Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for simultaneously removing multiple hair follicles from a skin region of a patient. The method includes the step of illuminating the hair follicles with a large-area, optical radiation field by way of a transparent contact device proximal to the skin region. This allows portions of the hair follicles to be heated and then removed, while the surrounding skin region is left relatively free of injury.
