Summary for Patent: 10,206,743
Title: | Dermatological Handpiece with Applicator Tip |
Abstract: | The present invention provides a laser system and laser handpiece and process for skin treatment. The system includes components for producing a continuous or pulse laser beam, and components for delivering a substance to the damaged region of skin. The system is designed to control and utilize the laser beam for damaging small volume of skin tissue and using a disposable tip to deliver a substance which is applied simultaneously or with some delay producing a combination of laser action with the action of a named substance at the same time. |

Application Number: | 15/825,102 |
Patent Claims: | 1. A device for simultaneously applying compositions and electromagnetic energy to the skin of a subject, the device comprising: a) a handpiece connected to an
electromagnetic energy source configured to deliver electromagnetic energy to the skin of a subject; and b) a tip configured to detachably connect to the handpiece, wherein the tip comprises: (i) a plurality of applicators, each applicator comprising: a
reservoir configured to contain a composition; and an opening; and (ii) a cap configured to cover the openings and detachably connect to the tip, wherein the applicators form the terminal end of the tip when the tip is free of the cap.
2. The device of claim 1, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver energy selected from the group consisting of laser energy, microwave energy, radio frequency energy, electroporating energy, light emitting diode energy, and non-coherent light energy. 3. The device of claim 1, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver continuous laser energy or pulse laser beam energy. 4. The device of claim 1, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver laser energy at a wavelength selected from the group consisting of 532 nM, 540 nM, 980 nM, 1,064 nM, 1,440 nM, 1,550 nM, 1,930 nM, 2,790 nM, 2,940 nM, and 10,600 nM. 5. The device of claim 1, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver laser energy and the handpiece comprises beam-shaping lenses configured to focus the laser energy on the skin of the subject when the applicators are in contact with the skin of the subject. 6. The device of claim 1, wherein the reservoirs are configured to contain a composition that is in a form selected from the group consisting of a suspension, solution, cream, and gel. 7. The device of claim 1, wherein the reservoirs are configured to contain a composition selected from the group consisting of a medication, skin care product, anesthetic, vitamin, antioxidant, stem cell factor, stem cell, ointment, growth factor, dye, fibroblast, botox, drug, antibody, hyaluronic acid, cosmetic, and combinations thereof. 8. The device of claim 1, wherein the tip comprises a ball applicator. 9. The device of claim 1, wherein the tip comprises a heater for heating the composition. 10. The device of claim 1, wherein the device comprises a cooling air tube for cooling the skin of the subject. 11. A device for simultaneously delivering compositions and electromagnetic energy to the skin of a subject, the device comprising: a) a handpiece connected to an electromagnetic energy source configured to deliver electromagnetic energy to the skin of a subject; and b) a disposable tip, wherein the disposable tip has a top and a bottom, and wherein the disposable tip: (i) is configured to detachably connect to the handpiece at the top of the disposable tip; and (ii) comprises a plurality of applicators each comprising: a reservoir configured to contain a composition; and an opening for placing the reservoir in fluid communication with the skin of the subject; c) wherein the disposable tip is in contact with a removable cap for covering the opening in each applicator; d) and wherein the bottom of the disposable tip terminates in the applicators when the disposable tip is free of the cap. 12. The device of claim 11, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver energy selected from the group consisting of laser energy, microwave energy, radio frequency energy, electroporating energy, light emitting diode energy, and non-coherent light energy. 13. The device of claim 11, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver continuous laser energy or pulse laser beam energy. 14. The device of claim 11, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver laser energy at a wavelength selected from the group consisting of 532 nM, 540 nM, 980 nM, 1,064 nM, 1,440 nM, 1,550 nM, 1,930 nM, 2,790 nM, 2,940 nM, and 10,600 nM. 15. The device of claim 11, wherein the electromagnetic energy source is configured to deliver laser energy and the handpiece comprises beam-shaping lenses configured to focus the laser energy on the skin of the subject when the applicator is in contact with the skin of the subject. 16. The device of claim 11, wherein the reservoirs are configured to contain a composition that is in a form selected from the group consisting of a suspension, solution, cream and gel. 17. The device of claim 11, wherein the reservoirs are configured to contain a composition selected from the group consisting of a medication, skin care product, anesthetic, vitamin, antioxidant, stem cell factor, stem cell, ointment, growth factor, dye, fibroblast, botox, drug, antibody, hyaluronic acid, cosmetic, and combinations thereof. 18. The device of claim 11, wherein the disposable tip comprises a ball applicator. 19. The device of claim 11, wherein the disposable tip comprises a heater for heating the composition. 20. The device of claim 11, wherein the device comprises a cooling air tube for cooling the skin of the subject. |
