Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an iontophoresis apparatus for mask pack,

The present invention relates to an iontophoresis method, and more particularly, to an iontophoresis method using an iontophoresis device for a mask pack which injects a drug in a mask pack into the skin.

Physical method Iontophoresis, which is a permeation enhancing method, promotes transdermal absorption of charged drugs and neutral drugs by electrical repulsion and electroosmotic action by applying a physiologically acceptable small current to the skin Depending on the type of drug, 5 ~ 50 times as much drug can be delivered than simple diffusion method like patch agent. Therefore, the dosage can be easily adjusted by adjusting the current intensity and current application time by a simple patch, and it is very convenient that the patient can easily turn on / off the administration of the drug without the help of specialized medical personnel .

That is, the principle of iontophoresis is based on the principle that a molecule occupying a positive charge in an electric field generated between a positive electrode and a negative electrode by energization flows out of the positive electrode to a negative electrode and a negative electrode moves from the negative electrode to the positive electrode Thereby promoting skin barrier permeation of drug molecules.

'Iontophoresis' refers to the phenomenon in which molecules or ions with an ion are moved from the anode to the cathode or vice versa depending on the flow of current. Especially, it is applied to the skin or mucosa for therapeutic purposes .

In the 1970s, methods for delivering drugs to skin by applying iontophoresis have been introduced, and methods for skin delivery of ionic drugs, including proteins and peptide drugs, have become known. This iontophoresis provides the driving force that ionized drug penetrates into the skin according to the flow of current.

Iontophoresis refers to a method of causing a microcurrent to flow through the skin so that a drug or an effective ingredient having a charge is penetrated into the skin by an electric repulsive force.

There is also a method of increasing the absorption of substances in the skin by using an absorption enhancer or prodrug to change the physicochemical properties of the drug or skin to promote drug penetration, It is a much less aggressive drug administration method than injecting, while forcing the environment to increase drug penetration much more actively than conventional methods.

In particular, it is known that the use of iontophoresis to improve skin irritation by absorbing vitamin C, which is a skin whitening effect substance, is now used in dermatology clinics and has a considerable effect on the treatment of spots.

The skin is made up of epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous fat tissue. When the cosmetic is applied to the skin, the epidermis of the upper layer of the skin recognizes cosmetics as toxins and hinders absorption of cosmetics due to molecular size, biologic characteristics and biochemical phenomena. The amount of cosmetics that is substantially absorbed into the skin is very small.

Therefore, an iontophoresis method has been developed to increase the absorption of cosmetics and drugs in the skin.

The iontophoresis method refers to a method in which a microcurrent is caused to flow through the skin to allow the effective ingredient contained in a drug or cosmetic having a charge to penetrate into the skin by an electric repulsive force. These iontophoresis methods can be used to improve the stamina by absorbing vitamin C, which is a skin whitening effect substance, on the skin, or to suppress the generation of wrinkles by absorbing the skin antioxidant substance to the skin, and the effect is also known to be considerable have.

In addition, although the term used in the present invention is selected as a general term that is widely used at present, there are some terms selected arbitrarily by the applicant in a specific case. In this case, since the meaning is described in detail in the description of the relevant invention, It is to be understood that the present invention should be grasped as a meaning of a term that is not a name of the present invention. Further, in describing the embodiments, descriptions of technical contents which are well known in the technical field to which the present invention belongs and which are not directly related to the present invention will be omitted. This is for the sake of clarity of the present invention without omitting the unnecessary explanation.

1 is a view schematically showing a configuration of an embodiment of an iontophoresis apparatus for a mask pack according to the present invention.

1, the iontophoresis apparatus for a mask pack according to the present invention includes a power supply unit 110 for supplying driving power and an electrode unit 200 connected to the power supply unit 110, The electrode unit 200 includes a ground electrode 220 and an active electrode 210. The electrode unit 200 is connected to the power supply unit 110. The electrode unit 200 includes an operation mode And a control unit 120 for controlling the power supply unit 110 with a preset polarity, voltage, and energization time of the selected mode selected from the input unit 130 and the input unit 130 for selecting one of a plurality of selection modes . A display unit 140 for displaying a plurality of selection modes according to the selection of the input unit 130 and an audio output unit 150 for outputting a selection mode displayed on the display unit 140 or an abnormality of the electrode unit 200 The controller 120 may further include a display unit 140 and an audio output unit 150. The control unit 120 may control the power supply unit 110 to display the selected polarity, Or controls the operations of the display unit 140 and the audio output unit 150. [

Meanwhile, the control unit 120 is connected to the power supply unit 110 to variably control the polarity of the active electrode 210.

