Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TISSUE WHITENING BY APPLYING ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/151570
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
Tissue whitening system and method are provided. The system comprises an applicator unit comprising: a treatment surface comprising a plurality of treatment sites, each of the treatment sites being configured such that, when the applicator unit is in operation during a whitening treatment procedure, the treatment site is in contact with a whitening substance to apply treatment to a respective tissue portion via the whitening substance; and an electrode assembly configured to create a plurality of electromagnetic field regions within a treatment zone in the vicinity of the treatment surface, such that, when the applicator unit is in operation, the plurality of treatment sites are located in the plurality of the electromagnetic field regions thereby affecting the whitening substance at the treatment sites. The system further comprises an electromagnetic power source being in signal communication with the electrode assembly and configured to generate activation signals to operate the electrode assembly to create the electromagnetic field regions in at least some of the treatment sites; wherein each of the activation signals has a predetermined time-frequency profile to thereby apply an alternating electromagnetic field of the predetermined profile to the respective treatment site.
