SYSTEMS FOR ULTRASOUND TREATMENT
Embodiments provide an ultrasound treatment system. In some embodiments, the system includes a removable transducer module having an ultrasound transducer. In some embodiments, the system can include a hand wand and a control module that is coupled to the hand wand and has a graphical user interface for controlling the removable transducer module, and an interface coupling the hand wand to the control module. The interface may provide power to the hand wand or may transfer a signal from the hand wand to the control module. In some embodiments, the treatment system may be used in cosmetic procedures on at least a portion of a face, head, neck, and/or other part of a patient.
1 . An ultrasound system, comprising:
a sealed housing comprising an acoustic fluid and an acoustically transparent window,
an ultrasonic piezoelectric element configured to focus ultrasound at a depth below a skin surface with a treatment frequency, and
a movement mechanism configured to move the ultrasonic piezoelectric element to direct an ultrasonic treatment in a sequence of thermal lesions in a tissue.
