Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
presenting, by a server computer system to a first remote computing device operated by a first user, a user interface for customizing settings of a treatment control engine of a personal care device operated by a second user;
receiving, by the server computer system from the first remote computing device, user-specified settings for the personal care device, the personal care device having a human-machine interface device and at least one computer-controlled component comprising a usage authorization engine and a treatment control engine, wherein the user-specified settings are based on user input received by the first remote computing device via the user interface for customizing settings of the treatment control engine of the personal care device, and wherein the first remote computing device is not in direct communication with the personal care device;
obtaining, by the server computer system, operational parameters for the personal care device based at least in part on the user-specified settings;
determining, by the server computer system, that the second user has accepted a request to allow the first user to modify operational parameters of the personal care device;
transmitting, by the server computer system, the operational parameters to a second remote computing device in communication with the personal care device, wherein the operational parameters are configured to modify at least one operational characteristic of the treatment control engine of the at least one computer-controlled component of the personal care device; and
obtaining, by the server computer system, measurements of an environmental condition, wherein the operational parameters for the personal care device are based at least in part on the measurements of the environmental condition,
wherein the treatment control engine is configured to detect actuation of the human-machine interface device and activate a treatment application device in accordance with the at least one modified operational characteristic.
