Apparatus for selective photothermolysis of a target tissue within the skin, the apparatus comprising: a housing having an opening therein, said housing forming a cavity enclosing a volume of air when said opening is placed in contact with said skin; a pulsable heat source disposed within said housing which heats the volume of air, such that heat is transferred to the skin by the heated air; and a pulsable source of narrow band electromagnetic radiation disposed in the cavity which irradiates the skin with narrow band electromagnetic radiation to selectively heat said target tissue.

Appareil pour la thermolyse sélective de tissus cibles dans la peau, qui comprend un boîtier doté d'une ouverture, ledit boîtier formant une cavité entourant un volume d'air quand ladite ouverture est placée en contact avec la peau, une source de chaleur pulsée placée dans le boîtier, qui chauffe le volume d'air, de manière que la chaleur soit transférée à la peau par l'air chauffé et une source pulsée de rayonnement électromagnétique à bande étroite placée dans la cavité, qui dirige sur la peau le rayonnement magnétique à bande étroite pour chauffer de manière sélective les tissus cibles.
