Abstract:
The systems and methods in accordance with the principles of the invention can promote correction of an aesthetic or functional defect in a target tissue. A method can include non-invasively applying a cooling agent to a surface of a target tissue; and cooling one or more tissue layers of said target tissue to a predetermined therapeutic temperature, wherein applying the cooling agent is performed such that cryoablation of said one or more layers of the target tissue does not occur. The system can include: a controller and a probe having a distal end configured for non-invasive contact with a surface of a target tissue to cool the target tissue based on treatment parameters.

Claim (Index 8):
The non-invasive system of  claim 7 , further comprising the probe, wherein the probe comprises:\n a treatment tip configured for non-invasive contact with a surface of a target tissue, the treatment tip comprising:\n an epithelium-contacting treatment surface; \n a cooling element in thermal communication with the epithelium-contacting treatment surface; and \n a heating element in thermal communication with the epithelium-contacting treatment surface, \n wherein the controller is further configured to be in communication with the cooling element and the heating element, and wherein the controller is further configured to control the cooling element and the heating element to cool or heat a first portion of the epithelium-contacting treatment surface while simultaneously heating or cooling a second portion of the epithelium-contacting treatment surface.
