Description
안면부에서, 각 부위에 인체접촉부를 적용한 예Example of applying the human body contact part to each part in the face part
정형외과나 재활의학의 분야에서는, 뼈의 불유합, 지연유합이나 통증완화를 위하여 초음파를 이용하거나 Piezoelectric effect 또는 Wolff's law에 근거한 이론을 이용한 전기자극치료를 오랜 기간동안 실제의 치료에 적용해 왔으며, 이의 효과는 실험적인 검증 외에도 충분한 임상적인 검증이 되었다. In the field of orthopedic and rehabilitation medicine, electrostimulation therapy using ultrasound or bone based theory based on Piezoelectric effect or Wolff's law has been applied to practical treatment for a long time. In addition to the experimental verification, the effect was sufficient clinical verification.
본 발명에서는 이러한 전기자극치료의 실험적 임상적 결과를 바탕으로 본 발명품을 고안하였다. In the present invention, the present invention was designed based on the experimental clinical results of the electrical stimulation treatment.
안면윤곽 교정을 위하여 시행되어 온 종래의 안면윤곽술(facial contouring)은, 기구를 이용하여 뼈를 자른 후 고정물로서 고정하거나 깎아 내는 방법, 또는 보형물을 삽입하는 방법이 주를 이루었다. 이러한 방법들은 모두 공통적으로, 연조 직의 절개와 박리과정이 불가피하여, 혈관손상으로 인한 심한 출혈이 발생하거나 신경손상을 동반하는 사례가 종종 있었다. 따라서, 수술의사나 일반인들에게 있어서, 뼈의 모양을 바꾸어 주는 안면윤곽술은 매우 위험한 치료법으로서 인식될 수 밖에 없었다. Conventional facial contouring, which has been performed for facial contouring, has mainly been a method of cutting bones using an instrument and fixing or cutting it as a fixture, or inserting an implant. In all these methods, incision and detachment of the soft tissue is inevitable, and there are often cases of severe bleeding due to vascular injury or accompanying nerve damage. Therefore, facial surgery, which changes the shape of bones, has been recognized as a very dangerous treatment for surgeons and the general public.
또한, 종래에 적용해 온 전기자극치료는 통증완화나 골형성촉진만을 목적으로 하였기 때문에,외형적 변화를 목적으로 하는, 조직의 두께나 면적을 증감시키는 방법 또는 장비가 없었다. In addition, since the conventional electrical stimulation treatment is only for pain relief and bone formation promotion, there is no method or equipment for increasing or decreasing the thickness or area of the tissue for the purpose of appearance change.
본 발명에서는 종래의 전기자극치료에 이용한 기술을 참고하였으나 다음과 같이 전혀 다른 방향으로 응용하였다. Although the present invention refers to a technique used in the conventional electric stimulation treatment, it was applied in a completely different direction as follows.
1. 안면부의 외형적인 변화를 목적으로 한다. 1. It aims to change the appearance of the face part.
따라서, 본 발명품에서는 자극의 종류, 강도 및 방향을 한 가지 또는 두 가지 이상으로 만들고 조절할 수 있어야 하며 자극생성부 및 인체접촉부에서는, 치료자가 목표하는 특정한 방향성을 갖는 자극이어야 하며 특정한 부위만을 국소적으로 자극한다. Therefore, in the present invention, the type, intensity, and direction of the stimulus should be made and controlled in one or two or more kinds. In the stimulus generator and the human body, the stimulus having a specific direction targeted by the therapist should be used locally. Stimulate
2. 종래의 치료법에서 부작용(adverse effect)으로서 인식하였던 부정적인 기능을 이용한다. 2. Use the negative function that was recognized as an adverse effect in conventional therapy.
예를 들어, 축소가 필요한 부위에는, 음전하로서 골형성 촉진을 목표로 하던 종래의 기술을 반대로 적용하여, 인위적인 양전하 또는 과도한 음전하를 제공하므 로서 원하는 부위의 골흡수나 골괴사를 유도한다. For example, to the site that needs to be reduced, the conventional technique aimed at promoting bone formation as a negative charge is applied in reverse, thereby providing artificial positive charge or excessive negative charge to induce bone absorption or bone necrosis of the desired site.
확대 또는 융기를 원하는 부위에는 종래의 기술과 유사한 방향으로서 초음파, 저주파나 적절한 양의 음전하를 전달하면 되지만, 특정한 모양 및 방향성을 갖도록 하여 치료자가 목표하는 특정한 부위만을 자극한다. Ultrasonic wave, low frequency or an appropriate amount of negative charge may be delivered to a portion where augmentation or swelling is desired in a similar direction to the prior art, but a specific shape and direction are stimulated to stimulate only a specific portion targeted by the therapist.
본 발명품은 크게 전원공급부, 중앙조작부, 자극생성부와 인체접촉부로 구성된다. The present invention is largely composed of a power supply unit, a central control unit, a magnetic pole generating unit and the human body contacting unit.
전원공급부는 거치형으로서 교류전원을 공급 받을 수 있도록 하거나, 축전지 또는 건전지를 이용하여 휴대형으로서 제작할 수 있다. 이 부분에서는 종래의 전기자극기와 크게 다를 바 없다. The power supply unit can be supplied as an AC power supply as a stationary type or can be manufactured as a portable type using a battery or a battery. This part is not much different from the conventional electric stimulator.
