Abstract
A system and method for treating skin and areas proximate thereto, preferably using at least one of an exfoliant, a transducer operating at a frequency ranging from approximately 20 kHz to approximately 250 MHz, and/or a light source having a predominant wavelength ranging from approximately 400 nm to approximately 2,500 nm.
Claims8
A system for treating skin and areas proximate thereto, comprising:
- a first component, wherein the first component is a first hand piece adapted for treatment of skin using a skin exfoliating abrasive;
- a second component, wherein the second component is separate from the first component and is a transducer for treatment of skin;
- an optional third component, wherein the optional third component is separate from the first and second components and is an adjustable lamp that emits light having a wavelength ranging from 400 nm to 2,940 nm;
- a single air pressure source providing positive pressure;
- at least one of a controller and a regulator for controlling a pressure value of pressurized air from the air pressure source;
- an output tube for collecting waste from a skin treatment site;
- and
- a positive pressure-to-vacuum generating eductor coupled to the output tube.
