Abstract

The device aides in the removal of tallow-like material and infected pus from skin pores supported by suction pressure. The device comprises two parts, a first permanent one (1), which serves for the generation of the suction pressure, and a second exchangeable one, which serves as treatment head comprising an optical window. Depending on the skin condition to be treated, different treatment heads can attach to the suction-generating device (1). The different treatment heads all have the following fundamental features, namely an enclosure comprising one opening (23)(33)(43) to be sealing towards the skin, one opening to attach the suction generating device (1), and an optical observation window (22)(32)(42) which can be planar or designed as a lens. If a layer of skin closes the pore, it will be opened by an integrated stationary needle, to which the skin will be lifted by the applied suction and by which it will finally be perforated.
