Description

Cosmetic container with iontophoresis introduction function

The present invention generates a galvanic current through the iontophoretic current generating device installed in the housing provided in the lid of the cosmetic container, so that the user dips the aqueous solution to the conductor cap that is attached to the transparent glass tube end working electrode formed by holding the cosmetic lid directly by hand. It relates to a cosmetic container that penetrates the nutrients of cosmetics deep into the skin through the galvanic current of the chemical solution component of the aqueous solution by contacting the cotton.

The outer peripheral wall of the lid with the power supply and the housing is one pole of the iontophoresis galvanic DC current, and an iontophoresis galvanic DC current can flow by installing a conductor cap at the end of a transparent glass tube formed at the center of the plug which is connected to the container inlet. So that it is connected to the opposite pole.

The outer circumferential wall of the lid serving as the grounding electrode was directly grounded from the iontophoretic current generator inside the housing, and a lead wire or conductor was installed at the center of the transparent glass tube combined with the cap of the conductor as the working electrode to connect the iontophoretic current generator. . In addition, an ion flow indicator lamp operated by a human body sensor is installed in the galvanic current generator circuit in the housing to hold the ground plane (ground electrode), which is the outer circumference of the lid, and to hold the working electrode installed at the end of the transparent glass tube rod formed by the lid cap When contacting, the iontophoresis galvanic current flows through the skin and the light from the ion flow display lamp is reflected through the transparent part of the glass tube due to the direct current, visually seeing the iontophoresis current of the iontophoresis penetrating the skin. Able to know. In particular, the formed glass tube end conductor portion of the stopper coupled with the cosmetic container inlet can be made in various forms to suit the skin type. For example, it may be formed into a round shape of a cylindrical shape or a small groove so as to fill an aqueous solution in the form of a dish or an eyedropper to increase the contact area of the skin. In other words, the main body container is in the form of a general bottle that can contain an aqueous solution, and the core, which is the core for ion implantation, is a dropper bottle in the form of a cylindrical glass tube penetrating the inner part of the cap stopper. The conductor cap was used as a working electrode, and the conductor cap was connected to the iontophoretic current generator in the housing by a lead wire through the through hole. The outer circumferential wall of the lid was directly connected to the opposite pole of the housing negative iontophoretic current generator to become a ground electrode. The transparent glass tube penetrates the ion flow indicator lamp when the human body sensor installed in the housing inside the lid is turned on to emit light through the glass tube so that the chemical liquid can penetrate the skin and operate visually. It is a passage of lead wire for supplying current to the part. In addition, an ion flow indicator lamp is installed by transparent or semi-transparent ringing with a cover part with opening and closing part that can be plated with metal or opaque conductor, and the battery can be exchanged. In the light of a diode), the ground electrode and the working electrode may be used to emit light upon skin penetration of the ionic drug.

Most women use a variety of skin care and beauty tools in combination with cosmetics to protect young and beautiful skin. Under the stratum corneum of the skin epidermis, a thick protein protective layer forms a protective barrier to protect the skin. The protein protective layer separates the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin, thus making cosmetics, nutrients, bioactive substances and therapeutic drugs. Even if the use does not remove the waste accumulated in the dermal layer, and the substance and nutrients do not penetrate deeply into the dermal layer, so the effect of skin beauty and treatment is very poor. Therefore, various skin care devices and methods using galvanic ion current, vibration massage, far infrared rays, low frequency and high frequency have been researched and utilized to enhance the skin beauty and treatment effect. Referring to the galvanic ion current, when a direct current is applied to the body, ion movement occurs, an alkaline reaction occurs in the tissue at the cathode region, and a weakly acidic reaction occurs at the anode region. As such, when ionizing cosmetics or the like, cosmetics easily pass through the skin mucosa, and the effect of iontophoresis that penetrates into the tissue in the skin occurs. Galvanic ion causes chemical changes as it passes through an aqueous solution of acid and salt. These chemical changes also occur when galvanic ion currents pass between body tissues and cosmetic solutions. By galvanic ion current through the skin to move the ions existing inside and outside the skin to stimulate and absorb the skin can make the skin surface and interior to the optimal state. Galvanic ion current is a current in which the direction and magnitude of the flow remain constant despite the change of time. The galvanic ion current has a large chemical effect, a heating effect, and a stimulating effect of blood vessel movement. This is accompanied by characteristics. Therefore, the use of ion energy by galvanic ion current gently relaxes the nerves of the skin and delivers various water-soluble substances to the skin while simultaneously providing electrical, thermal and chemical effects. It can be ionized to maximize skin beauty and treatment effect and is also widely used for physical therapy. However, in the conventional skin care device using galvanic ion current, in order to apply galvanic ion current to the human body, there is a contact part called a large electrode on the handle part of the skin beauty device, and the hand must hold the beauty device directly by hand when using it. Form one electrode through, and is configured to continue to massage another one of the working electrode formed to fit to the other end of the skin care device in close contact with the desired skin area. At this time, in order to enhance the skin beauty and treatment effect, the cosmetics or skin medicaments are applied directly to the skin, and the working electrodes must be closely adhered to the skin of the corresponding part to continuously massage for a long time. There are many things that are tiring and uncomfortable to do.