The input unit 130 of FIG. 1 is provided for inputting information on a driving method (for example, an operating mode) desired by the user, and the display unit 140 displays information on the driving state of the iontophoresis device for the mask pack And the audio output unit 150 outputs a guidance voice, a notification, or a warning sound. The power supply unit 110, the control unit 120, the input unit 130, the display unit 140, and the audio output unit 150 may be formed as one body 100.

The electrode unit 200 is connected to the main body 100 and the electrode unit 200 is composed of a ground electrode 220 connected to the main body 100 through a cable and active electrodes 210 and 210a and 210b. The output terminal of the conventional iontophoresis is divided into positive electrode (+) and negative electrode (-). When the positive electrode is activated, the negative electrode is grounded. If the negative electrode is activated, the positive electrode is grounded. In other words, conventionally, one of them was used as a ground terminal and the other active terminal was controlled to control a positive current or a negative current by an iontophoresis controller. However, in the present invention, the ground terminal of the output terminal is applied to the back surface of the main body, and the output terminal is divided into one or more and used as the active electrode.

The ionic materials in the mask pack penetrate into the skin due to interaction with the active electrode 210. For this purpose, the active electrode 210 may be an electrode having a polarity of '+' And has a polarity of any one of the electrodes having a polarity of '-'. In order to achieve this, the controller 120 is configured to control the direction of the current applied from the power supply unit 110 so as to flow the '+' electrode or the '-' current, so that the '+' polarity or the ' .

In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the polarity of the active electrode 210 is set to repeat between the '+' polarity and the '-' polarity according to a predetermined period. The polarity of the polarity of the active electrode 210 is changed periodically so as to inject various drugs deep into the skin regardless of the drug characteristics in the mask pack.

That is, by changing the polarity of the output according to the output of the iontophoresis device, the drug characteristic can be injected deep into the skin dermis irrespective of whether the drug has - ion or + ion, '+' Current can inject the cation component deep into the dermis by using the osmotic phenomenon of the skin through the current flow and the repulsion of the electric charge.

When acting as a '-' polarity in the active electrode, the active electrode is activated with '-' ions, and the anion component is injected into the skin in large amounts by repulsion of charge, and the cation is stabilized. On the contrary, when the active electrode functions as a '+' polarity, the active electrode is activated as a '+' ion and a cation component is activated by repulsion of a '+' ion charge so that a large amount of cation component is injected deep into the skin, '+' Charge and stabilized.

Depending on the characteristics of the component, there is a tendency to be influenced by the charge transfer. On the other hand, there is a component which is strongly influenced by the charge repulsion. In the present embodiment, basically, the polarity is crossed for each constant time so that all the components can be sufficiently injected into the dermis regardless of the characteristics of the components.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, there is an advantage that any drug is present in the mask pack, that is, regardless of whether the drug has any ionic property, all the drugs can be uniformly injected. It is not necessary to consider the consistency of the pack, and the iontophoresis device can be generally used for various kinds of mask packs distributed on the market.

In addition, by alternately changing the polarity of the active electrode 210 to positive or negative, it is possible to prevent an image, trembling, and erythema, which are generated on the negative electrode side, from being generated.

The period in which the polarity of the active electrode 210 is changed can be preset in the control unit 120 and can be configured to be adjustable in 10 minutes. If the polarity changing period in which the polarity of the active electrode 210 is changed from 'positive-negative-positive' to 'negative-positive-negative' is set to 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or 30 minutes, The power supply unit 110 is controlled so that the positive current flows alternately for 5 minutes in the next cycle and the negative current alternately flows for the next 5 minutes.

As a result of the test using the iontophoresis device, the effect of the iontophoresis is proportional to the effect of the energization time, but the change of the amount of the iontophoresis is large even if the time is continuously increased after 5-10 minutes The results were not obtained. Therefore, it is possible to maximize the iontophoresis effect when the polarity is changed after the point at which the amount of charge is maximized. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, by setting the charging time at a specific polarity to 5 minutes or 10 minutes, And the change period is set to 10 minutes or 20 minutes so as to maximize the iontophoresis effect.

The polarity change period of the active electrode 210 may be configured to be input by the user through the input unit 10 and may be displayed through the display unit 140. The input unit 130 may select the polarity change period, The number of changes can also be entered.

The control unit 120 stores and controls the polarity change, the current intensity, and the energization time with the set value input from the input unit 130, and the input unit 130 can select any one of two or more polarity change cycles. The input unit 130 may be configured to select the number of times of polarity change so that the power supply unit 110 may change the polarity of the active electrode 210 according to the selected number of polarity changes. 120).

In addition, the input unit 130 may be configured to allow the user to select the intensity of the current applied to the electrode unit 200, and to adjust the intensity of the current to the upper, middle, and lower.

