Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the amount of compound delivered across the epithelial cell layer is neither accurately known nor reliable and / or controllable
Furthermore, ablation of the target inevitably generates debris that may contaminate the device and / or the treated object

Embodiment Construction

[0041] It is worth noting that in the figures, the same features can be identified by the same reference numerals. It is further noted that the figures are schematic and not necessarily to scale, and details not necessary for an understanding of the invention may have been omitted. "Up", "downward", "below", "above" and similar terms relate to embodiments oriented in the figures. Furthermore, elements that are at least substantially the same, or that perform at least substantially the same function, are represented by the same numerals increased by 100, 200, etc. for the different illustrated embodiments.

[0042] figure 1 A system 1 is shown for treating an epithelial tissue layer 3 , here a portion of skin tissue with a surface 5 . The system comprises a reservoir 7 containing a quantity of flowable medium. The reservoir 7 is generally cup-shaped with an open bottom and is arranged so that the medium can contact the surface 5 of the epithelial tissue layer 3 . The system...

Abstract

A system (101) for treatment of an epithelial tissue layer (3) is provided. The system comprises a reservoir (107), for containing an amount of a flowable medium, arranged to enable the medium, when contained in the reservoir, to be in contact with a surface (5) of the epithelial tissue layer, a light source (109) for generating a laser beam (11) during at least a predetermined pulse time, and an optical system for focusing the laser beam into a focal spot (15), and for positioning the focal spot in a target position. The target position of the focal spot is within the reservoir and within the medium, when contained in the reservoir, and the dimension of the focal spot and the power of the generated laser beam are such that, in the focal spot, the laser beam has a power density, which is above the characteristic threshold value for the medium, above which, for the predetermined pulse time, a laser induced optical breakdown event occurs in the medium. A method for treatment of an epithelial tissue layer is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to epithelial tissue treatment, in particular skin treatment. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to improved delivery of topical formulations into the skin, improved skin rejuvenation induction and / or improved skin healing. Background technique [0002] Mammalian epithelial tissue, especially the epidermis, forms a barrier between the mammalian body and the outside world. Skin that looks healthy and youthful is commonly sought after and there is a continuing need for improvements in the field of skin care and / or skin rejuvenation for both medical and cosmetic purposes. Presently provided systems and methods address these needs. [0003] Human skin tissue includes a dermis and an epidermis, with the stratum corneum being the outermost layer of the epidermis. Suitable techniques for treating epithelial tissue may include application of one or more topical formulations and, for certain treatments, topical f...
