Computing Platform for Improved Aesthetic Outcomes and Patient Safety in Medical and Surgical Cosmetic Procedures
U.S. Patent #11123140
Inventors: Iliana E. Sweis, Bryan C. Cressey
An electronic computing system creates a treatment plan and provides safe and accurate treatment recommendations by obtaining an input image of a face; comparing, using a pattern recognition process, one or more aspects of the input image to corresponding aspects of a plurality of reference images; obtaining, based on a result of the comparing, supplemental information associated with one or more additional characteristics of the face; and creating a treatment plan based on the input image and the additional characteristic.
Periorbital Puffiness Assessment Scale and Methods of Use Thereof
U.S. Patent #11103183
Inventors: Iliana E. Sweis, Bryan C. Cressey
The present disclosure provides a method of assessing periorbital puffiness in a subject by determining if the subject exhibits pseudoherniation of one or more upper eyelid fat pads and/or one or more of the lower eyelid fat pads, determining if the subject exhibits one or more conditions selected from the group consisting of: edema of the fat pad, edema along the soft tissue of the upper and/or lower eyelids, malar mounds due to edema, malar edema, and mild festoons aggravated by edema, and scoring the periorbital puffiness from both determinations.
Hyaluronidase Compositions and Methods of Using Same for Determining the Etiology of Peri-Orbital Puffiness
U.S. Patent Pending #20210236049
Inventors: Iliana E. Sweis, Bryan C. Cressey
The present disclosure provides methods for determining an etiology of upper and/or lower eyelid puffiness by examining a subject with squinted eyes; and determining if upper and/or lower eyelid puffiness does not improve, improves, partially improves, or worsens, wherein the etiology of the upper and/or lower eyelid puffiness is diagnosed to be anterior to the orbicularis oculi muscle if the puffiness does not improve, wherein the etiology of the upper and/or lower eyelid puffiness is determined to be posterior to the orbicularis oculi muscle if the puffiness improves, wherein the etiology of the upper and/or lower eyelid puffiness is determined to be anterior and posterior to the orbicularis oculi muscle if the puffiness partially improves, or wherein the puffiness is determined to be secondary to hypertrophy of the orbicularis muscle or if the puffiness worsens.
Hyaluronidase Compositions and Methods of Using Same for Assessing and/or Treating Periorbital Puffiness
U.S. Patent Pending #20210154274
Inventors: Iliana E. Sweis, Bryan C. Cressey
The present disclosure provides a method for treating a subject with periorbital puffiness by determining if the periorbital puffiness is due to edema or a structural change and administering a protein having hyaluronidase activity to the periorbital region of the subject if the periorbital puffiness is due to edema. Also provided are methods for determining if periorbital puffiness is due to edema or a structural change in a subject in need thereof by administering a composition that comprises a protein having hyaluronidase activity to the periorbital region of the subject, assessing the periorbital region at a predetermined amount of time after the administration of the composition, and then determining whether there is an improvement in the periorbital puffiness.
Hyaluronidase Compositions and Methods of Using Same to Treat a Cosmetic Condition
U.S. Patent #10857213
Inventors: Iliana E. Sweis, Bryan C. Cressey
The present disclosure provides a method of treating periorbital puffiness in a subject in need thereof by administering a composition that comprises a protein having hyaluronidase activity to a periorbital region of the subject. Also provided is a method of assessing periorbital puffiness in a subject by determining if the subject exhibits pseudoherniation of one or more upper eyelid fat pads and one or more lower eyelid fat pads; determining if the subject exhibits edema in one or more of the upper eyelid fat pads and the one or more of the lower eyelid fat pads; determining if the subject exhibits edema in the periorbital tissue; and scoring the periorbital puffiness due to periorbital edema from each of the prior three determinations.
Marking Template for Medical Injections, Surgical Procedures, or Medical Diagnostics and Methods of Using Same
U.S. Patent #10322249
Inventor: Iliana E. Sweis
The present disclosure provides a template for marking injection sites on a biological surface prior to performance of a medical procedure, wherein the template comprises a flexible sheet having marked positions or demarcated areas for each injection site, and wherein each marked position or demarcated area is associated with a unique identifier. Also provided are methods of using such disclosed templates in a medical procedure where an agent or material is injected into a patient.
