  • Publication number: 20170072175
    Abstract: The device includes a handle configured to be grasped by a user. The handle has a proximal end nearest the user's hand and a distal end opposing the proximal end. The device also includes an applicator with an applicator tip at the distal end of the handle. The applicator tip fits within the depression formed by a skin wrinkle to apply treatment to at least one side wall and bottom area of the wrinkle without applying treatment to surface skin around the wrinkle. The applicator tip may be pre-medicated with medicine, applied to the tip by a user, or provided medication from a chamber in communication with the applicator tip such that the chamber holds medication. Also disclosed is a method for applying wrinkle treatment that includes aligning the applicator tip with the wrinkle and moving the applicator tip along the length of the wrinkle to apply treatment.

  • Publication number: 20160095776
    Abstract: A leg elevating device is provided that is formed from foam, an air bladder, or supportive sheets of material with straps or supports. The device elevates a user's legs when laying down such that the device has a front, a back, a first side and a second side. The device has a bottom surface having and a top surface located above the bottom surface, the top surface extending upward from a front edge, and two side edges toward to form a curved shaped. The one or more apexes are located above a back edge or above a middle of the bottom surface. The top surface ends at the back of the support material at a top surface back edge. Depending on the configuration a back surface connects to the back edge of the bottom surface, and extends upward to connect to the back of the top surface.

  • Patent number: 8978178
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fabric arrangement and pillow designed to prevent skin lines and wrinkle formation while improving sleep using combinations of fabrics, cooling technologies and scents. The present invention is designed with a specific fabric and materials combination that create a surface in which the shear stresses causing skin lines and wrinkles are eliminated. Multiple layers make up the fabric arrangement include a top layer comprising a stretchable material and a second layer comprising a low friction material relative to the first layer. Supporting the first two layer is a support layer such as foam. Lower layers may comprise a cooling material, an antimicrobial or anti-allergenic material and a scent layer.

  • Publication number: 20100306917
    Abstract: An improved exercise mat allows performance of one or more physical activities while preventing direct user contact with the floor. In this manner, a user always remains “on” the mat unlike traditional exercise mats. The improved exercise mat may comprise a resilient material having a shape configured to prevent direct contact with the floor. The shape may be non-rectangular to save material and space, and may be continuous or a single piece. In one embodiment, the shape has portions that correspond to locations where a user's body would ordinarily contact the floor during a physical activity. The improved exercise mat may comprise textured areas, variable cushioning areas, or both configured based on one or more physical activities to provide cushioning and texturing appropriate to the physical activities.
