Abstract:
Treatment systems, methods, and apparatuses for improving the appearance of skin or other target regions are described as well as for providing for other treatments. Aspects of the technology are directed to improving the appearance of skin by tightening the skin, improving skin tone or texture, eliminating or reducing wrinkles, increasing skin smoothness, or improving the appearance of cellulite. Treatments can include cooling a surface of a patient's skin and detecting at least one freeze event in the cooled skin. The treatment system can continue cooling the patient's skin after the freeze event(s) are detected so to maintain at least a partially frozen state of the tissue for a period of time.

Claim (Index 11):
A treatment method for improving the appearance of skin by tightening the skin, improving skin tone and texture, eliminating or reducing wrinkles, increasing skin smoothness, or improving the appearance of cellulite, the treatment method comprising:\n removing heat from a treatment site of a subject using a cooling device applied to the subject's skin to reduce a temperature thereof to no lower than \u221240 degrees C. to produce a cold shock response for affecting proteins that improve the appearance of the skin at the treatment site.
