Patent number: 11883017Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include a hyaluronic thread coupled with an insertion device that can provide a supportive enclosure for the thread as it is injected into a patient's skin or other tissue. The device can include a moveable member and laterally extending portions, a closed distal portion, and an inner cavity so that the thread can be positioned within the inner cavity and extend along the moveable member. The laterally extending portions can move, relative to the thread, to expose the thread. In use, the moveable member is insertable into a patient and at least a portion of the moveable member is configured to move within a patient to expose the thread.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Inventors: Antoine Duc, Bastien Mandaroux

Patent number: 11224501Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include an insertion device that can enclose and support a hyaluronic thread as it is injected into a patient's skin or other tissue. The device can include a cover member, a non-tubular support member, and the thread. The cover member can have a proximal portion, a closed distal portion, and an inner cavity extending from the proximal portion toward the closed distal portion. The thread can be positioned along a longitudinal length of support member, between the support member and the cover member. The non-tubular support member can extend within the inner cavity of the cover member. The cover member can be moveable relative to the support member to expose the thread.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2020Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: Allergan Industrie, SASInventors: Antoine Duc, Bastien Mandaroux

Patent number: 11039910Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include an insertion device having moveable portions that can retain, move, or otherwise control engagement and injection of a hyaluronic thread. The device can include a tubular member and a handle. The handle can include a body component coupled to the tubular member. The body component can include a passage that extends in communication with the lumen. The handle can further comprise first and second arms coupled to the body component and extending outwardly from the distal portion of the tubular member. Based on the configuration, the first and second arms can be positioned along the passage to change a cross-sectional profile of the passage and permit the device to engage or disengage the thread.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2019Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: Allergan Industrie SASInventors: Antoine Duc, Bastien Mandaroux

Publication number: 20210045736Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include a hyaluronic thread that is coupled at a distal portion with an insertion device. The insertion device can include a cover member and a piston that can collectively facilitate engagement with or disengagement of the distal portion of the thread with the device. For example, the piston can be positioned within an inner cavity of the cover member, and the distal portion of the thread can be engaged by and/or between the piston and the cover member. The thread can be released by movement of the piston relative to the cover member. Thus, some insertion devices can grasp or engage the distal portion of the thread and “push” the distal portion of the thread into and through into skin or other tissue of a patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2020Publication date: February 18, 2021Inventors: Antoine DUC, Bastien MANDAROUX

Patent number: 10709444Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include a hyaluronic thread coupled with an insertion device that can provide a supportive enclosure for the thread as it is injected into a patient's skin or other tissue. The device can include a cover member, a base, and a thread. The cover member can have a proximal portion, a closed distal portion, and an inner cavity extending from the proximal portion toward the closed distal portion. The thread can be positioned within the inner cavity and extend from the base toward the closed distal portion. The base can be removably coupled to the proximal portion of the cover member. In use, the cover member is insertable into a patient and separable from the base to expose the thread.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2017Date of Patent: July 14, 2020Assignee: Allergan Industrie SASInventors: Antoine Duc, Bastien Mandaroux

Publication number: 20190239997Abstract: Devices and methods for inserting an implant into skin or other tissue of a patient can include an insertion device having moveable portions that can retain, move, or otherwise control engagement and injection of a hyaluronic thread. The device can include a tubular member and a handle. The handle can include two or more components that each include apertures through which a needle can be placed. The handle can be manipulated to align or offset the apertures with respect to each other to modify a clearance through the apertures and selectively engage or disengage the needle or thread.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2019Publication date: August 8, 2019Inventors: Antoine DUC, Bastien MANDAROUX