중앙조작부에서는 전술한 바와 같이 목적하는 바가 축소냐 확대냐에 따라 자극의 극성(polarity)을 선택할 수 있어야 하고, 자극의 강도를 한 가지 또는 두 가지 이상의 단계로 조절할 수 있어야 한다. As described above, the central control unit should be able to select the polarity of the stimulus according to whether it is to be reduced or enlarged, and the intensity of the stimulus may be adjusted in one or two or more steps.
자극생성부에서 역시 한 가지 또는 두 가지 이상 종류의 극(polarity)이나 강도의 자극이 만들어져야 한다. In the stimulus generator, one or more kinds of polarities or intensities should be made.
이 부분에서 중요한 점은 골흡수나 골괴사를 유도한다는 점이다. 예를 들어, 종래의 전기자극치료기처럼 골형성을 촉진해 주는 각종 전기자극이나 적정량의 음전하만을 일률적으로 발생하도록 하는 장치와는 달리, 그 반대의 양전하를 만들어 골흡수를 촉진하거나, 또는 과도한 음전하를 만들어 골괴사를 유도할 수 있는 기능을 추가할 뿐 아니라 이를 중요한 기능으로서 구성해야 한다는 것이다. 즉, 기존의 전기자극치료에서는 피하려만 했던 부작용(adverse effect)들이 본 발명에서는 긍정적으로 부각되는 기능이 된다. An important point in this area is that it induces bone resorption or bone necrosis. For example, unlike a conventional electric stimulation therapy device, unlike devices that generate only a single amount of negative charges uniformly, which promote bone formation, the opposite charges are generated to promote bone resorption or excessive negative charges. Not only adds the ability to induce bone necrosis, but also configures it as an important function. That is, the side effects (adverse effects) that were intended to be avoided in the conventional electrical stimulation therapy become a function that is positively highlighted in the present invention.
인체접촉부 역시 여러 형태로 제작할 수 있다. Human body contact portion can also be produced in various forms.
종래의 전기자극치료기에서는, 외형의 변화를 목적으로 하지 않았기 때문에, 종래의 인체접촉부는 특정한 방향성이 없고 간단하며 일률적인 형태였다. 그러나, 본 발명에서는 크게 다르다. 외형적인 변화를 주 목적으로 하고, 목표하는 축소 및 확대 방향이 각기 존재하므로, 대상 환자마다 또는 인체의 각 부위마다 고유의 외형이 서로 상이하더라도 모든 환자와 부위 각각에 있어서 접촉부의 모양이 잘 들어 맞고, 목적하는 축소나 확대의 방향에 따라 자극의 흐름이 특정한 방향성을 갖도록 고안되어야 한다. 예를 들어, 변형이 가능토록 유연성 있는 재질의 패드를 부위별 또는 크기별로 제작하거나 여러 형태 및 크기의 정형된 접촉부를 다양하게 제작한다. In the conventional electric stimulation therapy device, since the purpose of appearance change was not aimed at, the conventional human body contact part was simple, uniform, without specific orientation. However, the present invention is greatly different. The main purpose is to change the appearance, and the direction of reduction and enlargement, respectively, exists, so that the shape of the contact part fits well in every patient and each part even if the unique appearance is different from each patient or each part of the human body. Therefore, the flow of stimulus should be designed to have a specific direction depending on the direction of reduction or enlargement desired. For example, pads made of flexible materials to be deformed can be manufactured by region or size, or variously shaped contacts can be manufactured in various shapes and sizes.
본 장치의 구성에 있어서는, 전술한 구성부들을 각각 별도로 분리시킬 수도 있지만, 다음의 구성부들을 다음과 같이 여러 형태로 조합할 수 있다. In the structure of this apparatus, although the above-mentioned components may be separately separated, the following components can be combined in various forms as follows.
1. 전원공급부, 중앙조작부의 일체형 또는 분리형 1. Integral or separate type of power supply, central control unit
2. 전원공급부, 중앙조작부, 자극생성부의 일체형 또는 분리형 2. Integral type or separate type of power supply, central control part, and magnetic pole generating part
3. 자극생성부, 인체접촉부의 일체형 또는 분리형 3. Integral or separate type of stimulus generating part and human body contact part
또한, 휴대성과 착용성을 강화하기 위하여 인체접촉부 자체가 영구자석이거나 인체접촉부 내에 영구자석을 포함하므로서 자체적으로도 자기장을 가질 수 있도록 제작할 수도 있다. In addition, in order to enhance portability and wearability, the body contact part itself may be manufactured to have a magnetic field by itself as it includes a permanent magnet or a permanent magnet in the body contact part.
성형외과적 영역에 있어서 윤곽술(contouring)은, 항상 수술이 전제되었고, 크고 작은 부작용 및 후유증이 뒤따르는 사례가 많았다. 특히, 안면윤곽술(facial contouring)에서의 뼈 수술(bone surgery)는 가장 공격적이고 위험한 수술이라 할 수 있었다. 그러나, 본 발명품으로서 진정한 비수술적 안면윤곽술이 가능하다면, 고통이 없으며 종래의 부작용 및 후유증을 피할 수 있고 출혈이 없는 안전한 안면윤곽술이 가능하게 된다.In the plastic surgery area, contouring has always been a premise and many cases have large and small side effects and sequelae. In particular, bone surgery in facial contouring is the most aggressive and dangerous operation. However, if true non-surgical facial contouring is possible as the present invention, painless, conventional side effects and sequelae can be avoided, and safe facial contouring without bleeding is possible.
