Abstract: Methods and devices including a skin or a lip and more particularly methods and devices that enhances absorption of fluid treatment media into tissue for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes.

Abstract: Cosmetic blenders and applicators, and more particularly to a soft, resilient blender system that includes an open-cell memory foam surface portion that is easily cleanable or optionally disposable in combination with a resilient core and a fluid impermeable boundary between the surface portion and the resilient core. Further, variations of the blender provide a patterned surface structures for makeup pickup and release together tamping features and user-controlled variable stiffness surface tamping features.

Abstract: The tissue cutting device comprises an elongated assembly including both an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve. The outer sleeve has a tissue-receiving window, and the inner sleeve has a distal end which cuts tissue as the inner sleeve is advanced past the window. The tissue is received into a lumen of the inner sleeve, and the inner sleeve lumen is typically enlarged in a proximal direction to reduce the tendency of resected tissue to lodge therein. The tissue displacement member is optionally provided at a distal end of the outer sleeve to further aid in dislodging tissue which becomes captured in a distal end of the inner sleeve of the lumen.

Abstract: Systems and devices for resecting and removing tissue or organs from the interior of a patient's body, in a minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure while preventing any dispersion of potentially malignant tissue during the resection process.

Abstract: Medical instruments and systems for applying energy to tissue, and more particularly relates to a system for ablating thin layers of the wall of a lumen in a patient's gastrointestinal tract such as a small intestine to cause an intended therapeutic effect. Devices perform the treatment by contacting targeted tissue with a vapor phase media wherein a subsequent vapor-to-liquid phase change of the media applies thermal energy to the tissue.

Abstract: Robotic surgical systems configured to control the movement and actuation of a single robotic arm, and the movement and actuation of multiple tools carried at a distal end of the robotic arm.

Abstract: Methods and devices for treating and occluding a female patient's fallopian tubes to provide permanent or extended birth control or sterilization.

Abstract: Robotic surgical systems configured to control the movement and actuation of a single robotic arm, and the movement and actuation of multiple tools carried at a distal end of the robotic arm.

Abstract: Cosmetic applicators, blenders and aids, and more particularly to a resilient blender that includes an open-cell memory foam surface component that is easily cleanable or disposable in combination with a resilient core component. Further, the core component of the system includes a spring structure for greatly accelerating the rebound of the blender surface from a compressed state to a repose memory or de-compressed state.

Abstract: Hygienic cosmetic applicators, blenders and aids, and more particularly to a soft, resilient blender system that includes an open-cell memory foam surface component that is easily cleanable or disposable in combination with a core resilient component that is fluid impermeable. Hygienic cosmetic applicators, blenders and aids including a core component with one or more spring elements for greatly accelerating the rebound of the blender surface from a compressed state to a repose memory state.

Abstract: Light stimulation systems and methods for elevating testosterone levels in male patients.

Abstract: Methods and devices for treatment of a uterine cavity to prevent adhesions following a surgical intervention.

Abstract: Robotic surgical systems configured to control the movement and actuation of a single robotic arm, and the movement and actuation of first and second tools carried in a tool holder at a distal end of the robotic arm.

Abstract: Methods, systems and devices for applying energy to tissue, and more particularly relates to a system for ablating or modifying structures in a body with systems and methods that generate a flow of vapor at a controlled flow rate for applying energy to the body structure.

Abstract: Devices for treating a subject's skin or lips and more particularly to device that enhances absorption of treatment media into tissue for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes.

Abstract: Cosmetic blenders and applicators, and more particularly to a soft, resilient blender system that includes an open-cell memory foam surface component that is easily cleanable or optionally disposable in combination with a core component that is fluid impermeable. Further, variations of the blender provide (i) patterned surface structures for makeup pickup and release together tamping features, (ii) user-controlled variable stiffness surface tamping features, (iii) actuated surface tamping features, (iv) accelerometer controlled surface tamping actuators, (v) wireless communication with smart phones and the like for controlling actuators, recording use and providing users with indications of optimal methods of use, (vi) sensors for sensing skin contacting parameters, and (vii) light and/or thermal emitters for enhancing blending and setting of cosmetic materials.
