20090192503 | DEVICE, APPARATUS, AND METHOD OF ADIPOSE TISSUE TREATMENT - An improved procedure for performing liposuction is obtained by utilizing a needle that includes a laser source conductor with one end of the needle being configured for insertion into a target adipose skin volume and the other end being coupled to a laser source. The needle may include one or more channels for extracting the treated adipose area. A vacuum source can be used in the extraction of the treated adipose. Further, the first end of the needle may include a cap or end-piece that reduces the build up of carbon deposits. A temperature sensor may be used as input to adjust the laser power and prevent over exposure. | 07-30-2009 |
20100210993 | SKIN TREATMENT APPARATUS FOR PERSONAL USE AND METHOD FOR USING SAME - An apparatus for personal skin treatment includes an RF generator and an applicator with at least a pair of electrodes mounted on the distal end of the applicator. The electrodes are configured for applying an RF voltage to a subject skin. The RF voltage generator supplies the electrodes with the RF voltage. The applicator includes a source of illumination illuminating the treated skin segment. | 08-19-2010 |
20100331832 | METHOD FOR TREATING SKIN - Techniques for the treatment of skin segments by application of optical radiation are limited due to dark skin pigmentation. The application of a whitening substance is utilized to temporarily lighten a targeted skin segment. In the temporarily lightened state, optical radiation for skin treatment is applied in a more effective manner. | 12-30-2010 |

20120022512 | DEVICE, APPARATUS, AND METHOD OF ADIPOSE TISSUE TREATMENT - A method and apparatus for adipose tissue treatment whereby two types of electromagnetic radiation are applied to the volume of tissue to be treated, One type of the electromagnetic radiations being RF and the second type of electromagnetic radiation being visible or infrared radiation. | 01-26-2012 |
20120123397 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LIPOSUCTION - A controller, an external electrode and a probe to be inserted into a tissue volume. One end of the probe is terminated by one or more electrodes and the other end is connected to a load cell. The electrode end of the probe is inserted into a volume of adipose tissue to be treated. Intermittently different and low power RF energy is applied between the external electrode and the electrodes of the probe. Monitoring of the impedance between the external electrode and the probe electrodes enables probe guidance. Monitoring of the impedance between the probe electrodes helps characterize the aggregate state of the treated tissue volume and treatment end-point. | 05-17-2012 |
