Abstract: A tissue separating device (100) is provided. The tissue separating device (100) includes a canister device (20) including a canister body (21) defining a volume. A tissue retrieval port (36) can be arranged on the canister device (20) and is capable of being arranged in fluid communication with a harvesting device (300) for directing a fatty liposuction aspirate into the volume of the canister device (20). An adjustable height filtration mesh assembly (50) can be arranged within the canister body (21) and can include a filtering mesh (62). A tissue harvesting port (24) can be arranged in the sidewall of the canister body (21) and can be capable of being arranged in communication with a collection device (400) to allow the tissue harvesting port (24) to atraumatically receive a filtered pure fat collected on the filtering mesh (62).

Abstract: A blood flow restricting apparatus is provided. The blood flow restricting apparatus can include a frame element configured to be securable to a user's head. At least one cooling pad can be operatively arranged with the adjustable frame element and configured to be arranged over a defined anatomic location including at least one of a pair of supratrochlear arteries, a pair of supraorbital arteries, a pair of temporal arteries, and a pair of occipital arteries of the user's head when the frame element is secured to the user's head. A pressurizing mechanism can be operatively arranged with the at least one cooling pad and capable of pressing the at least one cooling pad against the defined anatomic location to restrict blood flow to each of the targeted arteries while simultaneously cooling the defined anatomic location to induce hypothermic induced vasoconstriction.

Abstract: A tissue separating device and a method of separating pure fat from a fatty liposuction aspirate are provided. The tissue separating device includes a canister device including canister body having a sidewall defining a volume. A tissue retrieval port can be arranged on the canister device and is capable of being arranged in fluid communication with a harvesting device for directing a fatty liposuction aspirate into the volume of the canister device. An adjustable height filtration mesh assembly can be arranged within the canister body and can include a filtering mesh separating the volume into an upper vacuum chamber and a lower vacuum chamber. A tissue harvesting port can be arranged in the sidewall of the canister body and can be capable of being arranged in communication with a collection device to allow the tissue harvesting port to atraumatically receive a filtered pure fat collected on the filtering mesh within the upper vacuum chamber.
