摘要:
A device for providing radiation-based dermatological treatments includes a device body configured to be handheld by a user; a VCSEL laser supported in the device body, the VCSEL laser including multiple spaced-apart VCSEL beam sources configured to generate multiple discrete laser beams for generating multiple discrete treatment spots on the skin; an application end configured to be manually moved across the surface of the skin during a treatment session; and electronics configured to control the multiple VCSEL beam sources to emit the multiple discrete laser beams toward the skin to provide a dermatological treatment.

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.

A dermatologic treatment apparatus is disclosed that is cordless and sufficiently compact as to be hand-held. A self-contained housing is configured for gripping by a person's hand for cordless manipulation in a dermatologic treatment procedure. A light source and electrical circuit are contained within the housing. The circuit includes one or more batteries and an electronic control circuit for energizing the light source to produce output light pulses. A light path is within the housing including an aperture through which the output light pulses are propagated out of the housing having properties sufficient for providing efficacious treatment.

A compact, hand-held device is provided for providing radiation-based dermatological treatments, e.g., skin resurfacing, skin rejuvenation, wrinkle treatment, pigmentation removal or reduction, hair removal, acne treatment, skin tightening, etc. The device may include one or more radiation sources (e.g., one or more lasers) and an automated scanning system for delivering an array of scanned beams to the skin, while the device is manually moved across the skin, to produce an ar¬ ray of discrete treatment spots on the skin, e.g., to provide a fraction¬ al treatment. The automated scanning system may include a rotating multi-sector scanning element configured to repeatedly scan an input beam, with each scan of the input beam providing an array of output beams corresponding to the multiple sectors of the scanning element and forming a scanned row of treatment spots on the skin.

摘要:
A skin proximity sensor and method are disclosed in a dermatologic treatment device that includes a bezel or similar surface, and a treatment source capable of being activated to supply a dermatologic treatment through the bezel or surface, such as a window or similar port. A plurality of contacts leading to remotely located capacitors, in some embodiments, or a plurality of capacitive sensors in other embodiments, is positioned in or under the bezel and around the window, and control circuitry coupled to the plurality of capacitors senses the change in capacitance due to skin and inhibits activation of the dermatologic treatment device unless the proximity of skin is sensed. The presence of skin is detected, for example, by measuring changes in charge and discharge times, indicating a variation in capacitance.