In addition, in general, the drug delivery through the skin (transdermal drug delivery) is a method that is widely used in recent years because it is possible to absorb the drug directly into the human circulatory system. The drug administration method through the skin has the advantage of being able to avoid the digestive action or metabolic action of the liver caused by oral administration, thereby reducing the gastrointestinal tract or liver disorder and properly delivering the effect of the drug. The iontophoresis through the skin of the drug administration method through the skin uses an electrophoresis effect to allow the ionic substance, medicine, or drug to be delivered to the body by the iontophoresis method. It is also known that iontophoretic delivery methods can be used to deliver an uncharged drug or agent to the body. This is accomplished by a method called electroosmosis. Electroosmotic is caused by flux through the skin of a liquid solvent (e.g., a liquid solvent containing an uncharged drug or agent) induced by the presence of an electric field applied across the skin by a donor electrode. It can be seen as. The term iontophoretic is firstly to deliver a drug or drug charged by the electrophoresis method, second, to deliver a drug or drug that is not charged by the electroosmotic method, third, electrophoresis and electroosmotic Using a combination of methods to deliver a charged drug or agent, and fourth, to transfer a charged drug or agent and a mixture of uncharged drugs or agents using a combination of electrophoresis and electroosmotic pressure. . However, the method of administering the drug through the skin is difficult to oral administration, so that the pain or drug overuse caused by the injection method can be reduced, and the drug can be continuously absorbed for a long time, thereby improving the bioavailability of the drug. In addition, the device can be used quickly because the device is complicated, expensive, and not easy to use, despite the advantage that it can be quickly stopped in case of skin side effects on the drug, as well as reduce the discomfort of the user. There is no problem.

Literature Information of the Prior Art

[1] The importance of electroinfiltration through the injection of drugs has been recognized in galvanic ion infusion. This is even more so in gene molecule therapy, as seen in more than 1,400 US patents and more than 5.600 papers published in scientific journals and magazines. This method is used in the medical treatment field because of its intrusive nature. Permeability of skin tissue was increased. Electroporation occurs in the skin when a membrane potential is generated in the epithelial cell structure by an electric wavelength of 0.5 to 1.5 volts. As a result, the lipid layer of the cell membrane changes.

It is well known for the formation of agueous vessels and is called "electropores".

After the electric wave enters, the formation of electro pores occurs. It only takes a few minutes and improves the permeability of the molecule. This enables penetration through the entire tissue targeted by electrical waves.

Agueous vessels maintain themselves for some time in proportion to the wavelength. This time ranges from a few seconds to about 10 minutes.

It has only recently been established by studies in the field of biochemistry, well known for the study of "Water channel dedicated to transport of water into cells." The study won American scholars Mackinnon and Peter for the 2003 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Ionophoresis, Iontophoresis and Electroporation were first mentioned by Volta and Galvani in 1707, and this law was formulated in Ledac in 1900.

The technique takes advantage of the principle that electrically discharged ions move at different speeds in an electric field generated by a continuous galvanic current.

[Document 3] It is a known technique that has already been introduced as a prior art in various documents such as Patent Publication Nos. 96-6662 and 96-14098.

It is a cosmetic container with iontophoresis introduction function using the pharmacologic direct current, deeply into the skin by the principle of ion massage (ion electrophoresis), which is a biomaterial of ionized functional cosmetics that cannot penetrate deep into the skin by the stratum corneum and granule layer of the skin epidermis. When used together with functional cosmetics ionized as internal aqueous solution as a delivery container, it maximizes skin penetration of chemical components of functional cosmetics to maintain healthy and elastic skin. Water-soluble ingredients like vitamin C do not penetrate easily into the skin. Therefore, it can be penetrated by iontophoresis, which is in proportion to the intensity and time of the current. Ion penetration does not exceed 1mm and absorbs capillary circulation and cell membrane permeation. Specifically, it improves acne and oily skin, prevents acne infections, cleans the skin by removing waste products in the skin pores, and reduces the redness of the skin caused by acne. In addition, it strengthens capillaries to help blood circulation, strengthens skin elasticity, improves blemishes, blemishes and fine lines, and maintains an optimal balance between moisture and oil, making it a weakly acidic skin. The effect of suppressing the deposition of the pigment was greatly improved. Rx (prescription): * Electrical Characteristics (Iontophoresis),
