| 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 |
| 20100036295 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FRACTIONAL DEFORMATION AND TREATMENT OF CUTANEOUS AND SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE - Devices and methods of treatment of tissue, such as skin tissue and subcutaneous tissue, with thermal control elements are disclosed. Some disclosed devices and methods employ local deformation of tissue in small areas. Devices and methods employing local deformation are used to produce fractional thermal treatments. Some devices and methods are external to a subject's skin others are beneath the subject's skin in the subcutaneous tissue. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100298744 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF TREATING TISSUE WITH ULTRASOUND ENERGY - Disclosed herein are method(s) and device(s) capable of generating a small lesion as deep as a few millimeters beneath the skin's surface and several cubic millimeters in volume in orders of magnitude less time, namely, tens of milliseconds. More specifically, in one exemplary embodiment, a method of treating tissue (e.g., skin) is provided which includes generating one or more ultrasound pulses with each pulse having a pulse width shorter than a thermal relaxation time of a tissue treatment volume, and applying one or more of said ultrasound pulses to at least one portion of the tissue treatment volume to generate one or more treatment areas in a region. Methods of treating tissue can include effecting a therapeutic treatment in said region of the tissue, and/or effecting a cosmetic treatment in said target region. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110046523 | METHOD FOR IMPROVEMENT OF CELLULITE APPEARANCE - A method and apparatus are provided for treating connective tissue. The method and apparatus includes elongating connective tissue including septa and/or fascia to achieve a lasting improvement (e.g., a long term, durable and/or substantially irreversible treatment of the connective tissue) to improve the appearance of cellulite. | 02-24-2011 |
