Abstract

A method and apparatus for the user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery of therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care ingredients of a quality, or at a rate, depth, intensity, dosage or concentration, selected or specified by the user or practitioner, effected by an interactive user or practitioner programmable electromagnetophoretic delivery device receiving at least one variable user-defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome selected or specified by the user or practitioner.

Claims (27)

CLAIMS:
1. A method for user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery of therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care ingredients, comprising; a) inputting at least one variable, user-defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome selected or specified by the user or practitioner into a system adapted for programming an interactive user or practitioner programmable electromagnetophoretic delivery device; b) optionally, receiving one or more additional variable parameters regarding the user- controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery method; c) executing an algorithm to derive at least one control instruction for the electromagnetophoretic delivery device utilising the at least one variable user- defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome, and where received, the one or more variable additional parameters; and d) providing the at least one control instruction to the electromagnetophoretic delivery device to effect the user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery of therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care ingredients of a quality, or at a rate, depth, dosage, intensity or concentration, selected or specified by the user or practitioner.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable user, patient or subject parameter.
3. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable environmental parameter.
4. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition parameter.
5. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable environmental parameter that is at least one of an ambient temperature value, an ambient atmospheric pressure value, and an ambient humidity value.
6. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition parameter that is a characteristic of the therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition or of the substance or active constituent of the therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition to be delivered by the electromagnetophoretic delivery device.
7. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable user, patient or subject parameter that is a characteristic of the dermal layer to which the electromagnetophoretic delivery device is to be applied.
8. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable environmental parameter that is a geographical location of the user, patient or subject.
9. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable user, patient or subject parameter that is an ethnicity of the user, patient or subject.
10. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a variable user, patient or subject parameter that is an age group of the user, patient or subject.
11. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the one or more additional variable parameters is a therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition parameter that is the identity of the therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition to be delivered by the electromagnetophoretic delivery device.
12. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one variable user- defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome is the choice of a specific quality of a multifunctional therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition to be delivered by the electromagnetophoretic delivery device.
13. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one variable user- defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome is the desired rate, depth, level of intensity, dosage or concentration, of delivery of the therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition to be delivered by the electromagnetophoretic delivery device.
14. The method of any one of the preceding claims, wherein the at least one control instruction is provided utilising a wireless communication device.
15. An interactive user or practitioner programmable electromagnetophoretic delivery device, adapted to perform the method of any one of the preceding claims.
16. The interactive user or practitioner programmable electromagnetophoretic delivery device of claim 15, comprising; a) an interface adapted to receive at least one variable user-defined or practitioner- prescribed outcome selected or specified by the user or practitioner; b) a data input module adapted to optionally receive one or more additional variable parameters regarding the user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery method; c) a processor adapted to execute an algorithm to derive at least one control instruction for the electromag netophoretic delivery device by processing the at least one variable user-defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome, and where received, the one or more variable additional parameters; and d) a delivery module adapted to utilise the at least one control instruction to effect the user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery method.
17. A system for programming the electromagnetophoretic delivery device of claim 15 or claim 16, comprising; a) an interface adapted to receive at least one variable user-defined or practitioner- prescribed outcome selected or specified by the user or practitioner; b) a data input module adapted to optionally receive one or more additional variable parameters regarding the user-controlled or practitioner-prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery method; c) a processor adapted to execute an algorithm to derive at least one control instruction for the electromagnetophoretic delivery device by processing the at least one variable user-defined or practitioner-prescribed outcome, and where received, the one or more variable additional parameters; and d) an output module adapted to provide the at least one instruction to the electromagnetophoretic delivery device to effect the user-controlled or practitioner- prescribed transdermal, intradermal or transappendageal delivery method.
18. A computer program including at least one command, which, when executed on a computing system, is adapted to perform the method steps of any one of claims 1 to 14.
19. A computer readable medium incorporating a computer program in accordance with Claim 18
20. A data signal encoding at least one command and being adapted to be receivable by at least one computing system, wherein, when the encoded command is executed on the computing system, the computing system performs the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
21. Use of the device of claim 15 or claim 16 to perform the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
22. Use of the system of claim 17 to perform the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
23. Use of the computer program of claim 18 to perform the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
24. Use of the computer readable medium of claim 19 to perform the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
25. Use of the data signal of claim 20 to perform the method steps of at least one of Claims 1 to 14.
26. A therapeutic, cosmetic or skin care composition for use in the method of at least one of claims 1 to 14.
