Automated system for laser-assisted dermatological treatment

An automated system for laser-assisted removal of a dermatological condition from skin, the system comprising:

• a robot arm assembly, including a robot arm, and a laser head with an image acquisition device and at least one proximity sensor, said laser head coupled to the robot arm;
• a processing unit, with a memory in communication therewith, that generates and stores a virtual model of a skin surface area of a patient to be treated, based on pre-input patient-related data stored in the memory, the skin surface area to be treated including the dermatological condition to be removed,
• said virtual model constituting a two-dimensional representation of the skin surface area to be treated, including a plurality of sub-areas arranged into a grid, each sub-area of said sub-areas corresponding to an individual portion of skin defined square-wise within boundaries of the skin surface area to be treated;
• and
• a controlling unit that issues a series of real-time feedback-based commands to the robot arm assembly based on said virtual model and from a series of parameter data which the controlling unit is configured to receive from the at least one proximity sensor and from the image acquisition device for each individual portion of skin defined within the boundaries of the skin surface area to be treated.
