A laser system for medical treatment is disclosed which comprises a pump, wherein the laser system is adapted to be operated in pulsed operation so that at least one laser pulse of a temporally limited pulse duration (Tp) is generated. The generated laser pulse irradiates some part of the human or animal body so that a two-dimensional laser spot S is located on the top layer of the irradiated part of the human or animal body. The pump power of the pump of the laser system is modulated in such a way that the cumulative energy ES(Tp/2) which is delivered by said laser pulse to said laser spot S during the first half of the pulse duration is less than 45% of the energy ES(Tp) which is delivered by said laser pulse to said laser spot S during the entire pulse duration Tp.

An articulated arm for applying a laser beam to a treatment zone has an arm section and a horizontal pivot joint. A spring arrangement acts on the pivot joint and has a cam disk and a pressure member following the cam disk contour as the arm section pivots. The arm section has, relative to a vertical direction, positive and negative pivot angle ranges. In the positive range the spring arrangement relieves the pivot joint from weight forces. When a resting angle in the negative range is reached the articulated arm rests in a support device. A total moment resulting from a weight force moment of the articulated arm and a restoring moment of the spring arrangement acts on the articulated arm about the pivot joint; cam disk contour and spring pretension are matched such that for the resting angle the total moment is oriented toward the support device.
