  • Methods and systems for removing hair using focused acoustic energy
    Publication number: 20050154332
    Abstract: Hair is permanently removed from a patient's skin by transcutaneously focusing high intensity acoustic energy at a hair follicle. Usually, a region of a patient's skin is first ultrasonically imaged to locate individual hair follicles. The imaged hair follicles are then treated using a system which automatically directs the high intensity acoustic energy at the follicles.
