Description

Portable Medical Combined Stimulator

The present invention relates to a medical combination stimulator, and more particularly, to a portable medical combination stimulator that can be conveniently used to replace the device for the treatment of skin irritation and the treatment of rhinitis and pain in the nose.

Skin treatment using light emitting diodes (LEDs) is a treatment that restores the aging or damaged skin of the face and body to its original state of intact, and is applied to human skin based on the fact that LED light affects plant growth in NASA. It has been used to research and develop impacts and for muscle regeneration and wound healing in NASA and Naval Special Forces.

In addition, it helps the production of collagen and elastin by the action of red light, green light, yellow light, and blue light having a specific wavelength among the wavelengths of light transmitted through the high-intensity LED, and improves the skin trouble by controlling the amount of melanin pigment. It can help with the effects, wrinkle improvement, acne, freckles, dark skin tone treatment, and skin moisturizing.

Unlike direct treatment such as skin peeling, the treatment using LED light naturally activates the cells to produce new collagen and elastin because LED light acts on the skin cells naturally, and by controlling the amount of melanin pigment, skin aging or skin Skin diseases such as damage can be treated. (See the prior art document below.)

On the other hand, a technique for using light emitted from the LED lamp for the treatment of rhinitis or internal pain of the nose has been developed. Conventionally, treatment with temperature and humidity, or treatment with drugs is mainly used, but by treating the LED lamps in parallel, it is possible to more effectively treat diseases related to the nose.

By the way, the conventional treatment device using the LED light is expensive equipment, such as skin or nose, there is a problem that the equipment is manufactured differently depending on the treatment target, so that the general public can not easily use the home.