In addition, the input unit 130 may be configured to allow the user to select the energization time of the current applied to the electrode unit 200, and the energization time may be selected based on 10-30 minutes.

Also, the input unit 130 may be configured to be able to select a mode in which the polarity change period, the intensity of the current, and the energization time (operation time) are expressed by numbers or letters defined as preset values.

The electrode unit 200 is divided into an active electrode 210 and a ground electrode 220 and is configured to have one or more or preferably two active electrodes. In FIG. 1, two active electrodes 210 and And one ground electrode 220 is shown.

The ground electrode 220 is connected to the power source unit 110 of the main body 100 by a cable, and is preferably configured to be detachable from the main body 100. The ground electrode 220 functions as a ground by being attached to the skin of the user's body such as the neck or shoulder.

The end of the ground electrode 220 may be formed in a structure including a general gel type medical electrode pad, and the electrode pad may be configured to be replaceable.

The size of the pad can be manufactured in consideration of the size of the main body, the intensity of the electric current to be energized, and the like. Preferably, a 40-50 mm circular pad can be used.

The active electrode 210 is connected by a cable from the power source 110 of the main body 100 and the end of the active electrode 210 is attached with an electrode pad so that the electrode pad on the active electrode 210 contacts the mask pack . The active electrode 210 is changed in a predetermined period of polarity, and one or more active electrodes 210 are brought into contact with the mask pack so that the ionic materials in the mask pack penetrate into the skin.

A positive current or a negative current is simultaneously transmitted through the output cable of the power supply unit 110. The change of the polarity can be changed by changing the polarity between the ground electrode 220 and the active electrode 220.

In the iontophoresis apparatus for a mask pack according to the present invention, when one or more active electrodes 210 are employed and a plurality of electrodes are used for one mask pack, an interference current is generated between pairs of active electrodes connected to the respective output terminals The iontophoresis effect can be further improved.

In addition, the flow of current is divided into more than one, and the area where the current flows is widened, which can disperse the risk of skin burn, trembling, and erythema.

In the present invention, the output current of the output stage output circuit of the main body 100 is returned to the input circuit so as to have a constant output value (constant current). If there is a difference between the output stage of the output circuit and the input stage current, So as to obtain a constant output value.

It is desirable to configure the iontophoresis to vary the output value according to the state of the battery or the part and the state of the user.

In this configuration example, a correction circuit using a feedback circuit can be added.

When using iontophoresis in a mask pack, it is very important to maintain a constant output value because a constant current flows through a sensitive face, and the applied current is very sensitive to the characteristics of the user. Therefore, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the constant current is configured to flow by correcting the current value of the output terminal so that the constant current can be energized while excluding the battery state, the component deviation, and the user's characteristics.

In addition, the most important factor of iontophoresis is the intensity of current and the time of energization, and the dose of drug is proportional to the output value of current.

Preferably, the change of the output value of the current is specified to be less than + -5% of the specified output value. In addition, it is preferable to add a notification function to check the resistance value of the current flowing between the ground electrode 220 and the active electrode 210 and notify it when the resistance value becomes less than a predetermined resistance value.

For example, it is possible to store the output resistance value of each output step in the device and to give a warning if a resistance value occurs below the value. Through this, it is possible to recognize the state of separation of the electrode, the timing of replacing the pad, and the like. That is, when the output resistance value is less than a certain level, the electrodes can be viewed as being completely in close contact with the skin, so that the electrode separation warning can be sent through the display unit 140. In addition, since the detachment state of such electrodes is often caused by deterioration of the adhesion performance of pads, such a notification function can be implemented as a warning function for guiding pad replacement.

Meanwhile, in the iontophoresis device for a mask pack according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in addition to a gel type electrode pad having adhesion, a button-type electrode structure is employed to improve adhesion with a mask pack and prevent skin damage can do.

Such a button electrode structure is preferably applied to the active electrode 210 to be in contact with the mask pack.

Figs. 2 and 3 show examples of such a button electrode structure.

2, the button-type electrode casting according to this embodiment is formed on one end of an output cable connected to the power supply unit 110, and includes an electrode body 212 having a groove 212 formed on the contact portion with the mask pack, And a fixing body 214 including a protrusion 215 which can be engaged with and fixed to a groove 212 formed in the electrode body 211. [

The electrode body 211 and the fixing body 214 are disposed on both sides of the mask pack 210 by forming the active electrode 210 in a button-like structure in which the protrusion 215 and the groove 212 are detachable, So that the active electrode 210 can be fixed on the mask pack.

