1. A method for cooling a target region, the method comprising:
continuously directing a fluid flow from a treatment device to a first treatment area of the target region to provide cooling to the first treatment area, the fluid flow passing through a plurality of openings on an optically transparent region of a window of the treatment device;
exposing the first treatment area to electromagnetic radiation (EMR) being directed from the treatment device through at least one opening on the optically transparent region of the window and through at least a portion of the optically transparent region of the window; and
automatically moving the treatment device with an automated mechanism from the first treatment area to a second treatment area of the target region.
