One component housed within the cavity 12 of the body 10 is the power supply 60 . A power supply 60 is operatively connected to the mask apparatus 2 and provides power to the various components, such as the light source 100 and other components described below, so that they can function properly and efficiently. In the illustrated embodiment, the power source 60 consists of a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, and the lithium-ion battery can be charged through a charging port, such as the DC outlet 68 of the best example of FIG. 5 . The power source 60 is housed in a panel 62 that defines a recess 64 in which the battery 60 is stored. The panel 62 helps conduct and/or remove heat from the temperature control element 110 (described below) to one or both of the first side 20 and the second side 30 . The panel 62 also fixes the power supply 60 in the mask device 2 . Additionally, as discussed above, the panel 62 includes an upper portion 66 that defines at least a portion of the first side 22 , including the surface 22 . An experienced technician will be able to select the appropriate power supply and panel for a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the various components housed within the mask meter and the size required for the mask meter. In other embodiments, the power source may include one, two, three, or more replaceable dry cells. In various embodiments, the power source may consist of a lithium polymer battery or accumulator. In various embodiments, the panels may be constructed of any suitable material, including aluminum, aluminum alloys, zinc alloys, copper, stainless steel, gold, silver, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In further embodiments, the light source may emit one or more of red, blue, pink, and/or green light to indicate that the power source is charging and/or remains fully charged; in one such example, the light source Emits a white light that rotates in a circular motion through the groove to show that the device is charging, and a fixed purple light from the device indicates that the device is fully charged. In other embodiments, a portion of the panel may be coated with a thermal film or paste that helps protect the power supply from the heat generated by the mask meter in use. In various embodiments, the diameter of the upper portion and/or surface of the panel may be between about 2 centimeters and about 15 centimeters, between about 4 centimeters and about 12 centimeters, between about 6 centimeters and about 9 centimeters.

The power supply 60 provides power to the controller 70 , which is also housed within the cavity 12 defined by the body 10 . The controller 70 is operatively connected to any one of the light source 100, the motor 80 and the temperature control element 110, provides instructions to each of these components and controls these components. The controller 70 is activated by a user control 72 disposed on the intermediate portion 40 and operatively connected with the controller 70 . The controller 70 in the illustrated embodiment includes a printed circuit board assembly ("PCBA") and associated circuitry; however, in other embodiments, the controller may include any component suitable for controlling the mask meter, such as a printed circuit board ("PCBA"). "PCB") or any other suitable computer or mechanism to communicate information. Additionally, the controller 70 may be operably connected to the interface 90 to allow it to communicate with a second device (described in more detail below).

The user controls 72 consist of buttons which, when pressed, activate the mask meter 2 . Repeated and/or specific types of use of user controls 72 may allow the user to cycle through various modes of operation of mask meter 2 (described in greater detail below). For example, potential vibration modes that may be activated by user controls 72 may include low frequency modes, high frequency modes, random modes, and variable frequency modes. In addition, the user may select various lighting modes, heating modes and cooling modes through the user controls 72 . An experienced technician will be able to appropriately place the user control on the device and configure the user control according to a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the number of patterns required and the materials that make up the body. In other embodiments, the user controls may be located on either side of the body. In various embodiments, the mask meter may include zero, two, three or more user controls. In further embodiments, the user controls may include separate user controls for controlling individual components and/or actions.

The motor 80 is disposed within the body 10 and is operatively connected to the power source 60 and the controller 70 . The motor 80 is provided within the frame 82 within the main body 10 . The frame 82 is used to support the motor 80 and keep the motor 80 fixed at a specific position inside the main body 10 , and to provide structural support to the mask 2 . Specifically, the frame 82 includes an arm 84 that defines a slot 86 for positioning the motor 80 . Arm 84 (and slot 86 ) extends from body 83 of frame 82 to second side 30 and enables an inner surface (not shown) of arm 84 to secure motor 80 and hold it in place. The motor 80 is substantially disposed adjacent to the first side surface 20 , so its vibration can be effectively transmitted to the user through the first side surface 20 . At least a portion of the frame 82, including its proximal end 88, is constructed substantially of clear plastic. Accordingly, the proximal end 88 of the frame 82 may allow light generated by the light source 100 to pass through the proximal end 88 and the surface 89 of the frame 82 relatively unimpeded.

