Description

Skin care apparatus

The present invention relates to a skin care device, and more particularly, to a skin care device that irradiates a far-infrared LED light having a therapeutic effect in various patterns while wearing an ergonomically designed device on the face and scalp, The present invention relates to a skin care device capable of applying an area heating unit and preventing a user's skin temperature from rising to a predetermined temperature or higher.

The phototherapy for treatment of skin diseases uses a variety of light sources such as sunlight, laser, fluorescent lamp and ultraviolet lamp to irradiate light to the skin to promote biochemical reaction in the skin, It is an optical medical technology that treats damaged skin through destruction.

The dual LED light source can be irradiated to a large area of diseased area with a suitable light output unlike a high output laser. The skin treatment technique using the LED light source is similar to the principle that sunlight is converted into plant cells through chlorophyll in plants To induce a photo-biochemical reaction between skin cells by irradiating the LED light source.

Such light therapy using an LED light source is based on the photon of an LED light source being absorbed into the chromospheres or photoacceptors in the cell tissue and promoting the metabolism of the cells. The light absorbed by the cells increases the synthesis of ROS and ATP in the cell tissue, and the cells exposed to red light and near-infrared light emit nitric oxide (NO).

At the appropriate time and frequency, light of a selected wavelength is absorbed by a photoreceptor, such as cytochrome c oxidase, which photodecomposes inhibitory NO, promotes enzyme activation, and promotes mitochondrial metabolism and ATP production. As a result, proteins such as hemoglobin and myoglobin release additional NO, which results from a continuous intracellular biochemical reaction. As a result, LED light irradiation on the cell activates the overall metabolic activity of the cell and plays a major role in cell regeneration and rehabilitation. In addition, LED light irradiation promotes the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, suppresses the occurrence of wrinkles, and makes the skin moist and elastic.

In addition, LED light irradiation has a significant effect on the treatment of skin diseases. For example, irradiation with LED light, particularly blue LED light, on the acne-generated skin part can eliminate the bacteria that cause acne and reduce inflammation, thereby improving the overall condition of the skin.

However, in the conventional skin beauty device, since it is necessary to continuously operate the skin care device in contact with the skin while holding the beauty device in use, there is a problem in that the operation is inconvenient and the therapeutic effect is insignificant.

And, if you sit on your face for a long time and use it to sit on it, your neck will get a lot of power because of its weight. This makes you feel inconvenient, and because of the structure of the product, There is a problem of reluctance to use because of heterogeneity.

In addition, due to the heat generated during use of the product, there is a problem that the product is worn only when the product is used, the skin is dry due to the feeling of dryness, and the LED is exposed to infrared light.
