Abstract
The present application relates to a system and a method for treating a part of a body to be treated, particularly a system and a method for cutting hair on a part of a body to be treated. The system has a hand-held treating device having a treating unit, and an imaging module configured to generate information indicative of the position of the treating device relative to the part of the body to be treated based on an image of a part of the body and the treating device. The system also has a guide face configured to space the treating unit from the part of the body to be treated during use of the system. A controller is configured to change a distance between the treating unit and the guide face in dependence on the information generated by the imaging module.
