Patents
Patent #5,425,355
Issued 1995
The purpose of this patent is to
provide a unique laser device that
allows minimal invasion to tissue
during surgery. Through the use of
this instrument, surgery can occur
away from the penetration point of
the skin, resulting in smaller incisions
shorter recovery and less post-operative
discomfort.
Patent #5,423,804
Issued 1995
With the use of the unique laser
device mentioned above, this patent
reflects the innovative concept of
separating tissue for the purpose
of operating on an area distant from
the site of entry. This tissue parting
technique is applicable for aesthetic
procedures such as browlifts, facelifts,
breast augmentation and abdominoplasties,
as well as various reconstructive
procedures.
