Abstract

Multiple hygienic effects are concurrently applied to body structures. This is established by two or more light source sources each capable of delivering a light beam to the body structures using an optical means whereby each light beam provides a unique hygienic effect to the body structures. The device could be a handheld device with detachable components. The device could also be a brush or a comb. The device could include a massaging means and/or a vibrating means. An agent could be used to the body structures to assist in the hygienic treatment plan. A cradle could be included to store the device, reload the power supply of the device, as well as a means to communicate with a hygienic service provider. The cradle could also host a displaying means and a selecting means.
