AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The technical feature described in this patented formula describes how certain types of waves can cause cell deterioration when they hit bone or other hard objects during physical activity such as running water splash hitting them with force. These waves are called impact pulses because they have strong compression caused by sudden changes made over time due to external forces like falling rocks or collisions between players' shoes. By optimizing these waves near where there may harm healthy organs (such as arteries) nearby, we aimed towards prevention of injury from excess body weight-bearings associated with exercise activities.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technology involves different ways to remove unwanted material (fat) from areas where it's hardest). One way uses heat-based techniques like laser ablation while another approach called liposuresis focuses onto specific parts of the area instead of removing them completely. Another technique described in U. S. Patents includes applying strong electromagnetic radiation through an applicator into affected regions, followed by aspirating fluid containing tiny particles removed therefrom.

Embodiment Construction

[0023]FIG. 1 shows a device for applying essentially focused shock waves to adipose tissue, in accordance with the invention. An applicator 201, to be described in detail below, contains a source of acoustic waves. The applicator 201 is adapted to be applied to the skin of an individual 203 in the treated region. The applicator 201 is connected to a control unit 101 via a harness 202. The control unit 101 includes a power source 102 and control panel 103. The power source 102 generates an electrical pulse in the applicator 201 via wires in the harness 202. The control unit 101 has an input device such as the control panel 103 that allows an operator to input selected values of parameters of the treatment such as the shock wave intensity. The control unit 101 optionally contains a processor 104 for monitoring and controlling various functions of the device.

[0024]FIG. 2 shows one embodiment of the applicator 201 in detail. The applicator 201 has a housing 215. The interior of the housing
