Skincare devices and methods of use
An example skincare device includes a main body having a first side, a second side, an intermediate portion, a groove, a light source, a motor, a temperature control unit, and a user control configured to control one or more of the light source, motor, and temperature control unit. The skincare device can provide heat, cool, light, and/or vibrational therapy to a user's skin.
1. A skincare device configured to treat the skin of a user, comprising:
a main body having a first side having a first surface, a second side substantially opposite the first side having a second surface, and an intermediate portion extending from the first side to the second side having a third surface, the main body being substantially disc-shaped;
a light source disposed within the main body and configured to emit light to treat said skin, the light source configured to emit the light adjacent the first side;
a motor disposed within the main body and configured to produce pulsations of said skincare device;
a temperature control unit disposed within the main body, the temperature control unit configured to generate heat to treat said skin and transfer the heat to the first side;
a user control disposed on the intermediate portion, the user control configured to operate the light source, the motor, and the temperature control unit; and
a power source disposed within the main body, said power source comprising a lithium-ion battery;
wherein the first side and the intermediate portion cooperatively define a groove into which the light source emits the light.
2. The skincare device of claim 1 , wherein the light source comprises light-emitting diode (“LED”) lights.
3. The skincare device of claim 2 , wherein the light source is configured to emit red light.
4. The skincare device of claim 3 , wherein the light source is configured to emit green light.
5. The skincare device of claim 4 , wherein the light source is configured to emit blue light.
6. The skincare device of claim 1 , wherein the second surface defines a set of protrusions.
7. The skincare device of claim 1 , further comprising a sensor disposed within the main body configured to detect the temperature of the skincare device and shut down the skincare device in the event that it exceeds a certain temperature.
8. The skincare device of claim 1 , further comprising a controller disposed within the main body and an interface operatively connected to the controller, the interface being configured to transmit information to a mobile phone.
9. The skincare device of claim 1 , wherein the third surface is comprised of silicone.
10. The skincare device of claim 9 , wherein a portion of the second surface is comprised of silicone and is integrally formed with the third surface.
11. A skincare device configured to treat the skin of a user, comprising:
a main body having a first side having a first surface, a second side substantially opposite the first side having a second surface, and an intermediate portion extending from the first side to the second side having a third surface, the first side and the intermediate portion defining an annular groove extending toward the second side, the second surface defining a set of protrusions comprised of metal, the third surface comprising silicone, the main body being substantially disc-shaped;
a light source disposed within the main body and configured to emit light to treat said skin, the light source configured to emit the light adjacent the first side, the light source comprising an LED light;
a motor disposed within the main body configured to produce pulsations of said skincare device;
a temperature control unit disposed within the main body, the temperature control unit configured to generate heat to treat said skin and to transfer the heat to the first side, the temperature control unit configured to cool the first side of the main body in order to treat said skin;
a controller disposed within the main body and an interface operatively connected to the controller, the interface being configured to transmit information; and
a user control disposed on the intermediate portion, the user control configured to operate the light source, the motor, and the temperature control unit;
wherein the first side and the intermediate portion cooperatively define a groove into which the light source emits the light.
12. The skincare device of claim 11 , wherein light source is configured to emit red, green, and blue light.
