摘要:
A device and method for utilizing optical radiation to treat tissue are described. In one aspect, the device is a dermatological treatment device. The device can be used, for example, for treatment of dermatological and cosmetic conditions. The device can include a sensor that indicates when the device is in contact with a subject's tissue. Operation of the device can, in some instances, be partially or fully automated. The device can further include a light source that is air cooled and a cooling plate that is chilled preferably to 5° C. The device can also include a window that is enlarged to reduce the power density and facilitate heating of tissue at depth.
摘要:
An apparatus is disclosed for use by a consumer in a non-medical setting that uses at least one low power optical radiation source in a suitable device that can be positioned over a treatment area for a substantial period of time or can be moved over the treatment area one or more times during each treatment. The apparatus can be moved over or applied to or near the consumer's skin surface as light or other electromagnetic radiation is applied to the skin.

摘要:
The present invention provides method and apparatus for treating tissue in a region at depth while protecting non-targeted tissue by cyclically applying cooling to the patients skin, and preferably to the region, and by applying radiation to the patient's skin above the region to selectively heat tissue during and/or after cooling is applied. At least one of cooling and radiation my be applied by successively passing a continuous output applicator over the patient's skin. Treatment may also be enhanced by applying mechanical, acoustic or electrical stimulation to the region.

This invention relates to apparatus for using a lamp for treatment of a patient's skin, which lamp is more efficient then prior such devices and to methods of using lamps for various skin treatments. The apparatus improves efficiency by minimizing photon leakage and by other enhancements. The invention also includes various enhancements to waveguides used for optical treatment on a patient's skin.
摘要:
Oral phototherapy applicators are disclosed that are sized and shaped so as to fit at least partially in a user's mouth with a plurality of bristles of elongate shape coupled to an apparatus body. The applicators can be adapted to brush the user's teeth and further include at least one radiation emitter coupled to the body to provide phototherapeutic radiation to a portion of the oral cavity other than tissue in contact with the bristles. In one embodiment, the applicator include a heat transfer element, such as, for example a fluid pump.
