The present invention relates to a high frequency liposuction device which is easy and reduces the pain of a patient during a procedure.

Liposuction is a rapidly growing field of plastic surgery that removes excess fat deposits in the human body. According to this liposuction, there is an advantage that can easily remove the fat of the area difficult to remove by exercise or diet, etc. as needed. In addition, methods such as exercise or diet only reduce the size of fat cells, it is difficult to suppress the thickening of the fat layer in the future, while liposuction has the advantage that this problem is much reduced because it reduces the number of fat cells.

Such liposuction usually involves inserting a cannula having a thin pipe into the fat layer and moving it back and forth to separate and destroy fat cells to inhale and remove fat. In order to reduce the hassle of moving the cannula back and forth during the liposuction procedure, and to make liposuction easier, various methods such as a vibrating liposuction apparatus for sucking fat while vibrating the cannula back and forth have been developed.

However, the liposuction device according to the prior art still has a problem such that the user's force is relatively large when the cannula is moved, and thus the operation is difficult.

Therefore, the present invention has been invented to solve the problems of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to generate a deep heat inside the human body using a high-frequency power source to dissolve or gently change the fat layer of the area to be inhaled easily fat It is to provide a high frequency liposuction apparatus that can be inhaled.

In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a high frequency liposuction apparatus in which the force required by the user during the procedure is reduced and the operation is easy, and the pain of the patient is reduced during the procedure.

The present invention includes a cannula in which at least one suction hole is formed at one end of the hollow pipe to be inserted into the skin of the human body so as to suck fat; And it provides a liposuction electrode unit characterized in that the high-frequency power is applied to the cannula so that the suction hole is not closed.

In this case, the insulating member may be formed to surround the outer circumferential surface of all parts except for one side end portion in which the suction hole is formed among the portions inserted into the human body of the cannula.

In general, high-frequency medical devices apply high-frequency power to the human body to inject electrical energy into bioenergy, and promote fat metabolism and muscle movement through deep heat generated by using such bioenergy to treat obesity, strengthen muscles, Medical device used for skin care, hair promotion or pain relief. Since the high frequency voltage has a very short vibration width when it is energized by human tissue, almost no ion movement occurs and no electrochemical reaction or electrolysis occurs. When the high frequency power is energized in the human body, heat is generated in the tissues, and this is called deep heat. The reason for the deep heat is generated whenever the direction of the power is changed when high frequency electric energy is applied. This is because they vibrate and rub against each other to generate biothermal heat by rotational movement, twisting and collision movement. Therefore, high frequency voltage can heat a specific part of the body tissue without causing discomfort or muscle contraction in the human body, and the deep heat generated increases the temperature of the tissue to enhance cell function and increase blood flow. Plays a role. As a result, the metabolism and muscle movement of the human body is promoted, and the effects of obesity treatment, muscle strengthening, skin care, hair promotion or pain relief can be obtained.

The high frequency liposuction apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is a device for easily inhaling fat by dissolving the fat layer to be inhaled by generating deep heat in the fat layer to be inhaled / removed using such a high frequency power source. As shown in FIG. 1, a liposuction electrode unit 210 having a high frequency generator 100, a cannula 211 for liposuction, and a counter plate 300 for energizing high frequency power to a human body include: It can also be configured to further comprise a suction means 400 for sucking fat through the cannula 211.

The high frequency generator 100 includes a power supply unit 110, an oscillator 120, an amplifier 130, a level control unit 140, and an output unit 150.

The power supply unit 110 supplies power required for each component of the high frequency generation unit 100, the oscillator 120 oscillates the high frequency power, and the amplifier 130 amplifies the high frequency power oscillated by the oscillator 120. It plays a role. The level adjuster 140 adjusts the intensity of the high frequency power, and the output unit 150 outputs the intensity-adjusted high frequency power to the electrode unit 210 and simultaneously outputs the reference power to the counter electrode 300. To perform. The high frequency power generated by the high frequency generator 100 is applied to the electrode unit 210, and the reference power is applied to the counter plate 300, so that the electrode unit 210 depends on the polarity of the high frequency power output to the electrode unit 210. Deep heat is generated between the electrode plate 300 and the counter electrode 300.

The liposuction electrode unit 210 includes a liposuction cannula 211 having an electrical / thermal conductor property in the form of a hollow thin pipe, and an insulating member 213 surrounding an outer circumferential surface in a portion of the cannula 211. It is composed.

The cannula 211 is inserted into a fat layer in the human skin to suck fat, and is formed in a hollow pipe shape so that at least one suction hole 212 is formed at one end thereof so that the fat is sucked through the suction hole 212. Is inhaled. At this time, the cannula 211 may be formed in such a way that one end is inserted into the human body is closed and the other end is opened as shown in Figure 3 for a smooth liposuction, otherwise both sides are to be configured to open It may be. In addition, although the suction holes 212 formed in the cannula 211 may be formed in plural so as to be arranged in a circumferential direction at one end of the cannula 211 as shown in FIG. A plurality may be formed to be arranged in a line along the length direction, and as long as at least one is formed, the arrangement state may be variously changed.

