What is Thulium Laser?

Thulium laser, which is especially used in spot treatment, has a very strong effect on the removal of spots. It is not only used for spot treatment but also for fine wrinkles, scars, acne scars and skin tightening. The biggest difference of the thulium laser is that it targets ‘melanocytes’, which we call macrophages that will remove these cells from the area, instead of destroying melanin cells by exploding them.

How Many Sessions Does Thulium Laser Last?

Thulium Laser application is usually a single session. After the session, a redness that lasts only two hours is felt. Patients continue their social life very comfortably by using concealer creams the day after the application, while the results of the treatment begin to be seen within a week.

Does Thulium Laser Hurt?

Thanks to the anesthetic cream applied before the treatment, a very comfortable application is made. There is a burning sensation and redness for a few hours after Thulium laser sessions.