A controller 70 powered by the power supply 60 provides commands to the motor 80 . In various embodiments, a high or low frequency motor 80 may be used to generate pulses that cause the mask to vibrate. The motor 80 in this embodiment is used to generate a series of frequencies that can provide beneficial treatment to the skin. The motor 80 provides vibrations to the skin when the mask 2, particularly the first side 20, is applied to the body, such as the face or neck. An experienced technician will be able to select the appropriate motor, frame, and vibration range based on a variety of considerations, including the size and shape of the mask meter and the vibration intensity required by the device. Examples of suitable vibrational frequency ranges include vibrational frequencies between about 80 hertz ("Hz") and about 200 hertz, vibrational frequencies between about 100 hertz and about 180 hertz, and vibrations between about 120 hertz and about 150 hertz frequency. In another embodiment, the mask meter may include two or more motors. In another embodiment, the motors may be randomly arranged. In other embodiments, the frame may be omitted. In various embodiments, the frame may not include slots or arms, but may contain the device entirely within its body. In some embodiments, there may be more than one motor; in embodiments involving multiple motors, the motors may differ from each other in frequency output.

Controller 70 also controls interface 90 , which is a component of controller 70 . The interface 90 allows the mask device 2 to communicate with a second device, such as a personal computer, tablet computer, cell phone or other electronic device (not shown). Using the interface 90, the mask device 2 can send information to other devices so that other devices can collect data related to the use of the mask device 2. Additionally, the mask device 2 may receive control signals from another device that may instruct the mask device 2 to turn on or off, increase or decrease speed, switch to a different vibration, lighting, heating or cooling mode, and/or switch to The desired mode preset by the user or other instructions recommended by other devices. The interface 90 may be a wired interface or a wireless interface, such as a wireless transceiver that transmits control signals between the mask meter 2 and the second device. An experienced technician will be able to select the appropriate interface based on a variety of considerations, including the device with which the mask meter will communicate and the size and shape of the subject. In some embodiments, the interface is a radio frequency ("RF") transceiver for sending and receiving radio frequency signals between the mask meter and other devices. An example of a radio frequency transceiver that can be used is a low power 2.4 GHz radio frequency transceiver. In various embodiments, the mask device may also include an antenna for transmitting and receiving signals between the mask device and other devices. In these examples, the interface may wirelessly transmit information between the mask meter and another device using Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, infrared, laser, visible light, acoustic energy, or other methods. In another embodiment, the controller may communicate with another device to confirm the authenticity of the mask meter, described more fully as shown in FIG. 30 below.

In some embodiments, the mask meter is connected to the network through the second device. In other embodiments, the mask meter may connect directly to a wireless network or cellular telephone network, and may connect to the second device in any of the described ways. Therefore, the mask meter can be controlled from a personal computer, tablet, mobile phone or other suitable electronic device. Figure 10 shows an example of such a design.

10 is a network diagram illustrating components of a mask meter (eg, mask meter 2 ), according to an example embodiment. In this embodiment, the facial mask device includes a controller, such as the controller 70; a motor, such as the motor 80; a light source, such as the light source 100; a temperature control element, such as the temperature control element 110; and an interface, such as the interface 90. As mentioned above, the mask device can be connected to the Internet or other electronic device via a PC, tablet, mobile phone, or can be directly connected to a wireless network or a mobile phone network. Therefore, the mask meter can be controlled by a personal computer, tablet computer, mobile phone or other electronic device through the above-mentioned mechanism, and transmit and/or receive data with the personal computer, tablet computer, mobile phone or other electronic device through the above-mentioned mechanism. The interface can be wired or wireless, and can include any of those described above. An experienced technician will be able to determine how to properly connect the mask meter and other equipment based on a variety of considerations, including the desirability of doing so and the connection of the equipment will be beneficial. In some embodiments, the mask meter may not include an interface and, therefore, may not communicate with other devices. In various embodiments, the mask meter can only transmit data to other devices; it may not receive any data and cannot be controlled by the other devices in the described embodiments.

The data that the mask device communicates with one or more connections of a personal computer, tablet computer, mobile phone or other electronic device may include, for example, the number of times the mask device is used, the duration of use of the mask device for various purposes, the user's preferred mask device settings. and various other types of information related to the use of the mask.

