Description

{THERAPEUTIC APPARATUS FOR FACIAL ERYTHEMA}

The present invention relates to a facial flushing therapy apparatus, which irradiates light of a specific wavelength band that can treat facial flushing to the face skin of a user, while massaging the face using a roller unit whose surface is cooled to a predetermined temperature, The present invention relates to a facial flushing therapy apparatus capable of quickly and effectively treating a facial flushing that has occurred.

In general, a large number of blood vessels are distributed in the human skin, and these blood vessels are thickened or decreased by the control of autonomic nerves.

People become tense and angry, or when they get embarrassed, their autonomic nerves are stimulated to increase the thickness of the blood vessels, which causes a lot of blood to flow through the enlarged blood vessels and the skin becomes red. Also, when eating hot or spicy foods, similar symptoms can occur when your body is warm enough to exercise and sweat.

In particular, the face of a person has a larger number of blood vessels than the other regions, and the face is easily reddened compared to other regions because the skin is thin and blood vessels are well visible.

This reddening of the face skin is generally called 'facial flushing'.

These facial flushes occur about 1 ~ 3% in Koreans and about 10% in Westerners.

Facial flushing is a cosmetic problem that causes a variety of facial flushing. External factors include sunlight, stress, cold weather, hot food, hot baths, hormonal changes, and medications.

In particular, there is a skin disease called rosacea, which causes a buildup of blood vessels due to constitutional minor stimuli, which is a typical disease causing facial flushing.

Injection (rosacea) is a relatively common chronic skin disease with various clinical symptoms that are not yet clearly defined.

These injections are mainly manifested on the face, which occurs in the central part of the face, especially on the protruding parts such as the nose periphery, and on the cheeks, chin and forehead.

In addition, injections show erythema, flushing, telangiectasia, papules, and pustules, mainly erythema and flushing.

In this way, the cause of facial flushing is very diverse, and the cause of the flushing is difficult to treat because it may not be known.

Among the conventional facial flushing methods, there are methods of treating underlying diseases, changing lifestyle or environment, and avoiding known causes of triggering. However, these methods can not be sure of the therapeutic effect, and even if a certain effect appears, it takes considerable effort and long time to obtain a satisfactory effect. Particularly, in the case where the cause is unknown, the effectiveness of the treatment can not be guaranteed because the treatment effect can not be guaranteed.

On the other hand, people not only treat facial flushes, but also find skin specialist hospitals for other skin diseases and skin care. This visit to the hospital to identify the cause of the skin disease through medical consultation and try to prevent the cause of the disease, while treating the skin disease by using the medicine prescribed by the doctor. In addition, in order to obtain a faster treatment effect, various kinds of skin treatment devices provided at hospitals are used to perform appropriate treatment according to the skin condition.

However, when the patient visits the hospital and treats facial flushing or other skin diseases as described above, there is a lot of inconvenience because the patient must continuously visit the hospital to obtain a sufficient therapeutic effect. In other words, it is not easy for busy modern people to take time to visit the hospital several times, resulting in a large economic burden.

In order to solve the inconvenience of visiting the hospital as described above, there have been developed skin care devices such as various types of skin care devices, skin beauty devices, and skin treatment devices that users can easily use at home.

The above-mentioned skin care devices are cheap and portable, and can be easily managed by the user without expert knowledge, and are used by many users at present.

For example, various types of skin care devices such as skin massage such as heat treatment using low frequency or ultrasonic wave, cleaning, exfoliation, skin treatment such as skin treatment using laser, and skin sterilization using specific wavelength of ultraviolet rays are used .

As an example of the related art related to various skin care devices described above, a "portable skin beauty machine" has been proposed in Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0432206 (registered on November 23, 2006).

The above-described prior art is a technique that can be massaged using specific LED wavelengths for skin regeneration and acne treatment effective for wrinkle improvement, convenient for carrying, and easy to use at home.

The above-described portable skin beauty machine of the related art has been developed for the purpose of wrinkle improvement and acne treatment, and it may help the facial flushing treatment by alleviating the symptoms of erythema and redness by improving the overall skin condition and treating acne.

However, the above-mentioned portable skin beauty machine of the prior art is not suitable for use for facial flushing treatment.

In other words, when skin care is performed using various conventional household or portable skin care devices including the above-described conventional techniques, the skin condition of the user is improved as a whole, and erythema and flushing are caused by the incidental effect By soothing the lesion site, it may be helpful to some extent to treat facial flushing.

However, since existing skin care devices are irradiated with light of a generally known wavelength band to improve the skin condition, it is impossible to expect a definite facial flushing effect.
