Summary for Patent: 10,039,910
Title:Plumber-like mass transport device for dermal and transdermal delivery of a liquid or solid composition
Abstract: A plunger-like mass transporting device and method for controllable transportation of a selected dosage of a solid or liquid composition having a body with a rigid enclosure, and a head, where the head is configured to attach to the body, the head having a stem and a housing. Further, the stem having a first end, the first end having an attachment means to attach to the rigid enclosure containing the body; and a second end, the second end having an attachment means to attach to the housing, and an applicator; wherein a flexible means is disposed on the stem, for providing an up position and a down position during an axial movement of the stem back and forth through the housing, wherein the housing contains the solid or liquid composition.
Inventor(s): Xu; Bai (Cupertino, CA)
Assignee: NANOMED SKINCARE, INC. (Cupertino, CA)
Application Number:14/668,648
Patent Claims:1. A mass transporting device for controllable transportation of a selected dosage of a solid or liquid composition comprising: a body having a rigid enclosure, and a head, the head configured to attach to the body, the head having a stem and a housing, the stem having: a first end; and a second end; wherein a flexible means is disposed on the stem, for providing an up position and a down position during an axial movement of the stem back and forth through the housing, wherein the housing contains the solid or liquid composition, wherein nanochips with solid structures are attached to an applicator at the second end of the stem to facilitate the mass transportation; wherein the housing provides a seal in conjunction with a flexible seal at the second end of the stem, thereby creating a vacuum when the stem is in the up position such that the vacuum forces the composition in the housing to be pulled through the flexible seal, the composition and the housing thereby configured to contact a patient's skin.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein the flexible means is a spring.

3. The device of claim 1, wherein the housing extends beyond the second end of the stem.

4. The device of claim 1, wherein the stem protrudes beyond the housing when the flexible means is in a compressed state.

5. The device of claim 1, wherein said flexible seal is a sealed ring.

6. The device of claim 1, wherein the head is removable.

7. The device of claim 1, wherein the head is configured to hold 0.01-30 ml of cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition.

8. The device of claim 1, wherein the nanochips are made of silicon.

9. The device of claim 1, wherein the device is configured to provide an up-down axial movement to the stem.

10. The device of claim 1, wherein the liquid or solid composition is selected from a group consisting of EGF, collagen, insulin, lidocaine, and botox.

11. The device of claim 1, wherein an attachment means is present on the housing, to attach the head to the body.

12. A method of delivery of a cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition to a skin of a patient using the device of claim 1 comprising: identifying an appropriate site on the skin of the patient; placing the device such that the applicator is placed proximately to the appropriate site on the skin of the patient; activating the device; and delivering the liquid or solid composition through the applicator on the skin of the patient.

13. The method of claim 12, further comprising creating nanopores on a portion of the skin of the patient for transdermal delivery of a cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition.

14. The method of claim 12, further comprising placing an occlusive layer over the appropriate site on the skin of the patient.

15. The method of claim 14, further comprising pumping the liquid composition using a pump to the occlusive layer for infusion of the composition through the patient's skin.
