Disclosed are a laser processing apparatus and method that can effectively remove a low-k material formed on a wafer. A laser processing apparatus of the invention is a laser processing apparatus that processes a subject on which a low-k material is formed. The laser processing apparatus includes a laser generating unit that emits a laser beam; and an optical system that splits the laser beam emitted from the laser generating unit into two and irradiates the split laser beams onto the subject In this case, the optical system includes a pair of condensing lenses in which cut surfaces that are cut at a predetermined distance from central axes to be parallel to the central axes contact with each other, and the interval between the two split laser beams is the same as the interval between two edges of the low-k material in a removal subject region. According to the invention, after splitting a laser beam into two laser beams and primarily removing the edges of the low-k material in the removal subject region using the laser beams, the remaining low-k material between the edges is removed. As a result, it is possible to improve processing quality.
