Reflective ultrasound technology for dermatological treatments

This invention describes a system that uses ultrasound waves and a special reflective surface to treat skin for cosmetic purposes. It aims to create multiple treatment areas at different depths under the skin simultaneously, helping with issues like wrinkles or skin tightening. The claims specifically narrow the reflective surface to a parabolic reflector.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in computational acoustics. Designing and optimizing the parabolic reflector for precise multi-zone energy delivery is now more feasible.

Status: ExpiredProtection ended and was never renewed
How hard to build: SpecializedPrecision ultrasound, custom reflector, regulated medical device.
