Abstract

A minutely controlled dermabrasion hand piece includes a main hand piece body for holding the hand piece by a user, a treatment head to provide negative pressure to a treated tissue and a vacuum tube to provide negative pressure to the treatment head through the main hand piece body. The main hand piece body includes at least one opening to control the supply of negative pressure to the treatment head. The opening is blockable by the user holding the hand piece.

Claims (20)

1. A minutely controlled dermabrasion hand piece, the hand piece comprising:

a main hand piece body for holding the hand piece by a user, the main hand piece body including a bendable articulation section that comprises a peripheral/annular accordion joint having a corrugated pattern to enable bending of the articulation section, the accordion joint including alternating annular rigid nodes and annular flexible grooves;

a treatment head to provide negative pressure to a treated tissue through an opening of the treatment head when the opening of the treatment head is placed against the treated tissue; and

a vacuum tube to provide negative pressure to the treatment head through the main hand piece body,

wherein the main hand piece body comprises at least one opening that is configured to be selectively blocked and opened by the user to control the supply of negative pressure to the treatment head.

2. The hand piece of claim 1 , wherein the treatment head comprises an abrasive layer.

3. The hand piece of claim 2 , wherein the treatment head comprises a gap through which negative pressure is providable to the treated tissue, the gap being around the abrasive layer between inner perimeter of the head and outer perimeter of the abrasive layer.

4. The hand piece of claim 1 , wherein the treatment head comprises a flexible rim adaptable to the shape of the treated surface.

5. The hand piece of claim 1 , wherein said main hand piece body comprises an internal tube through which the negative pressure is passable, and wherein said internal tube comprises a steerable section to steer said internal tube in accordance with the bending of the bendable articulation section of the main hand piece body.

6. The hand piece of claim 5 , wherein the steerable section of the internal tube is a bendable section comprising an annular accordion joint.

7. The hand piece of claim 5 , wherein the steerable section of the internal tube comprises a spheroidal joint and a socket joint.

8. A method for minutely controlling a dermabrasion hand piece, the method comprising:

providing a dermabrasion hand piece comprising:

a main hand piece body for holding the hand piece by a user, the main hand piece body including a bendable articulation section that comprises a peripheral/annular accordion joint having a corrugated pattern to enable bending of the articulation section, the accordion joint including alternating annular rigid nodes and annular flexible grooves;

a treatment head to provide negative pressure to a treated tissue through an opening of the treatment head when the opening of the treatment head is placed against the treated tissue; and

a vacuum tube to provide negative pressure to the treatment head through the main hand piece body,

wherein the main hand piece body comprises at least one opening that is configured to be selectively blocked and opened by user to control the supply of negative pressure to the treatment head; and

selectively blocking and opening the at least one opening to control supply of negative pressure to said treatment head of said dermabrasion hand piece.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein said treatment head comprises a flexible rim adaptable to the shape of the treated surface, and wherein the method comprises adapting the shape of said treatment head to the shape of the treated surface.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method comprises controlling an angle created by said articulation section.
