403 results about "Cosmesis" patented technology

Cosmesis is the preservation, restoration, or bestowing of bodily beauty. In the medical context, it usually refers to the surgical correction of a disfiguring defect, or the cosmetic improvements made by a surgeon following incisions. Its use is generally limited to the additional, usually minor, steps that the surgeon (who is generally operating for noncosmetic indications) takes to improve the aesthetic appearance of the scars associated with the operation. Typical actions include removal of damaged tissue, mitigation of tension on the wound, and/or using fine (thin) sutures to close the outer layer of skin.

Anatomical models and methods for training and demonstration of medical procedures

Anatomical models representing one or more anatomical structures of a human or non-human animal and related methods for demonstrating, training, promotion and sale of medical, cosmetic and surgical products or procedures. A working device is inserted into the anatomical model and used to perform a simulated procedure, thereby causing an indicator apparatus (e.g., a removable business card) to become perceptibly altered. The indicator apparatus may then be removed and provided a potential user, consumer or purchaser of the medical, surgical or cosmetic product.

Inductive heating of tissues using alternating magnetic fields and uses thereof

The present invention improves the cosmetic appearance of skin by controllably heating a superficial layer of skin thereby inducing acute tissue contraction or shrinkage and a wound response leading to the production of biomolecules, all of which result in improved cosmesis. The invention incorporates a source of radiofrequency electrical energy coupled to coil, with requisite impedance matching network, thereby resulting in the production of an alternating magnetic field. When tissue is brought into proximity of the alternating magnetic field, inductive heating of the tissue results as a consequence of either or both of dipole formation and oscillation, and eddy current formation. Optionally, cooling is provided to remove heat from the coil, the source of radiofrequency electrical energy, or the surface of the skin alone or in combination. The invention exhibits the significant benefits of, among other things, being non-invasive, not requiring electrical contact with the body of the subject, and providing controllable heating only to a thin layer of tissue.

Robotic System for Delivering Energy for Treatment of Skin of a Subject

A robotic system for delivering energy for medical or cosmetic treatment of a region of skin of a subject includes a multi-axis robotic arm mounted on a base and terminating at a holder. An applicator for delivering energy to the skin is mounted in the holder. The holder has at least three range sensors generating outputs of a distance to at least three spaced apart locations on the surface of the skin. A controller associated with the robotic arm and the range sensors processes the outputs from the at least three range sensors to determine an orientation of the holder relative to the skin, and actuates the robotic arm to adjust an orientation of the holder such that an orientation of the applicator relative to the skin is maintained within a predefined range of desired angles.

Device for dermabrasion

Skin dermabrasion device by gently contacting the skin with an abrasive, comprising a handleable housing (10) and driving means for the abrasive. This device is intended in particular for cosmetic treatments of the epidermis called microepidermabrasion. The device comprises a curved abrasive surface (30) held by a support (32) mounted in or on the housing (10, 18) for an oscillatory motion allowing the oscillation of the curved abrasive surface (30) about its axis. A support surface (40) surrounds the abrasive surface (30) on at least two opposing sides leaving a gap to allow the oscillating motion. The device is arranged in such a way as to allow, by the application of the support surface (44) against the skin (50) and around the region of the skin to be treated, the gentle contact of this region of skin with the oscillating abrasive surface. Thus a microabrasion of the epidermis through the oscillation of the curved abrasive surface (30) lightly applied against the skin is achieved, thanks to the support surface (40) that prevents any injury or penetration beyond the epidermis.
