- bioabsorbable metals are made of magnesium-based alloys for application as orthopedic implants, and are commercially available at home and abroad. Bioabsorbable metals applied to orthopedic implants are decomposed in a pad for safe fracture fixation. The focus was on slowing speed as much as possible or improving corrosion resistance.
- the bioabsorbable metal forming the microneedles 100 accelerates the decomposition rate in the body to supply minerals with drug release under the skin.
- the mechanism can be applied.
- magnesium, calcium, and zinc which are utilized as bioabsorbable metals, have a mechanism of reacting with water to release hydrogen gas and decomposing as shown in the following [Formula 1] to [Formula 3].
- the substrate 110 and the needle 130 formed of the bioabsorbable metal as described above release ions and decomposition products under the skin, and the hydrogen gas generated by the by-products provides a swelling effect within the skin to improve wrinkles. Can be derived.
- the by-products ZnO and MgCl which are produced by inserting magnesium and zinc as constituents of the bioabsorbable metal, remain on the skin surface subcutaneously, and the drugs supported on the substrate 110 and the needle 120 are subcutaneously. It may also play the role of a drug delivery enhancer to enhance absorption. Therefore, the substrate unit 110 and the needle unit 130 formed of a bioabsorbable metal can effectively deliver the drug supported thereon to the user.
- the shape of the needle hole 120 and the needle portion 130 formed in the substrate portion 110 is patterned on the substrate portion 110 by a known lithography or etching technique. Can be formed.
- the edge of the needle portion 130 may be formed by the lithography or etching technique. It may corrode and become sharper than the thickness of the raw material itself. That is, a sharp inclined surface having a thickness smaller than its own thickness is formed on the circumference of the first needle 131 or the second needle 132 by corrosion according to a lithography or etching technique to be easily inserted subcutaneously. It can have a sharp shape.
- the multi-type micro needle 100 since the multi-type micro needle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a needle hole 120 having a relatively large diameter or a larger area than a needle hole formed in a conventional micro needle, the user may Through the ball 120, light therapy (light-therapy; phototherapy) can also be received in parallel.
- light therapy light-therapy; phototherapy
- the user's skin may be exposed to the outside through the plurality of needle holes 120, and thus the exposed skin may be exposed to skin diseases such as skin pain, acne, and atopy.
- Phototherapy can also be easily performed by irradiating beneficial light.
- the user since the user may be treated by the drug injected into the skin through the needle part 130 and the light irradiated through the needle hole 120, the synergy effect of the drug treatment and the phototherapy can be expected. have.
- the light exposed to the human body is irradiated to the skin exposed through the needle hole 120, but it has been described as being able to receive a light therapy procedure. That is, the skin treatment material or skin treatment material may be applied to the skin exposed through the needle hole 120 to perform a skin treatment procedure.
- the substrate 110 may be in close contact with the user's skin by the needle hole (120).
- the needle ball 120 has a needle ball (only one needle formed in the existing microneedle due to the configuration of accommodating the plurality of needle parts 130 in one space). Holes having a relatively larger diameter or larger area, the skin of the user is inserted into the needle hole 120 when the substrate portion 110 is in contact with the skin of the user, at which time a negative pressure is formed so that the substrate The unit 110 may be in close contact with the skin.
- the microneedle 100 may have a configuration in which the substrate part 110 may be in close contact with the skin of the user by the needle hole 110.
- the multi-type microneedle 100 configured as described above has a configuration in which a plurality of needle portions are provided in a predetermined pattern around one needle hole, so that a plurality of needle portions are inserted into the skin of a predetermined area. Drugs to be delivered to can be rapidly spread or penetrated subcutaneously.
- the multi-type micro needle 100 since the substrate portion 110 may have a honeycomb structure by the needle hole 120 formed in the form of a regular hexagon, the needle portion 130 Deformation or breakage of the substrate 110 by the press may be minimized in the press pressing process that is bent.
- the plurality of needle parts 130 may be formed on a substrate without having the same number of press pieces as the number of the needle parts 130 provided on the movable mold of the press. Since it can protrude from the unit 110, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost of the movable mold of the press, as a result can reduce the manufacturing cost of the microneedle and simplify the manufacturing process.
- microneedles of the present invention can be sold and used in various industrial fields such as the medical field and the skin care field.
