of the patient's skin to heat up to a temperature in a specified temperature range. The system also includes at least one second applicator, in communication with an optical system. The optical system includes at least one laser source and is adapted to provide homogeneous illumination to the skin surface to effect at least one target tissue at a given depth range and power density range.

Periodontal disorders such as disorders associated with a dental implant are treated. An average power for a laser is selected via a user interface on a tablet, along with a set of permissible laser parameters provided in response to the selected average power. A gingival trough or flap is created around the implant with the laser. Infected tissue is selectively ablated or denatured via photothermolysis, and a pocket is lased around the affected implant. Marginal tissues are compressed against the implant.

A detachable light therapy belt includes a circuit board, multiple light emitting components, a contact layer, and a mounting component; the circuit board has a first surface and a second surface; the light emitting components are mounted on the first surface of the circuit board; the contact layer has a contact surface, a connecting surface, and multiple holes; the connecting surface and the contact surface face opposite directions, and the connecting surface is connected to the first surface; the holes are formed through the contact layer and on locations corresponding to the light emitting components; the mounting component has a mounting surface, wherein the mounting surface is mounted on the second surface of the circuit board; the contact layer of the detachable light therapy belt contacts a human body, and the connecting surface of the contact layer is detachable from the first surface of the circuit board.

The present invention is directed to methods of treating diseases and disorders of the skin (e.g., acne) with heat-enabled photodynamic therapy (HEPT).

A rejuvenating beauty care tool for skin and body is an apparatus that enables the user to treat different skin and body areas using different therapeutic and cosmetic techniques. The apparatus may include a handle, a first arm, a second arm, a plurality of first rollers, and a plurality of second rollers. The handle enables the user to comfortably operate the apparatus using only one hand. The handle also supports the first arm and the second arm when the first arm and the second arm are pressed against the user's body. The first arm presses the plurality of first rollers against a first target body area. Likewise, the second arm presses the plurality of second rollers against a second target body area. Further, both the plurality of first rollers and the plurality of second rollers enable the application of the desired cosmetic or therapeutic treatment onto the target body areas.

Systems, methods, and devices used to treat eyelids, meibomian glands, ducts, and surrounding tissue are described herein. In some embodiments, an eye treatment device is disclosed, which includes a scleral shield positionable proximate an inner surface of an eyelid, the scleral shield being made of, or coated with, an energy-absorbing material activated by a light energy, and an energy transducer positionable outside of the eyelid, the energy transducer configured to provide light energy at one or more wavelengths, including a first wavelength selected to heat the energy-absorbing material. Wherein, when the eyelid is positioned between the energy transducer and the scleral shield, the light energy from the energy transducer and the heated energy-absorbing material of the scleral shield conductively heats a target tissue region sufficiently to melt meibum within meibomian glands located within or adjacent to the target tissue region.

Periodontal disorders such as disorders associated with a dental implant are treated with a laser where an average laser power along with other laser parameters provide particular settings for the treatment, the treatment including one or more of creating a gingival trough or flap around the implant, ablating or denaturing infected tissue via photothermolysis, lasing a pocket around the affected implant, and compressing marginal tissues against the implant.
