| 20090093723 | ULTRASOUND DEVICE INCLUDING DISPENSER - An ultrasound device, comprising: a housing; an ultrasound transducer disposed within the housing, the transducer having a wear layer; at least one port formed in the housing; a lubricant reservoir operably connected to the at least one port; and a pump in fluid connection with the lubricant reservoir, the pump dispensing lubricant from the reservoir through the at least one port. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090093737 | ULTRASOUND APPARATUS WITH TREATMENT LENS - An ultrasound apparatus comprising an ultrasound transducer having a geometric focus; an acoustic lens assembly acoustically coupled to the ultrasound transducer; wherein the acoustic lens assembly includes a focal layer that serves to increase relative acoustic pressure in a treatment region proximal to the transducer's geometric focus. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20090093738 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A TREATMENT AREA - A method for monitoring the amount of treatment delivered by a treatment device, comprising: providing a treatment device including at least one activation element; applying a reactive agent to a treatment area, the reactive agent reacting to energy delivered by the at least one activation element; actuating the treatment device and the activation element to deliver treatment. | 04-09-2009 |
| 20100228182 | DISSECTION HANDPIECE AND METHOD FOR REDUCING THE APPEARANCE OF CELLULITE - A dermatological skin treatment device is provided. The device comprises a handpiece and a cutting tool, wherein the tool is inserted through the conduit and percutaneously inserted into a tissue disposed within a recessed area of the handpiece. The device and method cut the fibrous structures under the skin that cause cellulite at an angle substantially parallel to the surface of the skin and replace these structures with a non-cellulite forming structure by deploying a highly fibrous mesh through a single needle hole to create a highly fibrous layer directly or through wound healing processes. | 09-09-2010 |
