摘要:
Accordingly, a need has arisen for improved compositions, methods, devices, and systems for skin care including, without limitation, topical compositions and phototherapy devices and methods. A skin care method may comprise, in some embodiments, contacting at least a portion of the skin of a subject with a homogeneous, stable, self-foaming composition, illuminating the at least a portion of the skin exclusively with light of a desired wavelength (e.g., from about 390nm to about 430nm, and contacting the at least a portion of the skin with an anli-oxidant serum composition.
摘要:
Apparatuses and systems are provided for non-invasive delivery of microwave therapy. Microwave energy may be applied to epidermal, dermal and subdermal tissue of a patient to achieve various therapeutic and/or aesthetic results. In one embodiment, the microwave energy is applied to a target tissue via an energy delivery applicator connected to an energy generator. The energy delivery applicator may comprise one or more antennas, including monopole, dipole, slot and/or waveguide antennas (among others) that are used to direct the microwave energy to the target tissue. The energy delivery applicator may also comprise a cooling element for avoiding thermal destruction to non-target tissue and/or a suction device to localize thermal treatment at specific portions of a skin fold.
摘要:
A pad like device (1) adapted to be placed over a phototherapy light source contains a medium that provides a comfortable support for a patient during phototherapy treatment and allows a portion of the light emitted by the light source to pass through the pad (2) for phototherapy treatment.
摘要:
Une source lumineuse non laser de haute intensité (1) comporte une lampe à arc de faible longueur, fonctionnant au xénon et munie d'une vitre avant (2a) revêtue pour éliminer la lumière ultraviolette du faisceau émergeant passant par la vitre (2a). Le ventilateur (6) refroidit la source lumineuse (1), la lampe (2) étant alimentée par une source d'énergie (5). Un obturateur (7) commandé par un électroaimant est activé par un interrupteur de commande situé sur le tableau de commande (4) afin d'administrer des doses de lumière de durée déterminée à des fins médicales (par exemple pour le PDT). Un "miroir chaud" dichroïque (8) élimine les radiations infrarouges pour donner un faisceau visible lisse à large bande dans la plage de 350 à 700 nm à 50 mW/nm. Ledit faisceau est filtré par un filtre à bande passante ayant un rendement de 80 % (9) de 20 à 25 nm et focalisé par une lentille asphérique (10) ayant un diamètre compris entre 10 et 6 mm sur la vitre de sortie (11), après quoi il est envoyé dans le paquet de fibres (15). Une grille d'atténuation (12) est prévue pour permettre la régulation de l'intensité du faisceau sortant.
摘要:
Disclosed is an applicator or handpiece configured to apply treatment energy to a segment of skin located in a tissue or skin treatment plane. The treatment energy could be RF energy, applied by a pair of bipolar RF electrodes or optical energy. The applicator includes an optical system configured to form a rectangular spot and homogenize the optical energy distribution.
摘要:
Methods for focused remodeling and downsizing the volume of subcutaneous lipid-rich cells, body contouring, and tightening skin tissue, using controlled heating of the targeted areas on the body. The electromagnetic energy heats the. subcutaneous tissues which provides the desired effect. The electromagnetic energy is applied via an applicator without touching the skin. A spacer of insulating or dielectric material may be provided between the applicator and the skin.
摘要:
A treatment for subcutaneous fat and/or cellulite includes a system (30) to non-invasively deliver a beam of radiation to a target region of skin, comprising: an optical energy source (32) and a handpiece (36) the handpiece (36) includes an optical system to direct the beam of radiation to the target region of skin, the handpiece is further configured to be positioned: a) in contact with a skin surface, b) adjacent a skin surface, c) proximate a skin surface, spaced from a skin surface, or a combination of aforementioned; characterized in that the optical energy source (32) provides a beam of radiation within a range of wavelengths that can be transmitted to fatty tissue and absorbed by the fatty tissue in a target region of skin; and wherein the wavelength is one of a group of wavelengths consisting of the wavelength about 1,208 nm, 1,270 nm, 1,310 nm, 1,450 nm, 1,550 nm, 1,720 nm.
