The controller 490 is connected to the hand piece 600 via a cable 500. If the control unit 490 receives the treatment start signal from the hand piece 600 through the cable 500, the controller 490 determines that the treatment starts. When the controller 490 determines that the treatment is started, the controller 490 controls the vacuum processor 410 to suck air inside the vacuum cup 700. When the suction of the air in the vacuum cup 700 is completed, the controller 490 supplies the vacuum processor 410, the cooling gas supply unit 450, and the laser generator 470 to supply the cooling gas and the laser to the hand piece 600.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 13, the suction part 640 sucks air in the vacuum cup 700 through the suction port 642 formed on the outer surface of the hand piece 600.

Here, as shown in FIG. 13, the light irradiator 680 irradiates the laser to the skin through the light irradiator 682 formed on the outer surface of the hand piece 600.

The vacuum cup 700 is coupled to one side of the hand piece 600. That is, the vacuum cup 700 has a thread 720 formed on one side of the inner surface or the outer surface. At this time, the hand piece 600 is formed with a thread 690 for coupling with the vacuum cup 700 on one side, and the coupling between the

threads

690 and 720 of the vacuum cup 700 and the hand piece 600 is formed. Through the vacuum cup 700 and the hand piece 600 is coupled. For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the hand piece 600 has a thread 690 formed on one outer surface thereof, and the vacuum cup 700 has a thread 720 formed on one inner surface thereof. Vacuum cup 700 is coupled with hand piece 600 via

threads

690 and 720. At this time, the vacuum cup 700 may be coupled to a sealing member (not shown) on one side coupled to the hand piece 600 and the other side in contact with the skin to prevent the air inside the vacuum cup 700 to count. On the other hand, as shown in Figure 15, when composed of a vacuum tube 520 separated from the cable 500, the vacuum cup 700 may be formed with a connector 740 connected to the vacuum tube 520.

Hereinafter, a skin treatment method using a skin treatment system according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 16 is a flowchart illustrating a skin treatment method using a skin treatment system according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

When the user grips the hand piece 600 for skin treatment and presses a button formed on the outer surface of the hand piece 600, the hand piece 600 determines that the treatment is to start and generates a treatment initiation signal. The hand piece 600 transmits a treatment initiation signal to the main body 400 through the cable 500.

When the treatment start signal is input from the hand piece 600 (S210; YES), the main body 400 sucks air in the space between the vacuum cup 700 and the skin coupled to the hand piece 600 (S220). That is, the main body 400 drives the vacuum processor 410 when a treatment start signal is input. Accordingly, the air in the space between the vacuum cup 700 and the skin is sucked through the vacuum tube 520 of the cable 500 to raise the skin located inside the vacuum cup 700. In this process, impurities such as sebum present in the skin may be discharged to the outside through suction inside the vacuum cup 700.

The main body 400 supplies the generated first laser to the hand piece 600 through the cable 500. The hand piece 600 irradiates the first laser supplied through the cable 500 to the affected part (skin) (S230).

The main body 400 supplies the cooling gas to the hand piece 600 through the cable 500 when the irradiation of the first laser is completed. The hand piece 600 injects the cooling gas supplied through the cable 500 to the affected part (skin) (S240).

The main body 400 generates a second laser having a lower intensity than that of the first laser when the injection of the cooling gas is completed. The main body 400 supplies the generated second laser to the hand piece 600 through the cable 500. The hand piece 600 irradiates the second laser, which is supplied through the cable 500, to the affected part (skin) (S250).

The main body 400 terminates the suction of air inside the vacuum cup 700 when the irradiation of the laser for vibration is completed (S260). Accordingly, the skin located inside the vacuum cup 700 is lowered.

At this time, the main body 400 repeats steps S220 to S260 until the treatment end signal is input from the hand piece 600. When the user releases the button formed on the outer surface of the hand piece 600 after holding the hand piece 600 for skin treatment, the hand piece 600 generates a treatment end signal. The hand piece 600 transmits a treatment initiation signal to the main body 400 through the cable 500. When the treatment end signal is input from the hand piece 600 (S270; YES), the main body 400 ends the supply of the cooling gas and the laser (S280).

As described above, the skin treatment system and the skin treatment method using the same are irradiated with the first laser, spray the cooling gas on the skin, and then irradiate the skin with a second laser having a lower intensity than the first laser, thereby before and after cooling gas injection. Compared with a conventional skin treatment apparatus using a laser that irradiates the first laser on the skin, side effects such as skin damage and burns can be minimized.

That is, the skin temperature cooling degree by the cooling gas is formed differently according to the humidity of the place where the skin treatment is performed. The conventional skin treatment apparatus irradiates the first laser of the same intensity before or after the cooling gas injection, After irradiating and injecting the cooling gas, the second laser having a higher intensity than that of the first laser is irradiated, so that side effects such as skin damage and burns are relatively high.

However, the skin treatment system of the present invention and the skin treatment method using the same are irradiated to the skin after irradiating the first laser and spraying the cooling gas to the skin, the second laser having a lower intensity than the first laser through the second laser By cooling the skin in a cooled state and increasing the skin temperature, it is possible to minimize the occurrence of side effects such as skin damage and burns caused by the first laser.

In addition, the skin treatment system and skin treatment method using the same by suctioning (suctioning) the skin to be treated through a vacuum cup detachable to the handpiece and irradiating a laser, inhaling the affected part upward and irradiating the first laser to the affected part deeply Therefore, there is an effect that can maximize the skin treatment effect of the affected part located inside the skin. That is, the skin treatment system and the skin treatment method using the same pull up the affected part upward through the vacuum cup, thereby minimizing the distance between the affected part and the laser irradiation part. Accordingly, the skin treatment system and the skin treatment method using the same may maximize the treatment effect of the lesion located inside the skin by the first laser is deeply irradiated to the affected area.

Although a preferred embodiment according to the present invention has been described above, it is possible to modify in various forms, and those skilled in the art to various modifications and modifications without departing from the claims of the present invention It is understood that it may be practiced.
