A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11883095B2) discloses a hand-held laser treatment device designed to provide effective laser therapy. The device comprises a housing with a distal head region, a first laser source emitting a laser beam with specific characteristics, and a second laser source emitting a beam with different characteristics. An air pressure sensor is integrated to prevent activation of the laser sources based on sensed air pressure, ensuring safe operation. The device also includes a laser transmission path with discrete segments and ancillary transmission components, allowing the combination of the laser beams for treatment delivery.

Furthermore, the hand-held laser treatment device features a delivery tip, a focusing mirror, and a coupling fiber integrated into the laser transmission path. The components are strategically arranged to enable the transmission of laser beams to the delivery tip for effective treatment. Additional safety features such as a sensor to verify the optical path's integrity and a temperature sensor to monitor the device's temperature during operation are also included. The device's innovative design and functionality aim to enhance the precision and efficacy of laser treatments while prioritizing user safety and treatment integrity.
