Abstract: Extension devices for attaching hair extension elements to artificial hair elements that protrude from a subcutaneously implanted hair implant anchor body. One extension device involves a cylindrical structure having respective cavities on opposing ends. One cavity receives the distal end of the artificial hair element while the other cavity receives the hair extension therein. Another extension device involves a hair extension element forming a first portion of the device while a second opposite portion includes a projection that is received inside a hollow interior of the artificial hair element. A third extension device involves a core having a hair extension element projecting from one side of the core while a single cavity is located on a second side, opposite the one side, and which receives the distal end of the artificial implanted hair element therein. The hair extension may comprise ancillary hair elements and bud structures.

Abstract: A penile sleeve device (PSD) that is an implantable subcutaneous penile shaft silicone rubber apparatus which has several functions such as to elongate, thicken, harden, straighten and custom shape a penis. The PSD has an elongated main component of stretchable elastic silicone elastomer into which an inner component of a much higher durometer silicone rubber material is positioned to provide the PSD with some rigidity. The main component is the only portion in contact with the penile shaft since the inner component resides within a pocket of the main component that is formed by two layers therein. The outside surface of these layers may include folds to assist in enhancing penile girth and lengthening. A penile stocking insert is also provided for increasing the length of the penis it is flaccid or erect state using an elongated tubular body constructed from an elastic material which applies a compressive force around the penile shaft, thus elongating the length of the penis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions in the form of oil-in-water dispersions comprising a silicone oil having an average droplet diameter from about 30 microns to about 2000 microns and a polymeric thickening agent. These compositions are useful for stimulating collagen production in human patients and other mammals, and have applications for soft tissue augmentation for various medical and cosmetic procedures. The present invention also relates to methods for preparing these compositions and to methods for stimulating collagen production in human patients and other mammals in need thereof. In contrast to the prior art, the compositions and methods of the present invention are particularly useful for stimulating the production of high quality collagen that is uniform, smooth, long-lasting, and having good structural integrity.

Abstract: A penile insert device effective to prevent retraction of the penis and to increase the length of a penis in its flaccid or erect state. An elongated body of the penile insert device can have a proximal end, a distal end, a first side edge, a second side edge, a top surface, and a bottom surface. Each of the first and second side edges is formed by a plurality of alternating lateral plateaus and lateral valleys. The lateral plateaus are smoothly connected to adjacent lateral plateaus by the lateral valleys. The lateral valleys of the first side edge is staggered with respect to the lateral valleys of the second side edge such that the lateral plateaus and valleys of the first lateral side and the lateral plateaus and valleys of the second side edge form a zigzag pattern in the body.
