Embodiment Construction

[0026] In one aspect, the present invention includes a microwave emitting or delivery device, referred to herein as an energy delivery device (EDD), that delivers energy in a controlled manner to the skin and / or its underlying layers. Uses of the device of the invention include the regeneration of skin, especially areas with collagen fibres. Typically, the degree of fiber bunching or cross-linking in these areas increases with age, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles and eventually noticeable fissures or fissures. In general, the devices and methods and energy delivery devices of the present invention are used in direct contact with the surface of the skin and the emitted energy affects the tissue below the surface of the skin, especially the underlying collagen fiber layer, such as the dermis or epidermis. Treatment of collagen fibers affects the crosslinks in the fibrous material, causing it to heal or regenerate. Healing or regenerating tissue will give the skin's surface an...

Abstract

The invention relates to a skin or tissue treatment device or energy delivery device and the associated tip device for contacting skin or tissue. The devices can be advantageously used to treat facial wrinkles, blemishes, or fine lines without damaging the surface of the skin. A number of systems or control systems can be incorporated into the devices to afford manual or automatic control of the energy delivered. In preferred embodiments, microwave range energy is used in the treatments.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of an invention patent application with an international filing date of September 10, 2007, a national application number of 200780039288.1, and an invention title of "Microwave Device for Percutaneous Therapy". [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Application No. 11 / 882,453, filed August 1, 2007, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 842,943, filed September 8, 2006, which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein be narrated. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to electronic devices and methods of using them to treat or affect tissue non-invasively. In particular, the device may be used to deliver effective amounts of energy, typically microwave energy, from the surface of the skin, such as the face, to the underlying layers of tissue in order to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, fissures and / or skin discoloration or markings. In other aspects, the present invention r...