As mentioned above, the mask device 2 also includes a temperature control element 110 , which in the illustrated embodiment is operably connected to the power source 60 and the controller 70 . Therefore, the temperature control element 110 receives power from the power source 60 and receives operation instructions from the controller 70 . In various embodiments, any suitable materials and/or components may make up the temperature control element, examples of suitable materials that may make up the temperature control element include copper alloys, polyimides, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In some embodiments, the temperature control element may consist of a positive temperature coefficient thermistor.

The temperature control element 110 is substantially box-shaped, and is disposed adjacent to the temperature exchange member 112 within the cavity 12 of the main body 10 . The temperature exchange member 112 helps to secure the temperature control element 110 in the relevant position within the mask device 2 . The temperature control element 110 is also positioned sufficiently adjacent to the first side 20 so that its heat absorption and/or release can easily flow toward and/or away from the upper portion 66 of the panel 62 . In the illustrated embodiment, the temperature exchanging member 112 may act as a heat sink, helping to prevent overheating of the mask 2; however, in other embodiments, any suitable element or component may constitute the temperature exchanging member. An experienced technician will be able to select appropriate temperature control elements and appropriate temperature exchange components for a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the materials of composition of the first and second sides of the body and the desired function of the mask meter. In various embodiments, one or more heat sinks may be used with temperature exchange components. In alternative embodiments, the temperature exchange member may be composed of any suitable material, including copper, copper alloys, aluminum, diamond, stainless steel, ceramics, and other suitable materials. In various other embodiments, the temperature control elements and temperature exchange components and their respective components may have any suitable shape, including rows of spheres, boxes, ovals, pyramids, circles, triangles, rectangles, and/or arcs of circles shape. In various embodiments, the temperature exchange member may be composed of one or more of aluminum alloys, ceramics, stainless steel, and/or other suitable materials.

The temperature control element 110 can absorb heat and/or release heat from the first side 20 and the second side 30 of the mask device 2 after receiving an instruction from the controller 70 . The temperature control element 110 is composed of different types of conductors, which enables it to operate at the respective device's level according to the instructions made by the controller 70 based on the various types of electronic signals sent out and/or the electric fields generated by the various components of the mask meter 2. The ends absorb or release heat. This allows the portion of the temperature control element near the end of the first side 20 and the end of the second side 30 to absorb and/or release heat as instructed by the controller 70 based on the current direction of the various components provided by the mask meter 2 .

In operation, power source 60 and controller 70 provide current, power and direction of transfer to temperature control element 110 through electrical connections between power source 60 and controller 70 and temperature control element 110 . Upon receiving the command and current, the temperature control element 110 can absorb heat from its distal end 109 and release it through its proximal end 108 onto the first side 20, which makes the first side 20 warmer than it is in the mask meter 2 Temperature when not operating. Such a release provides the user with a heat treatment. The temperature control element 110 can also absorb heat through its proximal end 108 and transfer heat from the first side 20 through its distal end 109 , in particular through the temperature exchange member 112 . This keeps the first side 20 at a lower temperature than it would be when the mask device 2 is not operating (or in some embodiments, when heat is released through the end of the first side to provide thermal therapy). In this way, the user is provided with cold compress therapy.

In more detail, when the user needs heat treatment, the temperature control element 110 absorbs heat through its distal end 109 and releases the heat through its proximal end 108 towards the adjacent panel 62, and then conducts and transfers the heat to the first The surface of one side 20 . Conversely, when the user desires a cold compress, the temperature control element 110 absorbs heat through its proximal end 108 and releases said heat through its distal end 109 towards its adjacent temperature exchange member 112 . By transferring heat from the first side 20, the temperature of the first side 20 is made lower than when the mask device 2 is not in use (and/or when thermal therapy is being provided). In either instance, the user may directly or indirectly contact the first side 20 by using the cosmetic accessory as an intermediary between the skin and the mask device 2 .

In various embodiments, the temperature control element may heat the surface of the first side to a temperature between about 70 degrees Fahrenheit (“°F”) and about 150°F, or between about 75°F and about 125°F time, or between about 80°F and about 100°F. The temperature control element may cool the temperature of the surface of the first side to between about 30°F and about 80°F, or between about 40°F and about 70°F, or between about 50°F and about 60°F between. In alternative embodiments, the temperature control element may also be in direct contact with or directly adjacent to the first side and/or the panel. In some embodiments, the temperature control element may include one or both of N-type semiconductors and P-type semiconductors, which may form a mechanism for absorbing and/or releasing heat from the proximal and distal ends of the temperature control element.

