SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING DERMATOLOGICAL IMPERFECTIONS

A system and method for treating skin comprise a heat generating device that increases a temperature of the target therapeutic region of tissue for a period of time to a temperature that is less than an injuring temperature and induces an expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) at the target therap...

Zusammenfassung:A system and method for treating skin comprise a heat generating device that increases a temperature of the target therapeutic region of tissue for a period of time to a temperature that is less than an injuring temperature and induces an expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) at the target therapeutic region of tissue; and an apparatus that outputs an application of a topical to the target therapeutic region of tissue at or about the same time as the output of the optical energy from the heat generating device, wherein the topical application combined with expressed HSPs produce an accelerated collagen generation and formation.
