Publication number: 20110196456Abstract: In an intense pulsed light optical radiation is directed from a lamp 9 to a skin treatment surface to provide cosmetic and/or therapeutic treatment. The condition of the lamp is determined on the basis of a variation of electrical characteristic as it ages, rather then by measuring the light output. The electrical energy applied to the lamp 9 is controlled to compensate for varying electrical characteristics of the bulb as it ages. Furthermore, the device includes an end of life assessment which is based on the electrical characteristic of the bulb 9 rather than simply a cycle count.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2011Publication date: August 11, 2011Applicant: THE DEZAC GROUP LIMITEDInventors: Philip MUTTON, Desmond MILLS

Patent number: 7866326Abstract: A hair coloring apparatus comprises upper and lower hinged body parts closable about a lock of hair (58). Within the body parts is contained a drive mechanism and a color applicator (32) so that, when applied to a user's hair and closed, the apparatus moves progressively down a lock of hair (58) applying hair treatment material as it moves.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2005Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: The Dezac Group LimitedInventors: Desmond Mills, Stephen Brown, Malcolm Mills

Patent number: 7729784Abstract: An electrode generally comprises a body, which makes up the electrode and which is formed as a thin flexible polymeric substance such as urethane foam. The electrode body includes a central inner conductive area, which is associated with a first electrode connector. Around the inner conductive area is a non-conductive area formed as a ring around the inner conductive area and there is also an outer conductive area provided as a ring, concentrically arranged around the non-conductive area. Electrode connector (6B) is connected to the outer conductive ring. The electrode body, which has a release tag and is supported on a backing sheet and body can be peeled off the backing sheet using the release tag. The condition of the electrode can be evaluated using a test device, which can for example measure electrical impedance across the electrode via electrodes (6A) and (6B).Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2002Date of Patent: June 1, 2010Assignee: The Dezac Group LimitedInventors: Desmond Bryan Mills, Kevin Herbert

Publication number: 20100030201Abstract: A portable hair treatment device 1 includes a hand held portion or wand 2 containing a laser and associated optics for effecting skin treatment. The device includes a main base unit 3 including a recess shaped to receive the hand held unit 2 when not in use. At least one of the base unit 3 and the wand 2 includes a portable power source, e.g. a battery, to enable self-powered use.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2007Publication date: February 4, 2010Applicant: THE DEZAC GROUP LIMITEDInventors: Ahmed Bitter, Kevin Herbert

Publication number: 20090221993Abstract: A laser hair removal device 10 has a base unit 12 and a hand held laser wand 14. Laser 18 generates light pulses of sufficient energy and duration to damage papilla of each hair follicle in the path of the beam. The device 10 includes one or more safety features to prevent accidental misuse of the device. In particular, the device incorporates a high intensity LED 24 which makes looking at the potential path of the laser uncomfortable, thus promoting a blinking reflex. Additionally the device may incorporate a skin contact/proximity sensor 26 to prevent use of the laser away from the skin, and/or one or more locking element to prevent accidental powering of the laser.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2006Publication date: September 3, 2009Applicant: The Dezac Group LimitedInventors: Daniel Sohi, Alexander Wolski, Ahmad Bitter, Tony Grant
