Abstract:
1. A tissue treatment system, comprising: a handpiece having a chamber defining a treatment region in which target tissue may be positioned, the chamber being configured to elevate the target tissue in the treatment region relative to the surrounding tissue; a tool movably coupled to the handpiece so that a distal end of the tool is positionable in the treatment region for treating target tissue by extending the distal end of the tool through an aperture in the chamber; and a resilient seal positionable in the aperture in order to minimize leakage around the tool; and a guidance track operably connected to the handpiece, wherein the guidance track is configured to constrain a portion of the tool to move within a predetermined area such that the distal end of the tool moves within a subcutaneous region of a predetermined shape within the treatment region.
