| 20080214988 | Methods And Devices For Fractional Ablation Of Tissue - Methods and devices for ablating portions of a tissue volume with electromagnetic radiation (EMR) to produce lattices of EMR-treated ablation islets in the tissue are disclosed, including lattices of micro-holes, micro-grooves, and other structures. Also, methods and devices for using the ablated islets are disclosed, including to deliver chromophores, filler, drugs and other substances to the tissue volume. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080294152 | Cooling System For A Photocosmetic Device - Photocosmetic device for use in medical or non-medical environments (e.g., a home, barbershop, or spa), which can be used for a variety of tissue treatments. Radiation is delivered to the tissue via optical systems designed to pattern the radiation and project the radiation to a particular depth. The device has a variety of cooling systems including phase change cooling solids and liquids to cool treated skin and the radiation sources. Contact sensors and motion sensor may be used to enhance treatment. The device may be modular to facilitate manufacture and replacement of parts. | 11-27-2008 |

| 20080306471 | Methods and devices for fractional ablation of tissue - Methods and devices for ablating portions of a tissue volume with electromagnetic radiation (EMR) to produce lattices of EMR-treated ablation islets in the tissue are disclosed, including lattices of micro-holes, micro-grooves, and other structures. Also, methods and devices for using the ablated islets are disclosed, including to deliver chromophores, filler, drugs and other substances to the tissue volume. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090024193 | Method And Apparatus For Photothermal Treatment Of Tissue At Depth - The present invention provides method and apparatus for treating tissue in a region at depth by applying optical radiation thereto of a wavelength able to reach the depth of the region and of a selected relatively low power for a duration sufficient for the radiation to effect the desired treatment while concurrently cooling tissue above the selected region to protect such tissue. Treatment may be enhanced by applying mechanical, acoustic or electrical stimulation to the region. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090069741 | Methods And Devices For Fractional Ablation Of Tissue For Substance Delivery - Methods and devices for ablating portions of a tissue volume with electromagnetic radiation (EMR) to produce lattices of EMR-treated ablation islets in the tissue are disclosed, including lattices of micro-holes, micro-grooves, and other structures. Also, methods and devices for using the ablated islets are disclosed, including to deliver chromophores, filler, drugs and other substances to the tissue volume. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20090248004 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF SOFT TISSUE - Methods and systems for treatment of tissue (e.g., the dermal-hypodermal region) with one or more wavelength are disclosed. Electromagnetic radiation devices and methods for lypolysis and/or coagulation of blood and/or treatment of water and/or treatment of skin are disclosed. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20100286673 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TREATMENT OF TISSUE - Devices and methods of treatment of tissue, such as skin tissue, with electromagnetic radiation (EMR) are disclosed that employ local deformation of tissue in small areas. Devices and methods employing local deformation are used to produce fractional lattices of EMR-treated islets in tissue for application including hair growth management. | 11-11-2010 |
