Abstract: An abrasive tip is used to exfoliate skin and tissue through abrasive materials integrated in the tip. The tip also delivers fluid to the skin and vacuums the fluid and abraded tissue during treatment. Treated skin will look younger and healthier in appearance. In an implementation, the tip is replaceable and disposable.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a handheld microdermabrasion device includes a treatment head and a motor for driving, e.g., oscillating or rotating, the treatment head to abrade or exfoliate the skin. The treatment head may be abrasive or non-abrasive, and includes a passage or opening in communication with a reservoir for containing a topical solution. As the skin is abraded by the treatment head, the topical solution from the reservoir is automatically dispensed through the opening in the treatment head. In some embodiments, the motor which drives the treatment head also drives a pump for moving fluid from the reservoir and through the treatment head. The topical solution may be abrasive or non-abrasive. In some embodiments, the topical solution is a therapeutic solution for treating the skin.

Abstract: A microdermabrasion system includes a security mechanism that allows the system to be used upon receiving a proper input code; otherwise the security mechanism prevents the system from being used. In an implementation, even after receiving a proper input code, the security mechanism disables the system after a certain amount of time has elapsed.

Abstract: A microdermabrasion system offers a combination of other skin therapies in conjunction with microdermabrasion. In an implementation, the system applies light therapy, photodynamic therapy, radio frequency and microwave energy therapy, massage therapy, or combinations of these while exfoliating the skin.

Abstract: A microdermabrasion system upgrade kit includes a plurality of couplers from which a user may choose one or more couplers in order to connect the upgrade kit to a vacuum source of an existing microdermabrasion system. In an implementation, the upgrade kit includes a power socket that the user can plug the vacuum source into.
