Abstract

Embodiments of skin cosmetic treatment and / or imaging systems and methods adapted to alter the placement and location of multiple (e.g., two or more) cosmetic treatment zones in tissue from an ultrasound beam from a transducer, simultaneous multi-focal treatment at multiple depths, and multi-focal treatment at multiple depths. And / or dithering the ultrasound beam from the transducer to alter the placement and location of the plurality of cosmetic treatment zones in the tissue. The system may include a cane, a removable transducer module, and a control module. In some embodiments, the cosmetic treatment system may be used in a variety of cosmetic procedures.

Description

[0001] incorporated by reference [0002] U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 874,374, filed July 15, 2019, is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes. technical field [0003] Several embodiments of the invention relate to energy-based non-invasive treatments for multiple dimensions (e.g., two or more depths, heights, widths, spacings, etc.) , orientation, placement) to obtain aesthetic and / or cosmetic enhancement effects on the skin and / or skin-near tissues of the human face, head, neck and / or body. In particular, several embodiments relate to measuring skin elasticity using constructive shear wave imaging produced by delivering focused energy into multiple dimensions simultaneously or near simultaneously. Background technique [0004] Some cosmetic procedures involve invasive procedures that may require invasive surgery. Not only do patients endure weeks of recovery time, but they often undergo dangerous anesthesia procedures. Non-invas...
