Description

Self-diagnosis possible hair loss treatment device {Monitorable hair loss treatment device}

The present invention relates to a hair loss treatment device capable of self-diagnosis, and more particularly, to a hair loss treatment device capable of self-diagnosis and selective treatment possible.

Hair loss refers to a state in which there is insufficient hair in the area where hair should normally be. It is known that such hair loss is caused by various causes such as genetic factors, the action of male hormones, stress, and environmental pollution. Hair loss was mainly considered a concern of middle-aged men, but recently, as the number of young people in their 20s and 30s and female hair loss patients increases, it is emerging as a serious social problem, and interest in hair loss treatment devices is also increasing.

Phototherapy, represented by Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), is based on the conversion of light energy into chemical, kinetic or thermal energy for physiological and chemical therapeutic purposes in cells, and It is important that the wavelength of light is efficiently absorbed into the cell. In general, since long-wavelength light penetrates deeply into cells, the LED light source causes different biochemical reactions in cell tissues depending on the wavelength. Although it depends on the type of cell tissue, light with a wavelength of 400 nm has a penetration depth of 1 mm or less, light with a wavelength of 514 nm has a penetration depth of 0.5 to 2 mm, and light with a wavelength of 630 nm has a penetration depth of 1 to 6 mm, and 700 to 900 nm It is known that wavelengths of light can penetrate deeper.

Recently, when a light beam of a specific wavelength is irradiated to a living tissue, a device for treating hair loss using a phenomenon in which the metabolism is promoted and the function of the tissue is activated has been developed.

Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0995427 proposes a hair growth promoting laser treatment device (Patent Document 1). Referring to FIG. 1, Patent Document 1 is characterized in that LLLT (Low Level Laser Therapy, low-level laser therapy) and low-frequency vibration therapy are applied to the scalp in order to promote the generation and growth of hair. However, Patent Document 1 does not disclose any component capable of monitoring the condition of the user's hair and scalp during treatment.

Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 2017-0128698 proposes a scalp management device and system (Patent Document 2). Referring to FIG. 2 , Patent Document 2 discloses a light irradiation unit 10 including a plurality of light sources, an imaging unit 31 for acquiring a close-up image of the scalp, and a close-up image of the scalp from the imaging unit 31 . It is characterized in that it comprises a light source condition determination unit (30) including a determination unit (32) for receiving the transmission, determining the condition of the scalp, and determining the condition of the irradiation light according to the condition of the scalp. However, Patent Document 2 relates to a device capable of determining a condition of irradiation light suitable for a scalp condition, and no consideration is given to a technique for monitoring a user's hair condition during treatment using a mobile electronic device. The device without the self-monitoring element has a problem in that it does not solve the inconvenience and anxiety caused by the user's use of the device.
