Multiple beam laser treatment device
First Claim
1. A multi-wavelength laser treatment device comprising a handpiece configured to couple to a plurality of laser sources, the handpiece including three laser sources and comprising:
- a main body comprising an emission end including an output end;
at least one waveguide positioned at least partially within the main body, the at least one wave guide including at least one output emission surface and configured to emit a plurality of laser beams generated by the plurality of laser sources; and
wherein the handpiece is configured to emit a central collective emission region with a first diameter comprising a first laser beam and a second laser beam, and a peripheral area or region having a second diameter defined by the emission of a third laser beam, and wherein the each of the first, second, and third laser beams being emitted from separate laser sources of the three laser sources,the second diameter being greater than the first diameter and the central collective emission region is encircled by the peripheral area or region.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention include a treatment device and corresponding treatment method for laser wound healing, the device and method making use of the simultaneous action of multiple laser types and laser wavelengths which are applied at human tissue. The treatment device generally includes a laser system and a hand-piece which is coupled to the laser system. The hand-piece is designed so that one or multiple laser beams are applied at relatively small spot and at a relatively high power level, and are surrounded by a relatively large spot of another laser beam with a relatively low power level. In a preferred implementation, the hand-piece is adapted to facilitate the emission of first and second laser beams together with a third laser beam which is delivered at a different spatial profile in comparison to the first and second laser beams.
