1. A self-contained, hand-held device for providing laser-based dermatological treatments, the device comprising:

  • a device body configured to be handheld by a user;

    a laser beam source supported in the device body;

    an automated scanning system configured to receive an input beam generated by the laser beam source and scan the received input beam to provide a series of automatically scanned output beams for delivery to the skin to form a pattern of treatment spots on the skin;

    an application end arranged for delivery of the automatically scanned output beams to the skin, and configured to be manually moved across the skin during a treatment session; and

    electronics configured to control at least one of the laser beam source and the automated scanning system to deliver the automatically scanned output beams to the skin at a delivered radiation intensity at the skin sufficient to provide an effective dermatological treatment;

    wherein the automatically scanned output beams delivered from the application end of the device meet the Class 1M or better eye safety classification per the IEC 60825-1.
