Title: Method and apparatus for skin resurfacing
Inventor: AUSTEN WILLIAM G
IPC: A45D44/00
Filed: 2012-01-27
Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of method and apparatus are provided for resurfacing of skin that includes formation of a plurality of small holes, e.g., having widths less than about 1 mm or 0.5 mm, using a mechanical apparatus, thus avoiding generation of thermal damage as occurs with conventional laser resurfacing procedures and devices. The holes formed can be well-tolerated by the skin, and can exhibit shorter healing times and less swelling than conventional resurfacing procedures. The apparatus includes one or more needles adapted to remove a small portion of tissue when inserted into and withdrawn from the skin. The fractional surface coverage of the holes can be between about 0.1 and 0.7, or between about 0.2 and 0.5. The exemplary method and apparatus can produce cosmetic effects such as increases in collagen content, epidermal thickness, and dermal/epidermal junction undulations in the skin.

Title: Method for controlling access to visual media in a social network
Inventor: DAGAEFF THIERRY
IPC: G06Q90/00
Filed: 2012-04-27
Abstract: A method for controlling access to a visual medium in a social network comprising user units connected to a social network site server associated to a database and a to a distorted visual medium server storing visual media posted by users of the social network. A visual medium is selected by a posting user on a user unit and made available to at least one entitled user of said social network. The posting user defines a list of entitled users to be entitled to access the visual medium, said list of entitled users comprising at least one identifier identifying at least one entitled user, said identifier being associated to a parameter defining an access level to the selected visual medium. The selected visual medium is uploaded to the distorted visual medium server in association with the list of entitled users. The distorted visual medium server stores the visual medium in a memory and applies a distortion effect so as to obtain at least one distorted visual medium degraded according to a predefined degradation level. An entitled user identified on the list receives, from the distorted visual medium server, the visual medium distorted according to a degradation level corresponding to the parameter defining the access level associated to the identifier of the entitled user. The distortion effect applied on the original visual medium preferably consists of a scrambling operation performed on the original visual medium to obtain a scrambled visual medium. The access level defines the rights of a user for descrambling the scrambled visual medium into a reconstructed visual medium. Depending on the user access level, the reconstructed visual medium can be a partially descrambled visual medium or a fully descrambled visual medium according to the user access level.
