The present invention generally provides methods and devices that allow more efficient delivery of a stimulus, such as optical radiation, to the skin. In many embodiments, negative and / or positive pressure is applied to one or more skin regions in order to maintain a skin target under tension so as to redistribute blood volume between the skin target and other skin segments. In many cases, such tension can cause a depletion of the volumetric blood content in the skin target (that is, in the blood vessels beneath a surface of the skin target), thereby facilitating delivery of radiation to the skin target.

A method for reducing skin is disclosed, in which a plurality of incisions or removals are made to collectively form a patch of skin to be reduced, instead of making a single large treatment of the patch. Thus, scarring after healing is less noticeable. Preferably, the treated regions of skin are arranged such that a total area of all removed skin segments taken in a direction perpendicular to an axis of said patch changes gradually along said axis. The removed regions of skin are preferably navicular in shape, and the patches are preferably navicular in shape in the event an elongated incision is made. The removal of skin regions can be realized by proper treatment methods such as incisions and laser treatment.

A glabrous leaf paper mulberry white skin pulping method is to immerse glabrous leaf paper mulberry white skin segments (30-50mm) into water for 30 to 60 minutes under the condition of a liquid ratio of 1:6 to 8 and temperature of 60 DEG C. Untwining the glabrous leaf paper mulberry white skin segments into a fiber bundle, then adding cold water according to a liquid ratio of 1:15 to 25 and leading the temperature to descend to 28 to 30 DEG C. Then a fiber bundle is sent to a reaction bin, accessed to anaerobic bacillus (inoculation amount is 3 percent) and reacted for 42 to 48 hours under the temperature of 28 to 32 DEG C. The biodegradation reaction is stopped when reaching a fiber liberation point, after treatment, the subsequent bleaching operation is carried on. Adding nutrient salt into the reaction materials 24 hours later after inoculation (urea 1.5 percent, K2HPO4H2O 1 percent). The invention overcomes defects of large consumption of chemicals, high temperature and high pressure and high pollution load existing in pulping technology by chemical method in the prior art; also, the invention overcomes defects that in the prior art long treatment cycle is needed caused by using biotechnology on raw material treatment, and low hardness and fiber liberation point can not be realized.

The present invention provides a fuselage structure (1; 1′) of an aircraft comprising an annular skin segment (2; 2′) which has a cross-sectional opening (3; 3′), a pressure cap (4; 4′) for a pressure-tight closure of the cross-sectional opening (3; 3′), and a plurality of tension struts (7, 8, 9; 7′, 8′, 9′) which in each case connect the pressure cap (4; 4′) to the annular skin segment (2; 2′) and absorb loads acting on the pressure cap (4; 4′), as tensile loads. This advantageously means that the tension struts (7, 8, 9; 7′, 8′, 9′) do not have to absorb substantially any bending moments. Consequently, the tension struts can be produced with a relatively small cross section, which entails a reduction in weight. Furthermore, it is possible to produce and mount tension struts (7, 8, 9; 7′, 8′, 9′) of this type in a simple manner.