The cannula 211 is configured to receive high frequency power from the high frequency generator 100 by being electrically connected to the high frequency generator 100 and the cable 500 as shown in FIG. 1, and thus to the cannula 211. When the high frequency power is input, the high frequency power is transferred into the human body, and deep heat is generated at a portion around the cannula 211. Therefore, deep heat is generated in the area around the cannula 211 inserted into the human body, so that the fat layer around the cannula 211 is dissolved or changed to a weak viscosity, so that the fat is easily passed through the suction hole 212 of the cannula 211. Can be inhaled.

The insulating member 213 is formed to surround the outer circumferential surface of the cannula 211 in some section of the cannula 211. That is, the suction hole 212 formed in one side end of the cannula 211 is formed only in a partial section that does not overlap with the suction hole 212. In this case, the insulating member 213 may be formed to surround the outer circumferential surface of all parts except for one end portion in which the suction hole 212 is formed among the portions inserted into the human body of the cannula 211 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3. have. Therefore, high frequency power by the cannula 211 is directly transmitted to the human body in a region around the suction hole 212 where fat is sucked, and relatively high core heat is generated, and in a region surrounded by the insulating member 213, Low deep fever develops. Therefore, when the electrode unit 210 passes through the fat layer, the fat layer around the suction hole 212 is easily dissolved by the relatively high deep heat generated around the suction hole 212, and more easily sucked into the cannula 211. Can be. In addition, the electrode unit 210 is easily transported to the fat layer by the relatively high deep heat generated around the suction hole 212, so that the user can easily operate the electrode unit 210 with little force, and the patient is treated. Helps you feel smaller aftereffects and pain.

The insulating member 213 is to insulate the high frequency power input to the cannula 211 so as not to be directly transmitted to the human body as an insulating coating layer formed through a coating process on the outer circumferential surface of the cannula 211 according to an embodiment of the present invention. It may be configured, or may be configured by coupling a separate insulating pipe to the outer peripheral surface of the cannula 211. Through the insulating member 213, the deep heat generation can be more concentrated to the non-insulated portion, and the role of the electrode unit 210 can be more stably operated through the relatively weak deep heat generation in the insulated portion. Can be performed.

On the other hand, the high-frequency liposuction apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided with the counter electrode 300 in contact with the human body to be paired with the electrode unit 210. The counter plate 300 is a plate shape formed of a conductive material and is electrically connected through the high frequency generator 100 and the cable 500, and the high frequency power applied from the electrode unit 210 is energized through the inside of the human body. The other side of the body is in contact with the body. The counter plate 300 operates as a reference power source for the electrode unit 210. For example, when + power is applied through the electrode unit 210 in response to a high frequency voltage transmitted to the human body through the electrode unit 210, the counter electrode 300 operates as a negative terminal and the electrode unit 210. Through-when power is applied, the counter plate 300 operates as a + terminal. In this case, the shape of the counter plate 300 may be formed in a square plate shape as shown in FIG. 1, but this may be changed into various shapes, except that the counter plate 300 is non-insulated of the cannula 211. It is preferred to be formed wider than the portion, details of which will be described later.

According to this configuration, the high frequency liposuction apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention receives high frequency power from the high frequency generator 100 to the cannula 211 of the electrode unit 210, and the high frequency power is supplied to the electrode unit 210. By energizing the counterplate 300 in contact with the opposite side of the human body to be contacted, deep heat is generated in the human body so that the fat layer for inhalation is dissolved or changed more smoothly, and thus fat through the suction hole 212 of the cannula 211. This is a structure that can be sucked more easily. That is, the non-isolated portion of the cannula 211 of the electrode unit 210 according to an embodiment of the present invention operates as an application electrode for applying high frequency power to the body, and the counter plate 300 energizes the applied high frequency power. Since the non-insulated portion of the cannula 211 has a smaller area of contact with the body than the conduction plate 300, a high core heat is generated in the non-insulated portion of the cannula 211 and the cannula. Fat dissolved in the suction hole 212 of 211 is easily sucked.

On the other hand, such a high frequency suction device may be further provided with a separate suction means 400 for liposuction as described above, the suction means 400 is disposed in communication with the internal space of the cannula 211 cannula It is configured to suck the fat in the human body through the suction hole 212 of (211). For example, the suction means 400 is provided with a suction hose 410 to communicate with the interior space of the cannula 211, as shown in Figure 1, the inhaler 420 is provided at one end of the suction hose 410 It may be configured in a manner provided. The inhaler 420 is a device capable of sucking fat in general, and may be configured as a suction pump (not shown), a storage container (not shown), etc., which sucks a fluid using pressure. Since the configuration is generally known, details thereof will be omitted.

