Patent number: 10137298Abstract: A hand-held device for electrically powered skin treatment is disclosed. The device includes a first outer electrode, a second outer electrode, and a plurality of rechargeable batteries. The plurality of batteries are disposed in a compartment where the compartment is covered by a shell-like housing cover and where an outside of the housing cover is a section of an exterior area of a device housing. The compartment is covered by a removable compartment cover where an inner side of the compartment cover is directed toward the plurality of batteries in the compartment and where a connector socket with at least two poles is disposed on an outer side of the compartment cover. The compartment cover is located within the housing cover. A charging circuit is coupled to the plurality of batteries.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2014Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: Swiss Spa System Ltd.Inventors: Bruno Gimelli, James N. Doyle, Jr.

Patent number: 10124165Abstract: A hand-held device for electrically powered skin treatment is disclosed. Current is passed into the skin from an external electric circuit via an electrode so that active ingredients of a cream applied earlier to the skin can better penetrate into the skin. To aid this effect, a cap of the device, which functions as an electrode, is provided with a vibrator so that the electrode vibrates on the skin, thus working the cream into the skin.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2013Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: Swiss Spa System Ltd.Inventors: Bruno Gimelli, James N. Doyle, Jr.

Patent number: 9042993Abstract: A method and system of conditioning human skin and hair using a hand-held skin/hair conditioner having interchangeable interface conductors that are contoured to enhance electrical conductivity between the conditioner and a variety of body areas. Each of the interchangeable interface conductors are preferably formed to maximize surface area contact with a variety of body surfaces such as scalp/hair, body skin, and facial skin. In a preferred embodiment, the skin/hair conditioner is formed to fit comfortably and controllably in a user's grasp while providing maximum contact with the selected body surface. The skin/hair conditioner includes an audio signal generator and a vibration mechanism to alert a user of a change in status of the conditioner. The interface conductors may be (1) smoothly rounded, (2) include teeth, (3) spherical or hemispherical (4) include multiple rounded nodules.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2014Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: Proventure (Far East), LimitedInventors: Stuart A. Cook, Bruno Gimelli, James N. Doyle, Jr.
