Abstract

Claims (48)

1. A tip configured for use in a crystal-free skin treatment system, comprising:

a tip body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;

an outer member extending along a periphery along the distal end of the tip, the outer member defining an interior area; and

at least one inner member located within the interior area;

wherein:

the at least one inner member is configured to create a spiral flow pattern for fluid delivered within the interior area; and

wherein the proximal end of the tip is configured to couple to a handpiece assembly; and

wherein the at least one inner member is configured to abrade skin.

2. The tip of claim 1 , further comprising at least one vacuum opening configured to remove waste from the distal end of the tip.

3. The tip of claim 1 , further comprising at least one fluid delivery opening configured to receive fluid being transferred to a distal end of the tip.

4. The tip of claim 1 , further comprising at least one vacuum opening configured to remove waste from the distal end of the tip and at least one fluid delivery opening configured to receive fluid being transferred to a distal end of the tip.

5. The tip of claim 1 , wherein the at least one inner member extends continuously from a first end to a second end of the at least one inner member.

6. The tip of claim 1 , wherein the at least one inner member extends about a central point of the tip 1.5 or 2.5 times.

7. The tip of claim 1 , wherein a distance of the at least one inner member relative to a central point of the tip varies at least a portion of a length of the at least one inner member.

8. The tip of claim 1 , wherein the tip is disposable.

9. A tip configured for use in a skin treatment system, comprising:

a tip body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;

an outer member extending along a periphery along the distal end of the tip, the outer member defining an interior area; and

at least one inner member located within the interior area;

wherein:

the at least one inner member is configured to create a spiral or radial flow pattern for fluid delivered within the interior area;

the proximal end of the tip is configured to couple to a handpiece assembly; and

the at least one inner member extends about a central point of the tip 1.5 or 2.5 times.

10. The tip of claim 9 , further comprising at least one vacuum opening configured to remove waste from the distal end of the tip.

11. A tip configured for use in a skin treatment system, comprising:

a tip body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;

an outer member extending along a periphery along the distal end of the tip, the outer member defining an interior area;

at least one inner member located within the interior area, wherein the at least one inner member is able to abrade skin of a subject when the tip is moved relative to skin;

wherein the at least one inner member comprises a spiral-like pattern; and

at least one vacuum opening configured to receive fluid and debris being transferred away from the distal end of the tip;

wherein the proximal end of the tip is configured to couple to a handpiece assembly; and

wherein the at least one inner member extends about a central point of the tip 1.5 or 2.5 times.

12. A tip configured for use in a skin treatment system, comprising:

a tip body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;

an outer member extending along a periphery along the distal end of the tip, the outer member defining an interior area; and

at least one inner member located within the interior area;

wherein:

the at least one inner member is configured to create a spiral flow pattern for fluid delivered within the interior area;

wherein the proximal end of the tip is configured to couple to a handpiece assembly; and

wherein the at least one inner member is configured to abrade skin.

13. A tip configured for use in a skin treatment system, comprising:

a tip body comprising a proximal end and a distal end;

an outer member extending along a periphery along the distal end of the tip, the outer member defining an interior area; and

at least one inner member located within the interior area;

wherein:

the at least one inner member is configured to create a spiral flow pattern for fluid delivered within the interior area;

wherein the proximal end of the tip is configured to couple to a handpiece assembly; and

wherein the at least one inner member extends about a central point of the tip 1.5 or 2.5 times.
