Abstract
Methods and apparatus for dermatology treatment are provided which involve the use of continuous wave (CW) radiation, preheating of the treatment volume, precooling, cooling during treatment and post-treatment cooling of the epidermis above the treatment volume, various beam focusing techniques to reduce scattering and/or other techniques for reducing the cost and/or increasing the efficacy of optical radiation for use in hair removal and other dermatological treatments. A number of embodiments are included for achieving the various objectives indicated above.
Claims
AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 9 November 1998 (09.11.98); new claims 57-79 added; remaining claims unchanged (3 pages)]
(a) preheating the patient's skin to raise the selected volume to a selected temperature while not heating any portion of the skin to a temperature sufficient to cause thermal damage thereto;
(b) applying electromagnetic radiation to said selected volume, the radiation being of a wavelength, energy and duration sufficient, in conjunction with the preheating, to effect thermal damage to at least a selected biological component within said selected volume.
57. A head for use in apparatus for effecting a selected dermatologic procedure on an area of a patient's skin including: an astigmatic lens having an elongated outer surface, one side of said surface contacting the patient's skin in said area along an elongated line: and a mechanism which delivers light of a wavelength suitable for said dermatologic procedure to said lens on a side thereof other than said one side; the said lens focusing light delivered thereto to a selected depth in the patient's skin.
58. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said lens is a cylindrical lens, and wherein the diameter of the cylindrical lens is such that light delivered thereto is focused to said selected depth.
59. A head as claimed in claim 58 wherein said cylindrical lens is mounted to rotate as said head is moved over said area.
60. A head as claimed in claim 58 wherein said lens is treated so as to normally have total internal reflection, said total internal reflection being broken at a surface of the lens in contact with a patient's skin.
61. A head as claimed in claim 58 wherein said lens has a radius of curvature of < 10 mm.
62. A head as claimed in claim 58 wherein said selected depth is at a depth for a portion of a hair follicle responsible at least in part for hair growth.
63. A head as claimed in claim 62 wherein said selected depth is at approximate!}' the depth of at least one of the hair bulge and the hair bulb.
64. A head as claimed in claim 58 wherein said selected depth is in the range of approximately 1 nm to 5 nm.
65. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said mechanism delivers light to said surface along a line substantially parallel to said elongated line.
66. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said mechanism causes light to be delivered to said lens at a variety of angles.
67. A head as claimed in claim 57 including a cooling mechanism for the patient's skin during at least one of before said lens makes contact therewith and while said lens is in contact therewith.
68. A head as claimed in claim 67 wherein said cooling mechanism includes a mechanism for cooling said lens.
69. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said selected depth is at a depth for a portion of a hair follicle responsible at least in part for hair growth.
70. A head as claimed in claim 69 wherein said selected depth is at approximately the depth of at least one of the hair bulge and the hair bulb.
71. A head as claimed in claim 69 wherein said selected depth is in the range of approximately 1 nm to 5 nm.
72. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said lens focuses light at said selected depth to an astigmatic focus area having a long dimension substantially parallel to said elongated line.
73. A head as claimed in claim 57 wherein said mechanism scans said light along said lens in its elongated direction, said scanning being at a selected rate.
74. A head for use in apparatus for effecting a selected dermatologic procedure on an area of a patient's skin including: a focusing element having a light receiving region, a light delivery region which is adapted to be in contact with the patient's skin, and a region which focuses light entering at said receiving region, the focus, when said element is in contact with the patient's skin, being to an elongated astigmated focus area at a selected skin depth; and a mechanism which delivers light of a wavelength suitable for said dermatologic procedure to said light receiving region.
75. A head as claimed in claim 74 wherein said selected depth is at a depth for a portion of a hair follicle responsible at least in part for hair growth.
76. A head as claimed in claim 75 wherein said selected depth is at approximately the depth of at least one of the hair bulge and the hair bulb.
77. A head as claimed in claim 74 wherein said selected depth is in the range of approximately 1 nm to 5 nm.
78. A head as claimed in claim 74 including a cooling mechanism for the patient's skin during at least one of before said element makes contact therewith and while said element is in contact therewith.
79. Apparatus as claimed in claim 1 wherein said CW radiation source is a high repetition rate pulse source, the pulse repetition rate (PRR) being such that the delay between pulses is less than dwell time of the head on said surface contacted by the head (i.e., PRR>V/d, where V= velocity at which head moves and d= dimension of said surface in direction of head movement.
