USB flesh-burning pen for ladies. Because apparently they do that.

  • Today's top pick of WTF gadgets on eBay is this splendid USB rechargeable pen that physically burns and cauterises your flesh with an electrified needle. Perfect for when you want peachy smooth skin but a slightly irregular bit is spoiling your quest for perfection.
    The instructions even encourage you to burn off moles which sounds like a terrible idea given the risks associated it. (Cancer basically)
    And the idea of burning out a full tattoo over several sessions just sounds like you're going to have a large area burn where the tattoo used to be.
    Fortunately this particular unit avoids excess skin damage by not working very well and crashing repeatedly.
    The 18650 lithium cell clocks in at an impressive 2200mAh.

    I think the reason it crashes is

    b) lithium cell inside is undersized for the load and its protection circuit kicks in, shutting off the unit
    c) The processor is improperly shielded and its memory gets corrupted by EMR, which watchdog picks up and resets the processor

    My doctor won't do skin tags, or anything 'cosmetic'. I had one of those annoying warty moles that you'd catch - so I bought one of these and they actually work pretty well - not that painful even on the high setting and once you get the knack, the kind tag got zapped pretty quickly, and the mole thing was easy to burn away. They go red and a bit sore for a short period - maybe a day, then they heal and by three or four days, the skin is completely healed. The mole took three attempts to remove it down to flat skin level with no bump. As for hygiene you can use the sterile needles, but I just used the screw in tip and held it under the kettle steam for 30 secs or so. No infections, and apart from the soldering iron burning skin smell, I like the thing.

    I'm pretty certain the needles are there to be used for electrolysis hair removal. (when using more accurate and relyable equipnebt than this) with a little technique and a lot of care the needle can be inserted down beside a hair strand into the follicle, which is then cauterised using high frequency pulses. When done correctly (by an expert) the follicle will be disabled while the skin around it remains healthy.
    Especially useful to permanently remove thicker hairs on certain parts of the body...

    It's a real thing. We got involved with an epilator that failed EMC due to having a massive air core running at 100s of kHz. It's the only instance I know of Trading Standards getting involved.
    Our replacement was solid state and ran at a few MHz if memory serves. You have to get the frequency up there so it travels around your body not through it (Skin Effect). Above 1MHz there are different safety rules. The return path is the parasitic capacitance of the battery. In clinical settings Earth couples between the operator and the client. I can't remember the power levels but it might have been a few Watts.
    We used to practice on teabags.
    EDIT: Just checked the schematic and it was 3.2768MHz running a class B output stage run from 50V. Output via 22nF. There were a couple of transformers used only for isolation and voltage gain.

      My identical unit runs at 280 kHz with the needle not touching anything, according to my spec an. 2nd harmonic about 6 dB down at 560 kHz.
      I use mine to remove cherry angiomas, and it works quite well. The needle produces just a tiny spot of cauterization, without producing scarring. UT has a couple of videos where the technician touches the needle tip to the angioma only for an instant, then repeats.

    Clive, I believe there's a name for this type of procedure. I can't think of it now but I've had it done on some skin tags as far back as the 70's. I THINK this is the same type but a lot less powerful.
    In the Doctors office, you can see a varied size spark jump to your skin, you don't feel any shock but just a very hot point where the needle is placed, basically vaporizing the wart, skin tag, etc. A very hot centralized spot. Quite effective and fast and not much pain IMO.

      You'd likely burn the skin off the fingers holding the solder, and fry whatever semiconductor you're trying to solder.
      This device seems to put out high-voltage at high frequencies, which would be conducted by the solder and, in contact with skin, burn it. Semiconductors aren't fans of high voltages, and putting this device in contact with them might have the same effect of static electricity.

      I know for sure a soldering iron melts skin real well.... Note to self: Don't keep yourself up extremely late trying to finish off soldering a project. It isn't worth it when you end up grabbing the soldering iron in the middle of it instead of the handle with your bare hand.
      Worst part was that it took a couple seconds to register so by then I already had it held in my hand & had to figure out where/how to put it down without just dropping it and possibly causing a fire.
      Live & learn they say. At least I'm lucky the skin has all healed back fine since then but damn it was sure messed up & sore for weeks - couple months.
