Description

Skin regeneration device using high frequency {Apparatus of regenerating skin using high frequency}

The present invention relates to a skin rejuvenation device, and more particularly, to induce a handpiece to properly contact the skin of a subject through a continuous check of suction pressure, and to provide a normal pressure to the skin of the subject. It relates to a skin regeneration device using a high frequency to insert a needle (needle) into the skin of the subject only when contacted with the high frequency output.

In general, the skin is the largest protection organ of the human body covering the entire body, it is known that the thinnest skin area around the eyes and the thickest soles in the human body.

The skin covering the whole body is composed of three layers of epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous fat.

The epidermal layer is the most superficial layer of the skin, and is composed of several layers such as the stratum corneum, the transparent layer, the granule layer, the polar layer and the basal layer according to the position and function to perform the functions of protection, defense and secretion.

The dermal layer is located below the epidermal layer and is located adjacent to the basal layer to form most of the skin. Capillaries and lymph, which are related to blood circulation, are composed of water, proteins, sugars, mucopolysaccharides, minerals, and inorganic salts in jelly. It consists of a papillary layer where the lymphatic vessels that carry the blood vessels are located, and a reticular layer containing collagen (collagen), which is related to wrinkles of the skin, and elastin (elastine), which is an elastic fiber that gives skin elasticity, and a substrate (water reservoir). do.

The subcutaneous fat layer is located between the dermis, muscles and bones and contains a large amount of fat. It forms the lowest layer of the skin and spreads evenly throughout the human body, absorbing external pressure and shock due to maintaining elasticity and buffering action. It not only prevents damage, but also prevents loss of body heat and keeps body temperature.

In recent years, as the interest in the skin is amplified regardless of age or gender, various devices related to skin care have been developed, and skin related hospitals and skin care procedures companies have been created.

Recently, the most widely known skin treatment method is a combination of a microneedle procedure and a conventional fractional laser procedure, which inserts a very fine needle (microneedle) into the skin to form a therapeutic column and at the same time a high frequency ( RF) causes local thermal damage in the skin to create micro-wounds to promote skin regeneration from the epithelium to the dermis, and these micro-wounds heal and induce cell growth factors to induce natural healing and This is how you maximize your play.

In general, when high frequency is applied to human tissue through a microneedle serving as an electrode for providing a high frequency, friction heat generated by high frequency is generated inside the tissue around the microneedle, thereby solidifying the collagen component in the dermis and simultaneously adding new collagen. It promotes formation, which causes wrinkles to spread and pores to shrink, improving skin.

The above skin treatment method is known to be very effective in the treatment of acne, acne scars, fine wrinkles, deep wrinkles and pore shrinkage, as it can regenerate collagen and elastic fibers by delivering high heat energy to a desired area without causing burns on the epidermis. . In addition, it facilitates blood circulation, promotes the burning of fat layer and activates the activity of the lymphatic system, thereby enabling the treatment of obesity.

The skin cosmetic treatment device which enables the skin treatment is generally provided with a main body having a high frequency oscillation part, a cable connected to one end of the main body, and coupled to the other end of the cable and electrically connected to the main oscillation part of the main body at the tip thereof. A plurality of microneedles inserted into the skin to provide a high frequency includes a handpiece that is integrally installed to be linearly movable.

The microneedles are connected to the printed circuit board connected to the frequency oscillation part by a cable at a predetermined interval, and some of them act as positive electrode electrodes and others as negative electrode electrodes. do.

However, the conventional skin beauty treatment device has a high frequency output as the microneedles move linearly immediately when the high frequency output is started by the operator. If the handpiece does not come into contact with the skin of the subject due to the carelessness of the operator, The output microneedles had a problem that the microneedle was not properly inserted into the skin of the subject.

Accordingly, the conventional skin care treatment device has a problem that the skin of the subject is damaged by heat, even if the microneedle is not properly inserted into the subject's skin because the handpiece is not properly contacted with the subject's skin. .

Then, the sound pressure generated from the on-driving of the pump 10 is transmitted to the handpiece portion 40 through the first valve body 20, at this time the needle cap portion formed at the tip of the handpiece portion 40 The adsorption part 50a of 50 is made to contact the skin of a subject.

Then, the suction port 50a sucks the skin by the sound pressure generated from the pump 10, in which case the pressure sensor 70 measures the sound pressure delivered to the handpiece part 40 and then Output to the controller 80.

In this case, when the sound pressure measured by the pressure sensor 70 is lower than the set reference sound pressure, the controller 80 determines that the suction port 50a of the needle cap 50 is not in contact with the skin of the subject. While stopping, driving of the motor 41 in the handpiece part 40 is stopped, which drives the motor 41 in a state in which the suction port 50a is not in contact with the skin. This is because when the microneedle 60 is moved forward through the fixed needle holder 53 through 41a), the microneedle 60 is not inserted into a predetermined depth, for example, 3 mm below the skin of the subject. .

On the other hand, when the sound pressure measured by the pressure sensor 70 reaches the set reference sound pressure, the controller 80 determines that the suction port 50a of the needle cap 50 is in contact with the skin of the subject. While driving the motor 41 in the handpiece part 40, the needle holder 53 moves forward while compressing the elastic body 55 by the moving shaft 41a of the motor 41. Accordingly, the microneedle 60 to which the needle holder 53 is fixed is able to be inserted into the skin of the subject with a predetermined depth.

Therefore, in the state where the suction of the skin by the suction port (50a) as described above, when the microneedle 60 is inserted into the skin to a predetermined depth, the control unit 80 generates a high frequency by oscillating the high frequency oscillator The high frequency generated in this way is transmitted to the microneedle 60 inserted into the skin, and a wound is generated in the skin by the high frequency heat transmitted to the microneedle 60, and the wound grows and the growth of cells. By inducing a factor, lifting is possible to maximize the natural healing and regeneration of the skin.

On the other hand, when the skin care treatment as described above is finished, the control unit 80 turns off the driving of the pump 10, while the sound pressure output terminal 22 and the sound pressure silencer 23 of the first valve body 20 The positive pressure input terminal 31 and the positive pressure output terminal 32 of the second valve body 30 communicate with each other.

That is, the first valve body 20 blocks the sound pressure input terminal 31 and the sound pressure output terminal 32 so that the sound pressure is transmitted to the handpiece part 40 through the first valve body 20. It will be blocked.

Then, the negative pressure applied to the needle cap 50 from the driving off of the pump 10 can be discharged to the pump 10 via the handpiece 40 and the second valve body 30, Accordingly, the suction port 50a of the needle cap portion 50 can be separated from the skin of the subject.

At this time, the elastic body 55 compressed in the needle cap 50 is moved back to the original position of the needle holder 53 through a restoring force, thereby enabling the following skin cosmetic procedures.