The temperature exchanging member 112 is used to safely and properly dispose of the excess heat generated by the temperature control element 110 when the mask device 2 provides heat and cold compress treatments. One way it can do this is by transferring the heat generated by the temperature control element 110 to the surface 32 of the second side 30, which consists of a portion of the temperature exchange member 112, as described above. As previously mentioned, the raised set 34 of the second side 30 provides additional surface area (relative to a flat surface) to transfer the heat from the first side 20 in the form of air or fluid more quickly and efficiently. For example, this can be done while providing a cold compress.

An experienced technician will be able to select the appropriate temperature control element for a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the side of the mask to be treated with heat or cold, and the shape and size of the device. In other embodiments, the temperature control element may be used to heat the second side of the body for use with human skin instead of the first side. In various embodiments, the temperature control element may transfer heat from the body through its first side rather than its second side. In various other embodiments, the temperature control element may distribute heat to the intermediate portion.

In an alternate embodiment, the mask device may only cool the first side of the mask device and heat only the second side of the mask device. In such an embodiment, both sides of the device may provide treatment directly or indirectly to human skin. Additionally, in another embodiment, the first side may be heated and the second side may be cooled. In another alternative, the temperature control element may heat and cool the first side and/or may heat and cool the second side, depending on the mode the mask device is in and the instructions the temperature control element receives from the controller. In another embodiment, the temperature control element may simply emit heat in one or several directions; in such an embodiment, it may not be able to cool the sides.

A first temperature sensor 120 and a second temperature sensor 122 (hereinafter collectively referred to as “sensors 120 , 122 ”) are also provided in the main body 10 . The sensors 120, 122 are substantially pellet-shaped and include tails 120a, 122a, respectively. Sensors 120 , 122 are operably connected to power source 60 and controller 70 and are used to measure and report the temperature of facial mask 2 to controller 70 . If one of the sensors 120, 122 detects that the temperature of the mask meter 2 exceeds a certain threshold, it will send said information to the controller 70, which will at the same time activate the "off" function of the device to protect its user from Potential effects of heating devices (eg skin burns). In this case, the mask device 2 will cease operation; such cessation may be permanent or temporary. Two sensors 120, 122 are provided to ensure that in the event of failure of either the first sensor 120 or the second sensor 122, the mask device 2 still has a working sensor to detect its temperature and shut down said mask device 2 if necessary. In the illustrated embodiment, each of the first sensor 120 and the second sensor 122 is composed of a negative temperature coefficient thermistor; however, in other embodiments, the first sensor and the second sensor may be composed of any suitable components. An experienced technician will be able to select suitable first and second sensors for a particular example based on a variety of considerations, including the particular temperature control element used and the size and shape of the device. In various embodiments, the sensor may be composed of any suitable material, including various semiconductors, copper, and other suitable materials. In other embodiments, the mask meter may include zero, one, three, or more than three sensors. In various examples, one or both of the sensors may instruct the controller to cease operation of the device when the sensors detect temperatures in excess of about 120°F, about 150°F, and about 180°F.

Various beauty accessories can be used with the Mask Meter 2. Exemplary cosmetic accessories include one or more masks 200, as shown in Figures 11A and 11B. However, in other embodiments, other types of cosmetic accessories may be used. Masks, such as Mask 200, are cosmetic for coating, filling, or layering various slurries, liquids, compounds, and the like. Masks are well known in the beauty industry, mainly in the form of masks that cover almost the entire face of the user. They stay on the user's face, allowing the material and/or serum or cosmetic to remain in contact with the face for an extended period of time and be absorbed by the user's skin. On the other hand, the mask 200 is shown in contact with only a part of the user's face, and only for a short period of time, ie when the skin care device 2 is in use.

