More Information
Summary:An energy treatment system to treat a patient includes an energy delivery device having a plurality of energy emitters used in combination with an energy activatable drug. A mask can be used to define a treatment area. Energy from the energy emitters passes through an optical window of the mask to activate a cosmetically and/or therapeutically effective amount of the activatable drug at the target site to bring about a desired change of tissue, for example, to reduce visibility of one or more blood vessels, while energy from the energy emitters directed outside of the target site is blocked by the mask.
