Abstract

A skin treatment device includes: an RF generator configured to generate an RF output; and an applicator being of a bipolar type and including an applicator body and needles, wherein the needles are arranged on a front surface of the applicator body, inserted into a dermal layer of the skin of a person to be treated and electrically connected to the RF generator to transmit the RF output, wherein, when the applicator is turned on, the applicator transmits a single or a plurality of RF pulses according to the RF output to the person to be treated, and the RF output is 5 W or more and 13 W or less, and a frequency of the RF output is greater than 1 MHz and less than 3 MHz, and a duration of the RF pulse according to the RF output is 50 ms or more and 100 ms or less.

Claims (18)

1. A skin pigmentation reducing device using a radio frequency (RF), the skin treatment device comprising:

a RF generator configured to generate an RF output; and

an applicator being of a bipolar type and including an applicator body and needles, wherein the needles are arranged on a front surface of the applicator body, configured to be inserted into a dermal layer of the skin of a person to be treated and electrically connected to the RF generator to transmit the RF output,

wherein, when the applicator is turned on, the applicator transmits a single or a plurality of RF pulses according to the RF output to the person to be treated,

a frequency of the RF output is only in a range of greater than 1 MHz and less than 3 MHz so as to reduce pigmentation of the skin according to the RF output,

the RF output is only in a range of 5W to 13W, wherein the range of 5W or more increases an amount of decrease in melanin and the range of 13W or less prevents a decrease in viability of melanocytes, and

a duration of the RF pulse according to the RF output is only in a range of 50 ms to 100 ms, wherein the range of 50 ms or more increases an amount of decrease in melanin and the range of 100 ms or less to prevent a decreases in viability of melanocytes.

2. The skin pigmentation reducing device of claim 1 , wherein the number of the needles are 16 or more and 49 or less, and the skin invasion depth of the needles is 1 mm or less.

3. The skin pigmentation reducing device of claim 1 , wherein a frequency of the RF output is 2 MHz.

4. A skin pigmentation reducing device using a radio frequency (RF), the skin treatment device comprising:

a RF generator configured to generate an RF output; and

an applicator being of a bipolar type and including an applicator body and needles, wherein the needles are arranged on a front surface of the applicator body, configured to be inserted into a dermal layer of the skin of a person to be treated and electrically connected to the RF generator to transmit the RF output,

wherein, when the applicator is turned on, the applicator transmits a single or a plurality of RF pulses according to the RF output to the person to be treated,

the RF output is only in a range of 5W to 13W,

a frequency of the RF output is only in a range of greater than 1 MHz and less than 3 MHz, and

a duration of the RF pulse according to the RF output is only in a range of 50 ms to 100 ms.

5. The skin pigmentation reducing device of claim 4 , wherein the number of the needles are 16 or more and 49 or less, and the skin invasion depth of the needles is 1 mm or less.

6. The skin pigmentation reducing device of claim 4 , wherein a frequency of the RF output is 2 MHz.
