A method of treatment of skin tissue with two laser devices of unequal wavelengths comprising the steps of: (1) activating the two laser devices simultaneously to produce two laser beams of unequal wavelength; (2) directing the two laser beams into a handpiece having a distal tip to direct the laser beams onto the skin tissue; (3) directing the two laser beams within the handpiece to an adjustable beam deflector; and, (4) the adjustable beam deflector directing the two laser beams onto the skin tissue to produce a pattern of laser spots simultaneously but separated from one another.

Cosmetic method and apparatus for the treatment of skin tissue using two wavelengths of laser energy

A hand-held device for providing a dermatological treatment by scanning laser beams to form a pattern of treatment spots on the skin includes a laser source configured to generate an input laser beam, an automated scanning system, and a treatment spot control system. The automated scanning system includes a rotating multi-sector scanning element configured to repeatedly scan the input laser beam, each scan of the input laser beam providing an array of output laser beams corresponding to the multiple sectors of the scanning element and forming a scanned row of treatment spots on the skin. The rotating multi-sector scanning element is configured such that the each sector provides a constant-angular-direction output laser beam as that sector rotates through the input laser beam. The treatment spots of each scanned row are spaced apart from each other by areas of non-irradiated skin. The treatment spot control system is programmed to provide a defined minimum distance between adjacent rows of treatment spots in a direction of manual movement of the device.

Devices and methods for radiation-based dermatological treatments

According to one implementation an assembly is provided that includes a polymeric body having a working lumen and an external profile. The polymeric body is secured to a clamp that is transitional between an open position and a closed position. In the closed position the clamp applies a force on the polymeric body to cause a full or partial closure of the working lumen. The clamp includes a wall having a through opening that has an internal profile that is substantially similar to the external profile of the polymeric body. At least a portion of the polymeric body resides in the through opening so that the polymeric body is prevented from rotating in the clamp.

Dermatological treatment device

A self-contained, hand-held device for providing a dermatological treatment may include a device body configured to be handheld by a user, a radiation source including a beam source configured to generate an energy beam, an application end configured to be manually moved across the surface of the skin, a sensor configured to generate signals based on an interaction with the skin, and electronics configured to automatically identify a series of intrinsic skin features based on the sensor signals, and control at least one operational parameter of the radiation source based at least on the identification of such skin features.
