Abstract

Provided are dermatological medical devices and methods comprising a distal end for positioning at a region proximal a target therapeutic region of tissue, an output port at the distal end, an energy source that generates optical energy, which is output from the output port to the target therapeutic region of tissue, and a control device that controls the optical energy at the target therapeutic region of tissue for increasing a temperature of the target therapeutic region of tissue for a period of time to a temperature that is less than an injurying temperature and induces an expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) at the target therapeutic region of tissue.

Abstract

A self-aligning laser system that is capable of accurate placement for xyz coordinate and rotational alignment and registration of optical lens or lenses in relation to a laser diode without the need for active alignment. This approach reduces complexity, assembly time and costs without sacrifice to precision of alignment and optical performance.

Abstract

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.
