A method and apparatus for fractional treatment of skin by irradiating the skin with electromagnetic energy is disclosed. Sources of the electromagnetic energy can include radio frequency (RF) generators, lasers, and flashlamps. The apparatus includes at least one sensor configured to detect a positional parameter, a skin characteristic, a skin response, or combinations thereof. The sensor provides feedback to a controller. The controller controls the treatment parameters, including the treatment density. By sensing the positional parameter, skin characteristic and / or skin response to a treatment, the controller automatically adjusts treatment density in real-time in response to the sensed positional parameter, skin characteristic and / or skin response.

Microprojection members (10) having a reservoir containing an antigenic agent and methods of using such members to vaccinate mammals (e.g., humans) are disclosed. The microprojection members are used to transdermally deliver an antigenic agent (e.g., a vaccine antigen) with substantially reduced skin reactions. This is achieved by delivering an induction amount and thereafter delivering one or more subsequent booster amounts. The induction amount is relatively larger than the booster amount. This technology has broad applicability for a wide variety of therapeutic vaccines to improve efficacy and convenience of use.

The present application is directed to various compositions to treat the itching and conditions that result from contracting poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac, as well as other plant and substances that contain substances that lead to a skin reaction but that upon removal alleviate the symptoms of the condition.
