The present invention provides a very simple easily administered skin treatment process for (1) the
removal of superficial epidermal skin cells in the human skin (2) the reduction or removal of
unwanted hair and (3) the mitigation of skin conditions such as acne and seborrhea. A contaminant
having a high absorption at at least one wavelength of light is topically applied to a section of the
surface of the skin. A preferred contaminant is a mixture of 20% by weight of one micron graphite
particles in mineral oil. Graphite is a very strong absorber of 1.06 micron light produced by the
Nd:YAG laser. Portions of the contaminant are forced to infiltrate into spaces between the
superficial epidermal cells, into hair ducts in the skin and into and/or adjacent to sebaceous glands.
The skin section is illuminated with short laser pulses at the matching wavelength, so as to impact
sufficient energy to the contaminant to cause explosion in the contaminant. The energy released in
the course of the explosions may blow off layers of dead skin cells and/or destroy tissue responsible
for hair growth and/or sebum production.
US Patent No: 6043204
Body cleansing composition providing protection against sunburn after rinsing
Disclosed in a body cleansing composition providing upon a single application protection against
sunburn measured by Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of at least 15 as applied and SPF of at least 4,
and preferably at least 5, after rinsing, consisting essentially of water; at icast onc first sunscreen
compound which is a paramethoxycinnamate ester, and at least one second sunscreen compound
able to absorb at least 50% of incident radiation at wave lengths from 290 to 320 nanometers; a
combination of at least two surface active agents including a first anionic agent which can be an
alkyl sulfate salt or an alkoxylated alkyl sulfate salt, and a second agent which can be nonionic,
anionic or zwitterionic; at least one hydroxyethylated organic nitrogen compound fixative to
enhance retention of SPF on the user's skin selected from the group consisting of N-(2hydroxyethyl)lactamide
and a polymeric quaternary ammonium salt having a plurality of
quaternary ammonium groups and at least one 2-hydroxyethyl group; and at least one additive
selected firom the group consisting of non-aggressive volatile organic liquids boiling within the
range of 15 to 60.o slashed.C, water-immiscible non-volatile organic carriers, and preservatives
able to retard microbial spoilage, whereby protection against sunburn is imparted to a person in
need thereof in a single application.
US Patent No: 6045575
