A laser apparatus and method for permanently removing a plurality of hair follicles from the skin of a patient. The laser apparatus and method includes a housing having at least first and second lasers contained therein for emitting at least first and second pulses of coherent light energy having a pulse width in the range of +E,fra 1/2+EE ms to 40 ms; a first fiber optic bundle connected to the first laser for transmitting at least a first pulse of coherent light energy to the skin of a patient, and a second fiber optic bundle connected to the second laser for transmitting at least a second pulse of coherent light energy to the skin of a patient; and a sequence control device for controlling at least first and second lasers to emit at least first and second pulses of coherent light energy either sequentially or simultaneously, with a time delay of less than 100 milliseconds between the sequential pulses of the first and second lasers. The laser apparatus and method further includes a handpiece assembly for holding a section of each of the first and second fiber optic bundles for directing at least first and second pulses of coherent light energy to the same spot of the patient's skin to remove the plurality of hair follicles, veins, or capillaries. In an alternate embodiment, other optical delivery systems may be employed, such as an articulated laser arm assembly.