Therefore, the high frequency liposuction apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention is configured such that the suction means 400 is in communication with the internal space of the cannula 211, thereby forcing fat from the cannula 211 through the suction means 400. It is configured to suck through the suction hole 212 of the cannula 211, the fat in the human body can be sucked more smoothly. At this time, it is preferable that the handle unit 220 is formed in the electrode unit 210 to be gripped by the user for the procedure, as shown in Figure 1 and 3, the suction means on one side of the handle 220 The suction hose 410 of the 400 may be connected to be in communication with the internal space of the cannula 211. However, the connection method of the suction means 400 and the cannula 211 may be configured to be directly connected, it may be variously changed, such as may be detachably coupled through a separate connection means.

Meanwhile, the shapes of the liposuction electrode unit 210 according to different embodiments are shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, respectively, and the electrode unit 210 is illustrated in FIG. 3A. As configured in the form of a straight pipe may be configured to be inserted obliquely in the human body. In this configuration, since the electrode unit 210 may not move smoothly when the electrode unit 210 moves horizontally in the human body horizontally for liposuction, it may be difficult to operate the electrode unit 210 as shown in FIG. It may be configured in a bent form. As such, when the electrode unit 210 is configured in a bent form, the electrode unit 210 may be horizontally disposed in the human body so that linear movement may be smoothly performed horizontally in the human body. Therefore, although it may be preferable that the electrode unit 210 is configured in a bent form as shown in FIG. 3B, it may be changed into various forms according to a patient's condition or a user's operation needs.

Next, look at the operating state of the high frequency liposuction apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention in more detail.

As shown in FIG. 4, the electrode unit 210 is disposed only in a portion of the cannula 211, so that the insulating section L2 and the non-insulating section are insulated through the insulating member 213. The non-insulated section L1 may be formed only at one end of the cannula 211 in which the suction hole 212 is formed. Therefore, when the high frequency power is applied to the electrode unit 210 while the electrode unit 210 is inserted into the human body and the counter plate 300 is in contact with a part of the human body, the high frequency voltage corresponds to the electrode unit 210. Through the counterplate 300 is energized into the human body, thereby causing deep heat inside the human body.

At this time, since the non-isolated section L1 of the electrode unit 210 has a relatively small area and directly energizes a high frequency power source into the human body, deep heat generated around the non-isolated section L1 is concentrated and relatively high. Deep heat is generated in the non-isolated section (L1). That is, as shown by a dotted line in FIG. 4, deep heat occurs in the region P between the entire area of the electrode plate 300 and the non-insulating section L1 of the electrode unit 210. ) Area is smaller than the area of the counter electrode 300, the density of the high frequency power supply is increased around the non-insulated section (L1), thereby causing a high core heat. Therefore, since the deep core heat is generated at one end of the cannula 211 in which the suction hole 212 is formed, the fat layer is more smoothly dissolved or softly changed and can be easily sucked through the suction hole 212.

On the other hand, in the insulation section (L2), the high-frequency power is minutely energized inside the human body through the insulation member 213, and the core heat is generated. In the insulation section (L2), the minute core heat is transferred to the cannula 211. Thus, heat is generated in the inner space of the cannula 211. Therefore, since the fat sucked through the suction hole 212 in the non-insulated section L1 passes through the insulating section L2, heat is generated in the inner space of the cannula 211 of the insulating section L2. The fat may be smoothly transferred to the suction means 400 without solidifying in the insulation section L2. That is, since the electrode unit 210 according to an embodiment of the present invention is divided into a relatively small non-insulating section L1 and a relatively large insulating section L2, high core heat is generated in the non-insulating section L1. The liposuction is easy, and the deep core heat is generated in the insulation section (L2) so that the sucked fat is smoothly transferred without being solidified and dissolved. In addition, the heat generation of the space inside the cannula 211 in the insulation section L2 may be additionally caused by the minute self heat generation by the current flow of the high frequency voltage in the cannula 211 in addition to being transmitted by the minute deep heat. There will be.

In addition, a separate temperature sensor 600 may be mounted in the non-insulating section L1 of the electrode unit 210 as shown in FIG. 4, and a cannula 211 adjacent to a portion where the suction hole 212 is formed. ) May be mounted on the outer circumferential surface. The temperature sensor 600 detects the temperature around the suction hole 212 of the non-insulated section L1, and changes the intensity of the high frequency power source of the high frequency generator 100 according to the detected temperature, and heats the core in an appropriate state. Can be adjusted to occur.

The foregoing description is merely illustrative of the technical idea of the present invention, and various changes and modifications may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the essential characteristics of the present invention.
