Abstract

Phototherapy systems comprising a therapeutic lamp platform for radiant lamps such as LEDs disposed in an assembly including a reflective surface facing towards a patient and a plurality of light apertures substantially aligned with the LEDs for communicating lamp radiation from the lamps to a user. The lamps and associated circuitry are disposed so that the reflective surface is relatively smooth and seamless towards the patient. The walls have a malleable rigidity for flexible adjustability relative to the user, and the device is mounted to the user with a frame.

Claims (33)

1. A phototherapy device comprising:

a wearable therapeutic lamp platform including a plurality of radiant lamps emitting radiant energy at two or more wavelengths and a flexible reflective wall optically associated with the plurality of radiant lamps and disposed to communicate the radiant energy from the plurality of radiant lamps to a user treatment area, wherein the reflective wall is further formed according to a substantially parabolic bias for dispersing the radiant energy across the user treatment area and reflecting the radiant energy from the user treatment area back to the user treatment area, and wherein upon device receipt on a user the reflective wall parabolic bias expands to a form to match a size of the user treatment area; and

a frame supporting the therapeutic platform on the user and positioning the therapeutic lamp platform on the user, the frame positioning the reflective wall to cover an entire nose of the user, positioning the reflective wall towards the user treatment area and spacing the reflective wall from the user treatment area at a distance spaced from the nose of the user providing ventilation and clearance between the reflective wall and the nose of the user.

2. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible reflective wall has a substantially concave arcuate configuration relative to a face of the user.

3. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible reflective wall has a malleable rigidity for flexible adjustability relative to the user treatment area.

4. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame includes an eyeglass frame supporting the wearable therapeutic lamp platform.

5. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible reflective wall includes a smooth and seamless surface oriented towards the user treatment area.

6. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame is sized to space the lamp platform from the user treatment area at a desired position for proper therapeutic treatment.

7. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible reflective wall has a parabolic configuration in one or more directions.

8. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the therapeutic lamp platform is pivotally attached to the frame.

9. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of lamps emit radiant energy at two or more wavelengths associated with one or more of anti-aging therapy and acne treatment therapy.

10. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , further comprising an outer wall spaced from the flexible reflective wall and wherein the plurality of radiant lamps are interposed between the outer wall and the flexible reflective wall.

11. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the two or more wavelengths include at least two of red, blue and infrared.

12. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , further comprising an outer wall spaced from the flexible reflective wall and wherein at least a portion of the plurality of radiant lamps are interposed between the outer wall and the flexible reflective wall.

13. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame includes user contact points guiding the therapeutic lamp platform to a desired position.

14. The phototherapy device according to claim 1 , wherein the frame includes goggles.

15. A phototherapy device comprising:

a wearable therapeutic lamp platform including a plurality of radiant lamps emitting radiant energy at two or more wavelengths and a flexible reflective wall optically associated with the radiant lamps and disposed to communicate the radiant energy from the plurality of radiant lamps to a user treatment area, wherein the reflective wall is further formed to disperse the radiant energy across the user treatment area and reflect the radiant energy from the user treatment area back to the user treatment area, and wherein upon device receipt on a user the flexible reflective wall expands to a form to match a size of the user treatment area; and

a frame supporting the therapeutic platform on the user and positioning the therapeutic lamp platform on the user, the frame positioning the reflective wall to cover an entire nose of the user, positioning the reflective wall towards the user treatment area and spacing the reflective wall from the user treatment area at a distance spaced from the nose of the user providing ventilation and clearance between the reflective wall and the nose of the user.

16. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the frame includes an eyeglass frame supporting the wearable therapeutic lamp platform.

17. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the frame is sized to space the wearable therapeutic lamp platform from the user treatment area at a desired position for proper therapeutic treatment.

18. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the flexible reflective wall has a parabolic configuration in one or more directions.

19. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , further comprising an outer wall spaced from the flexible reflective wall and wherein the plurality of radiant lamps are interposed between the outer wall and the flexible reflective wall.

20. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , further comprising an outer wall spaced from the flexible reflective wall and wherein at least a portion of the plurality of radiant lamps are interposed between the outer wall and the flexible reflective wall.

21. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , further comprising an outer wall spaced from the flexible reflective wall and wherein the plurality of radiant lamps are mounted on the outer wall.

22. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the frame includes user contact points guiding the therapeutic lamp platform to a desired position.

23. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein at least a portion of the plurality of radiant lamps are recessed relative to the flexible reflective wall.

24. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the two or more wavelengths include at least two of red, blue and infrared.

25. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the flexible reflective wall includes a smooth and seamless surface directed towards the user treatment area.

26. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the frame includes an eyeglass frame.

27. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the frame includes goggles.

28. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the therapeutic lamp platform is pivotally attached to the frame.

29. The phototherapy device according to claim 15 , wherein the plurality of lamps emit radiation at two or more wavelengths associated with one or more of anti-aging and acne treatment therapy.