The heating, cooling, vibration and/or light generated by the mask device 2 helps the ingredients of the mask 200 to be absorbed by the skin more quickly than if the ingredients of a conventional mask are placed on the face for an extended period of time. In various examples, the mask may be composed of cloth, mesh, various microfibers, silicone, combinations of one or more of these, and/or other suitable materials. In additional examples, the mask may be applied, contained, included or otherwise incorporated, alone or in combination, with one or more of the following materials and/or compounds: water, glycerin, butylene glycol, diethylene glycol, caprylic acid/ Capric Triglyceride, Ethyl Cetyl Caproate, Diglyceride Cobalt Caprate Coating, Hydroxyacetophenone, Panthenol, Allantoin, Cetyl Oligomer, Sorbitol Oligomer, Amino alcohol, caprylic/capric glycerides, niacinamide, carbomer, various acrylates, dipotassium carbomer glycyrrhizinate, tocopherol acetate, ethyl acetate, ethyl caproate, tremella sporangia extract, yellow Original Gum, Simmondsia Seed Oil, Gorse, Purslane Extract, Xyloside, Hydroxy Alcohol-Free, 3-Oxyethyl Ascorbic Acid, Glucose, 1,2-Hexanediol, Pearl Extract, Purslane Extract, Hydrogenated Lecithin, Ceramide 3, Butylene Glycol, Decyl Coconut Shell, Glycerin-26, Shea Butter, Macrogol-100 Stearate, Polysorbate 60, Trimethylamine, Carnosine , hydrolyzed collagen, palmitoyl tripeptide-5, and other suitable compounds.

The mask 200 can be placed on the surface 22 of the first side 20 and locked on the mask meter 2 by using the locking mechanism 50, once the mask 200 is placed on the mask meter 2, the locking mechanism 50 is placed on the mask 200 to lock . The mask 200 has a thin round shape. The mask 200 also includes protrusions 202 extending from the body of the mask 200, which allow the user to easily grasp the mask 200. When the locking mechanism 50 is fixed to the mask device 2, the locking mechanism 50 fixes a part of the mask 200 in the groove 24 and another part of the mask 200 on the top of the inner part 23 of the first side 20, through this Form to lock a mask of 200.

Figures 12A, 12B, 12C, and 12D respectively show a schematic diagram of the combination of a facial mask (such as the facial mask 200 ) and the facial mask device 2 . FIG. 12A shows the mask device 2 with the locking mechanism 50 disengaged from the groove 24 and the mask 200 positioned adjacent to, but not in contact with, the first side 20 of the mask device 2 . FIG. 12B shows the mask 200 in contact with the first side 20 and adjacent to the groove 24, and the locking mechanism 50 is positioned above the first side 20 but not in contact therewith. Figures 12C and 12D each show the mask 200 in contact with the first side 20, partially disposed within the groove 24, and secured to the first side 20 by a locking mechanism 50, which itself is partially disposed in the recess in slot 24.

In use, as shown in FIGS. 12A , 12B, 12C, 12D, a user can contact a mask (eg, mask 200 ) with the first side 20 and lock the mask in place by the locking mechanism 50 . The user then presses and holds the user control 72 of the mask meter 2 to activate the device. The mask meter 2 then signals to the user that the device is ready for use. One way of signaling that the mask meter 2 is ready to use is through the light source 100 emitting light. The light source 100 may be configured to emit light for a period of time (one second, two seconds, three seconds, etc.) to indicate that it is ready for use; it may also emit a certain color or sequence of colors to indicate that the device is ready for use. In various other embodiments, the light source may emit light in a rotational manner such that a particular light or beam follows a path to indicate that the device is ready for use. Optionally, once the device is activated, the user may press and/or hold the user control 72 for a period of time to ensure that the mask meter 2 is able to communicate with a second device, such as a cell phone. An example of this communication is a series of blinking lights after the user has long pressed the user control for 3 seconds. Confirming that the mask meter 2 communicates with the second device may be another lighting form of the light source 100 .

In one example, after the device is activated, the user may select a certain mode, program or therapy for the skin care device to perform. The user can press the user control multiple times to cycle through the optional therapy and display the process to the user through the light source. In an example embodiment, pressing the user control after activation causes the device to cycle through green, red, and/or blue light in a certain order. Other colors of light can also be emitted at this moment. In such an embodiment, the user can press the user control again (or stop pressing the control) when the device emits a specific light corresponding to the therapy the user wants the device to perform (the user can find this information in the manual or through trial and error) ). The device will then execute the selected treatment mode. In another embodiment, a particular treatment mode may be selected through additional buttons provided on the mask device that allow the user to cycle through the various treatment modes. In various embodiments, a particular treatment method may be selected through the use of a second device (eg, a cell phone) that communicates with and transmits information to the mask meter. In other embodiments, the speed and/or rotation pattern of the light emitted by the light source may display various selectable treatment patterns to the user.

