Healthcare robotics for massage and aesthetic surgical treatments

Hair transplantation, massage and aesthetic surgery: The precision and sensitivity of the LBR Med make it indispensable for patients in medical aesthetics and wellness treatments. This KUKA robot integrated into medical products is ideal for sensitive applications involving physical contact.

Robot-based wellness and beauty treatments designed for human well-being

Assisted robotic systems in medical aesthetics and in the wellness sector usually come into direct contact with the human body. As a result, the robots must be able to perform tasks in an extremely sensitive manner. The LBR Med lightweight robot has the level of sensitivity required to respond to even minor movements by the patient during treatment. This robot integrated to robotic assisted surgical system is also an ideal solution for repetitive tasks and procedures such as hair transplants and massages. Its sensor technology allows for safe treatment with optimal results for patients.

Patients in practices and clinics benefit from the LBR Med’s wealth of functions, which can be integrated into customer-specific medical robots via numerous interfaces. What’s more, artificial intelligence is making increasing inroads into the fields of wellness and aesthetic medicine, shaping therapeutic approaches in the healthcare world.

KUKA medical robotics for patients aesthetic treatments and relaxation

Doctors and patients can benefit from LBR Med's capabilities in tasks such as surgical aesthetics and wellness treatments.

High sensitivity

Integrated sensors allow the robotic system to apply programmed forces or respond to human touch. This benefits the user and the patient in healthcare.
Precision and consistency

The KUKA LBR Med's repeatability of ±0.1 to ±0.15 mm makes tasks such as hair transplantation more precise and reliable when integrated into medical robots.
Attractive design

Its 7 axes and biocompatible surface top off the organic design, which is modeled on the human arm.
Real-time communication

Through real-time communication with the controller, the position of the KUKA LBR Med in robotic systems can be captured and manipulated in milliseconds.

Human relaxation at the touch of a button with the robotic massage system

The iYU® massage robot - a product of the French company Capsix Robotics - brings relaxation to users' lives. iYU® is able to recognize the characteristics of the human body and adapts in real time to effectively relieve pain and tension. This requires the integration of the sensitive, safe and collaborative LBR Med robot from KUKA Medical Robotics. Combined with an intelligent software system, it ensures a fine interplay of accuracy and pressure positioning for the benefit of the user. Robotic wellness treatment is fully automated - everything is controlled via the integrated touch screen.

ARTAS® Robotic Hair Restoration System: The Most Intelligent Hair Transplant Technology

The latest generation ARTAS® iX advances an innovative method for robotic hair transplantation by effectively integrating the latest robotic technology from medicine, image processing, AI and machine learning technologies. The system was originally developed by Restoration Robotics and is now owned by Venus Concept. The use of the new vision system, combined with proprietary algorithms, enables precise and consistent extraction of the patient's hair follicles. At the same time, the ARTAS iX platform can automatically and uniformly implant the harvested hair into a target area on the human head. KUKA Medical Robotics' LBR Med is integrated into the ARTAS® iX to help improve healthcare.

KUKA Medical Robotics: Optimal surgical outcomes with exceptional sensitivity and accuracy

As a robotic component, the KUKA Medical Robotics LBR Med can apply the ideal amount of pressure in medical devices or work tirelessly with sub-millimeter precision in patient hair transplant procedures. In addition to massage and hair transplantation, KUKA Medical Robotics LBR Med can be used for minimally invasive procedures such as hair removal, tattoo removal and skin pigmentation. Safety standards ensure that the robotic surgical system stops immediately in the event of irregularities and deviations, such as certain movements of the patient.

Aesthetic surgical treatments and massages can be programmed quickly and successfully with the KUKA Sunrise.OS Med operating system, improving healthcare procedures.

In addition, KUKA’s LBR Med hardware and software are certified under the IECEE CB Scheme certificate. This certification enables medical device manufacturers to bring their medical robots to market in a timely manner.
