  • Patent number: 11896816
    Abstract: An unattended approach can increase the reproducibility and safety of the treatment as the chance of over/under treating of a certain area is significantly decreased. On the other hand, unattended treatment of uneven or rugged areas can be challenging in terms of maintaining proper distance or contact with the treated tissue, mostly on areas which tend to differ from patient to patient (e.g. facial area). Delivering energy via a system of active elements embedded in a flexible pad adhesively attached to the skin offers a possible solution. The unattended approach may include delivering of multiple energies to enhance a visual appearance.

  • Patent number: 11896299
    Abstract: A method of treating tissue of a patient uses a device including a mother case, a belt, at least one treatment unit and at least two applicators. The treatment method may include attaching first and second applicators to the belt at a working distance to the patient's surface, and providing different treatment energy to the first applicator and the second applicator. A treatment pattern is created by the applicators providing the different treatment energies. The hardware pattern or positions of the applicators on the belt may be changed before and/or during the treatment. The hardware pattern may be based on selected treatment effect and body part.

  • Patent number: 11896821
    Abstract: A method for aesthetic soft tissue treatment includes placing at least one applicator in contact with the patient's body. The applicator has at least one electrode. Electrotherapy and radio frequency therapy are provided to the soft tissue, optionally with overlay or sequentially. A handheld applicator may be used, with the applicator moving during the therapy, which may provide muscle stimulation in the patient, or provide an analgesic effect during the treatment. A spacing object may be positioned between the skin of the patient and the applicator.

  • Patent number: 11896823
    Abstract: In methods and devices for treating a body canal or cavity, an internal applicator has an insertable part or section for insertion into the body canal or cavity (e.g. vagina or anal canal) and non-insertable part which may be detachable from a handle or second part of the device. The insertable part may include a plurality of energy delivery elements, optionally spaced apart in an array. During treatment the insertable part is positioned into or onto the body canal or cavity. The treatment may then proceed without additional movement of the insertable part. The energy delivery elements may be activated in predetermined order.
