Thulium Laser FDA Approved-What Is a Thulium Laser?
A Thulium Laser is a non-ablative fractional laser system operating at approximately 1927nm, a wavelength that is highly absorbed by water within the skin. This allows controlled thermal energy to be delivered precisely into the epidermis and upper dermis, creating micro-channels that stimulate natural skin renewal while preserving the surrounding tissue.
Clinical Applications
In professional aesthetic settings, Thulium Laser technology is widely used to improve:
-
Fine lines and early signs of ageing
-
Uneven skin texture