Once the user selects a particular therapy, the mask device 2 will perform one or more of providing heating therapy or cooling therapy, emitting various types of light and/or vibration. The mask device 2, as described above, performs any of the instructions for these treatments by contacting or placing various parts of the device on the skin, and for any length of time. Additionally, these treatments can be applied to the skin with or without cosmetic accessories.

Examples of various treatment modalities are included below. The treatment modalities described below are merely illustrative in nature and do not limit the present disclosure in any way. The following treatment modes may include the use of a face mask in conjunction with the device; therefore, it is assumed that the face mask used in each treatment mode is secured on or partially within the face mask instrument prior to selection of the treatment mode. However, other examples exist where masks are not used. In addition, various mask instruments can perform many other treatment modes not described below.

In each example therapy mode, the user presses a mask meter user control, such as a mask meter user control. This activates the mask meter. Optionally, the user may then press and hold the user control for approximately 3 seconds; doing so will confirm that the mask meter is able to communicate with the second device via a flash of light from a light source (eg, a light source) for approximately 3 seconds. The user then selects the first example treatment mode by pressing the user control at the appropriate time or in the appropriate manner, as described above. At this point, with the example therapy mode activated, the user will place the mask meter near or in contact with his or her skin. Thus, various example treatment modes will treat the user's skin through the following heating, cooling, lighting, and/or vibration modes.

After selecting the first treatment mode, the light source will first simultaneously emit red light and heat the first side of the mask. This will last about thirty seconds. Next, the mask meter will simultaneously heat the first side, emit a red light, and vibrate for about sixty seconds. After that, the mask meter will vibrate at the same time and emit red light for about thirty seconds. This can be repeated for several cycles; in various treatment modes, one, two, three, four, five or more cycles can be used. The mask meter will stop working when there is a signal to stop the vibration of the three motors before. Deactivation of the skin care device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by operating a user control.

In various embodiments, the first example therapy mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, a light source may emit any of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit said light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 or any other suitable interval of seconds. Additionally, the first treatment mode may include periods in which the device is not operating to emit light, heat, cool, or vibrate. The various exemplary first treatment modes may include any suitable number of cycles. Furthermore, in the first treatment mode of other examples, the motor may generate vibrations and/or pulses at any frequency and for any suitable length of time, including between about 5 to 180 seconds, between about 30 to 150 seconds, and between about 60 and 120 seconds.

As mentioned above, the second example therapy mode may also be selected by user controls. After selecting the second treatment mode, the mask device will simultaneously emit red light and heat the first side of the mask device. This will last about thirty seconds. Next, the mask meter will simultaneously heat the first side and emit a red light, and vibrate or pulse for approximately 60 seconds. After this, the device will glow green and vibrate simultaneously for about thirty seconds. The mask meter will stop working when there is a signal to stop the vibration of the three motors before. Deactivation of the skin care device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode or by operating a user control. Optionally, the motor can then be restarted, and the mask device can be allowed to vibrate and/or pulsate for an additional 30 seconds; the intensity of the vibration and/or pulsation may diminish over time.

In various embodiments, the second example therapy mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, a light source may emit any of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit said light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 or any other suitable interval of seconds. Additionally, the second treatment mode may include periods in which the device is not operating to emit light, heat, cool, or vibrate. The various exemplary second treatment modes may also include any suitable number of cycles. Additionally, in other exemplary second therapy modes, the motor may generate vibrations and/or pulses at any frequency and for any suitable length of time, including between about 5 and 180 seconds, between about 30 and 150 seconds, and between about 60 and 120 seconds.

As mentioned above, the third example therapy mode may also be selected through user controls. After the third treatment mode is selected, the mask device will simultaneously emit blue light and heat the first side of the mask device. This will last about sixty seconds. Next, the mask meter will simultaneously cool the first side and emit blue light, and vibrate for about 30 seconds. Finally, the mask meter will simultaneously cool the first side, emit red and blue light, and vibrate for about 30 seconds. Deactivation of the skincare device can occur automatically at the end of the treatment mode, or by manipulating user controls. Optionally, the motor can then be restarted to allow the mask meter to vibrate and/or pulsate for an additional 30 seconds.

In various embodiments, the third example therapy mode may consist of any number of actions performed in any order. For example, a light source may emit any of green, blue, pink, or red light, and may emit said light continuously; it may also emit light at any suitable time interval, including 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 or any other suitable interval of seconds.