The grooves 212 and the protrusions 215 may be selectively formed on the electrode body 211 and the fixed body 214. Unlike the electrode body 211 shown in FIG. 2, the protrusions are formed on the electrode body 211, 214 may be formed with grooves.

FIG. 3 illustrates a button-type electrode structure according to another embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 3, an electrode body 211 and a fixing body 214 are integrally formed by a connecting line 216. 3, an electrode handle 213 is formed at a position where the electrode body 211 is connected to the cable, and a connection line 216 connected to the fixing body 214 is fixed on the electrode handle 213.

The fixing body 214 and the electrode body 211 can be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance so that the electrode body 211 and the fixed body 214 can be easily connected to each other without difficulty, (Not shown).

Such a button-type electrode structure can ensure excellent bonding and stability compared with a gel-type electrode structure, and when the electrode structure is wrapped with a non-conductive plastic material, the current is directly transmitted to the face skin And the risk of skin damage can be reduced.

Alternatively, the structure may be applied by permanent magnet and magnetic force using a magnetic body instead of the above-described button structure. In other words, instead of the grooves 212 of the electrode body 211, the electrode body may be formed by wrapping the permanent magnet with plastic, while a magnetic body such as a thin steel plate may be wrapped with plastic instead of the protrusion 215 of the fixed body, Can be used. Further, in the case of plastic, hard and soft plastic can be used. It is preferable to use hard plastic which can be divided according to hardness and relatively less damage to human skin. In the case of using such a magnetic force, the fixing body can be attached on the electrode body without the above-mentioned button structure.

4 and 5 show that the electrode structure shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3 is actually fastened to the mask pack. FIG. 4 shows an example of application to a single mask pack covering the entire face, This is an application example for a divided mask pack covering a part (e.g. around the eyes).

4, two or more active electrodes 210a and 210b (two active electrodes in FIG. 5, for example) are disposed at mutually spaced positions in the mask pack 300 in the case of the single mask pack 300, The active electrodes 210a and 210b are fixed by tightening the electrode body 211 of the electrode unit 200 and the groove 212 and the protrusion 215 of the fixed body 214 together. At this time, a ground electrode (not shown) is attached to another part of the body (for example, the shoulder, etc.).

5 shows an example of the divided mask pack 400. In the case of the divided mask pack 400, the electrode pack 200 is divided into the mask packs 400 as shown in FIG. 5, The electrode body 211 and the fixing body 214 of the electrodes 210a and 210b are fastened and fixed.

In the present invention, the output mode of the iontophoresis device for a mask pack can be set for each type of cosmetics.

Generally, the cleansing vitamin C products mainly have negative ions, so that a negative current must be supplied to the active electrode portion so that the negative ions are put into the skin by half of the charges.

The nutritional product mainly contains positive ions and a positive current must be supplied to the active electrode portion so that the positive ions are injected into the skin by the repulsion of charges.

The mask pack usually consists of a mixture of about 60 kinds of essence ingredients. Some of them are added to make whitening, wrinkle improvement, moisturizing mask pack. It is also called.

Some of the 60 components of the mask pack can be reinforced to divide it into moisturizing, whitening, wrinkle improvement, and a comprehensive mask pack. In other words, depending on which part of the ingredient is reinforced, the effect of the mask pack can be claimed, but it is mostly in the form of a large scale.

In other words, it is not easy to divide into moisturizing, wrinkle-improving, and whitening because there are various components in a complex manner.

The main function of the mask pack is a combined function combining moisturizing, whitening (whitening), nutrition (wrinkle improvement), and three functions.

For these three basic functions and comprehensive functions, this unit has four modes of whitening, nutrition, moisturizing, and complex, and an extended mode (sensitive, sensitive) for each mode

The effect of the extension mode with added sensitivity and sensitivity is as follows.

By gradually increasing the intensity of the output, it is possible to increase the skin-adaptation ability against the micro-current, thereby preventing red spots or burns that may occur in the skin.

Sensitive (++) mode is suitable for those who are sensitive to current conduction and feel red spots or tingling on the skin,

Sensitive (+) mode may be suitable for those who are sensitive to current conduction due to skin shape and oily skin,

It is more efficient for universal people to use it as one of the basic modes of composite, whitening, nutrition, and moisturizing, where the current intensity is somewhat higher but the output current intensity is the highest and there is no change in the output current intensity.

At this time, as described above, by rapidly changing the output current intensity, it is possible to increase the relaxation force of the skin tissue at the portion where the current is energized, and to increase the skin putting effect of the mask pack essence component even at a relatively low current. In addition, by changing the output current intensity, the ionization bonding state of the mask pack essence component can be changed to increase the reactivity of the charge repulsion and the response to the suction force, thereby increasing the effect of putting the essence component.
