Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional cosmetic procedure devices risk causing burns due to insufficient skin suction, leading to a narrow contact area between the electrode and the skin, especially when used by unskilled individuals.
Innovation Solution
A method for controlling a cosmetic procedure device that includes detecting the height of suctioned skin and determining whether to apply high frequency based on this height, ensuring adequate contact area before energizing the electrode.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If high frequency is applied when skin suction is insufficient, then the procedure can be performed, but the contact area between electrode and skin becomes narrow causing burn risk
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs skin height detection before applying high frequency energy. The controller measures the height of suctioned skin using a sensor, and only enables high frequency application when the skin height exceeds a predetermined threshold, ensuring adequate contact area before energy delivery
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors skin height during the procedure and provides real-time feedback to the controller. Based on this feedback, the controller dynamically controls the high frequency output, preventing application when skin contact is insufficient and ensuring safety while maintaining procedure effectiveness
2Object-affected harmful factors
If skin suction pressure is increased to ensure adequate contact area, then burn risk is reduced, but device complexity and user操作 difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects skin height and controls high frequency output without requiring user judgment or adjustment. The sensor and controller work together to self-regulate the procedure parameters, eliminating the need for users to manually control suction pressure or estimate contact area
Solution Approach 2:
The system replaces manual mechanical control of suction and high frequency with an automated sensing and control system. The skin height sensor and controller substitute for user skill and judgment, objectively measuring and responding to skin contact conditions
