I. Introduction to 1927 Thulium Laser
1. Core Definition:
The 1927 thulium laser is a non-ablative fractional laser. Its name is derived from its working medium - the thulium element, and the wavelength of the laser it emits - 1927 nanometers.
2. Key Technical Features:
(1) Wavelength (1927nm): This wavelength precisely falls on a peak absorption point of water. As human tissue is approximately 70% water, the 1927nm laser is highly absorbed by the water in the skin tissue.
(2) Mechanism of Action: When the laser energy is absorbed by the water in the skin, it generates a rapid thermal effect, creating thousands of microscopic microthermal treatment zones in the skin. The tissues in these tiny areas suffer controlled damage (columnar thermal denaturation), while the surrounding tissues remain intact.
(3) Non-ablative: Unlike traditional carbon dioxide lasers (ablative), the 1927 thulium laser does not vaporize or remove the skin surface. It merely creates tiny channels deep within the skin, initiating the skin's wound healing response while preserving the integrity of the epidermis.
(4) Fractional Technology: The laser is emitted in a fractional pattern, akin to creating numerous microscopic holes on the skin, but these are invisible to the naked eye. This significantly shortens the recovery period after treatment.
3. A simple comparison with traditional thulium lasers (1940nm) and CO2 lasers (10600nm):

II. The Functions and Applications of 1927 Thulium Laser in the Beauty Industry
Due to its shallow effect, efficient water absorption, and extremely short recovery period, the 1927 Thulium Laser has very precise and unique applications in the beauty industry.
Core functions and treatment indications:
1. Precise treatment of pigment-related diseases - Core advantage
This is the most prominent and widely known function of the 1927 Thulium Laser.
(1) Freckles, solar lentigines (age spots): The laser energy is absorbed by the water in the pigment clusters, and the thermal energy will destroy the excess melanin, causing it to fragment. Subsequently, these destroyed pigments will be excreted from the body along with the epidermal renewal (micro-scalpings falling off) within a few days after the treatment. Usually, the pigmentation will darken and then gradually fade.
(2) Yellowish spots: In 1927, thulium laser was regarded as a major breakthrough in treating yellowish spots. It metabolizes excess pigments in the epidermis in a very gentle way, gradually and safely, while the thermal stimulation it generates can also help repair the skin barrier and inhibit the excessive activity of melanocytes. Compared to other lasers, the risk of causing the reverse darkening of yellowish spots is significantly reduced.
2. Skin quality improvement and rejuvenation
By activating the "post-trauma repair" mechanism of the skin, it stimulates the regeneration of collagen and elastin.
(1) Fine lines and wrinkles: Especially suitable for fine lines in fragile areas such as around the eyes and mouth.
(2) Enlarged pores: By tightening the skin and reshaping collagen, it effectively improves the appearance of pores.
(3) Rough skin and uneven texture: Promotes epidermal renewal, making the skin smoother and more delicate.
3. Auxiliary treatment for acne scars and other superficial scars
It has an improving effect on superficial, roller-shaped acne scars. Usually, it needs to be combined with deeper-acting lasers (such as 1550nm/1540nm non-ablative lasers or ablative lasers) for the best results.
4. Comprehensive repair of photoaging
Completely improve skin problems caused by sun exposure, including pigmentation, rough skin texture, fine lines, and skin laxity.
III. Advantages of 1927 Thulium Laser:
1. Extremely high safety: Non-ablative nature means there is almost no risk of infection, scarring, or permanent pigmentation changes.
2. Extremely short recovery period (“midday beauty”): After treatment, there is only a brief (a few hours) redness and mild swelling. Within 1-3 days, there may be slight scabbing on the pigmented areas (like pepper powder), which will fall off after a while. It does not affect normal work and social activities.
3. Low pain: During treatment, there is usually only a slight prickling or heat sensation. Most people do not need to apply anesthetic or only need to apply anesthetic for a short time to tolerate it.
4. Precise targeting of pigments: For pigment-related problems, especially refractory chloasma, the effect is significant and safe.
5. Suitable for all skin types: Including Asian skin types III-IV, with relatively low risk of hyperpigmentation.
IV. Treatment Process and Precautions:
(1) Treatment Process: Clean the face -> (Optional) Apply topical anesthetic cream -> Laser treatment (about 15-30 minutes for the entire face) -> Post-treatment cold compress for calming -> Apply repair skincare products.
(2) Post-treatment reactions: Immediate redness and burning sensation, which will subside after a few hours. Some pigmentation spots will darken in the following days and form small crusts that will fall off.
(3) Post-treatment care:
a Moisturize and repair: Use medical-grade moisturizing and repairing products.
b Strict sun protection: This is of utmost importance to prevent recurrence of pigmentation.
c Gentle cleansing: Avoid vigorous rubbing of the face.
V. Summary
1927 Terium laser is an important "fine-tuning" tool in modern dermatological aesthetics. With its extremely high affinity for moisture, non-ablative nature, and short recovery period, it performs exceptionally well in treating pigment disorders (particularly melasma), improving fine lines, pores, and skin texture. For those seeking efficiency, low downtime (recovery time), and high safety, the 1927 Terium laser is an ideal choice.
d Treatment schedule recommendation: Usually, 3-5 treatments are required, with an interval of 4-6 weeks between each session to achieve and maintain the best results.
