Anti-aging is the focus of beauty needs. It mainly refers to lifting the skin on the face, making the skin firm and younger.The anti-aging process, from a microscopic point of view, is to stimulate the proliferation of collagen fibers and collagen in the dermis and accelerate its metabolism.
After the correct anti-aging treatment, wrinkles are removed, skin is tightened, and skin condition is better.
Liton Laser’s 2023 Turkey Exhibition, using Thulium laser to treat an Iranian client, his anti-aging treatment results are very good! We will now share the before and after results of the Thulium laser anti-aging treatment.
Introduction to Thulium Laser Anti-aging Theory
The 1927 thulium laser method is to stimulate the division and proliferation of fibroblasts located in the dermis and accelerate its ability to synthesize collagen fibers.This tightens the skin and removes wrinkles.
To understand how 1927nm thulium laser can be used for anti-aging and face lifting, you need to first understand the fiber structure of the facial dermis.
What does the Facial Fiber Structure Include?
1. Collagen Fibers
The main material that supports our beautiful face. Collagen fibers in the dermis account for 70% of the total weight of the dermis, mainly type I collagen. The dried fibers are roughly white. What everyone says about “stimulating collagen regeneration and proliferation” is mainly to stimulate type I collagen fibers.
The direction of these fibers is almost parallel to the plane of the skin, so if they are tight and dense, our skin surface will look elastic and will not sag. However, as we age, the structure of collagen fibers will become loose and sparse due to ultraviolet damage, and our faces will become loose, wrinkled, gradually lack elasticity, and lose luster.
Therefore, whether it is self-growth or exogenous provision of collagen to the body, it can promote the growth and regeneration of this part of the tissue and resist the aging face.
2. Elastic Fibers
Elastic fibers are mainly distributed in the scalp area, facial dermis, etc. Because they are very elastic, they are called elastic fibers. They are entangled between collagen fiber bundles and are also parallel to the epidermis. Elastic fibers and collagen fibers together maintain the tension and shape of the skin.
3. Reticular Fibers
Most of this type of fiber is type III collagen. This type of fibrin is very rare in normal human bodies and mainly appears in the embryonic period. However, it has a very important feature, that is, a large amount of type III fibrin proliferates when the wound heals.
The generation of this fiber comes from the bone marrow, not directly from the surrounding fibroblasts. Therefore, in the process of wound healing, if type III collagen fibers can be supplemented exogenously, it can effectively assist the body and accelerate wound repair.
Thulium Laser Heat Transfer to the Dermis
The structure of the skin includes several main parts, namely the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue, which is a kind of “composite material” with depth.
To stimulate the proliferation of collagen fibers, our laser penetration depth must be sufficient to reach the dermis, and through the photothermal effect, the original aging and loose tissue can be slightly damaged, stimulating fibroblasts to synthesize more fresh collagen fibers.
The 1927nm wavelength of Thulium laser is sufficient to reach the dermis. The light/thermal effect can be used to penetrate to the depth of the dermis, provide sufficient thermal pain stimulation, and promote tissue proliferation through nerve feedback.
1927nm non-ablative fractional laser is to apply 1927nm wavelength laser to the face in the form of fractions, forming small and deep micro-channels in the epidermal and dermal collagen tissues, thereby stimulating collagen regeneration, effectively reducing fine lines, shrinking pores and improving skin quality.
Thulium Laser Anti-aging Treatment Case
At the 2023 Beauty Eurasia Turkey exhibition, Liton Laser prepared thulium laser (1927nm, fractional laser) and provided on-site trial and treatment experience for customers at the exhibition.
There was a customer from Iran who knew about thulium laser but had not tried it. We were the first manufacturer to display thulium laser in Turkey. So this customer planned to try our thulium laser treatment.
Preparation Before Treatment
1. Skin Cleansing
Before the procedure, you need to clean your face thoroughly to avoid residual makeup or dirt that may affect the treatment effect. Use mild cleansing products to cleanse your face and avoid using cleansers containing scrub ingredients to avoid damaging your skin.
2. Skin Repair Products
After thulium laser treatment, the skin will have microchannels. Applying skin care products at this time can allow the product ingredients to fully penetrate deep into the skin and achieve excellent treatment results. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare repair skin care products (growth factors, collagen), as well as hydrating and sunscreen products in advance.
3. Treatment Expectations
It is necessary to confirm the treatment needs and possible changes and situations after treatment in a timely manner. Professor Hong, the head of Liton Laser training, observed the skin condition of Iranian tourists and gave the feasibility of anti-aging treatment and the expected treatment results. The customer was very satisfied and said that skin anti-aging was exactly what he needed.
Anti-aging Process Details
Liton Laser determined the treatment needs of the Iranian customer, and Professor Hong began to set the parameters, setting the power, pulse width, and dot spacing of the thulium laser. Then he selected the machine handpiece, and used the roller tip for facial anti-aging treatment.
In terms of pattern, we chose a circular pattern for him, which can treat a large area of the face. For the treatment mode, we chose a random treatment, which can treat irregular all-round treatment. The power is 3W, the pulse width is 5ms, and the dot spacing is 0.8mm.
During the treatment, the left side of the whole face is treated first, and the roller is used to repeat the treatment twice until the skin turns slightly red, and there is a noticeable heat sensation when touched, and the customer feels warm. Then repeat the treatment on the right face.
For the forehead and chin, the pulse width is set to 4ms, and the treatment is repeated three times to make the skin partially red. Finally, the eye area and nose are replaced with a small area roller, and the operation is repeated 3 times.
Post-treatment Care
After Thulium laser treatment, the skin will be in a more sensitive and fragile state, so post-treatment care is equally important. Here are some suggestions for post-operative care:
1. Immediately After Treatment
Cold compress: Apply cold compress for 15-30 minutes immediately after surgery to relieve redness, swelling and burning sensation. You can use ice packs or refrigerated towels, but be careful not to touch the skin directly to avoid frostbite.
Anti-aging products: After thulium laser treatment, the skin channels are open. Applying anti-aging skin care products in time can better absorb the product ingredients and improve the treatment results.
Moisturizing and repairing: Use mild moisturizing products, such as medical repair masks, to promote skin repair. It is recommended to choose non-irritating, simple moisturizing products to avoid additional burden on the skin.
2. One Week After Treatment
Avoid getting wet: Avoid getting wet within 24 hours after surgery, and then gently clean your face. Use warm water to wash your face and avoid rubbing the skin hard.
Strict sun protection: Use high-multiple sunscreen (SPF30 or above), wear a hat and use a parasol when going out. Ultraviolet rays are one of the main causes of pigmentation. The skin is more sensitive to ultraviolet rays after surgery, so sun protection is essential.
Avoid makeup: Do not wear makeup within one week after surgery, and avoid using alcohol-containing skin care products. The chemical ingredients in cosmetics may irritate the skin and affect recovery.
Eat a light diet: Avoid spicy, greasy, and photosensitive foods (such as celery and coriander), and eat more foods rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C helps to resist oxidation and repair the skin, and promote skin recovery.
3. Long-term Care
Continuous sun protection: Strictly protect against sun exposure within 3 months after treatment to avoid ultraviolet light causing pigmentation. Even indoors, it is recommended to use sunscreen because ultraviolet light can reach the skin through glass.
Regular follow-up: Follow-up 1-2 weeks after treatment, and seek medical attention in time if there are any abnormalities. Follow-up can help doctors detect and deal with possible problems in a timely manner. It is also conducive to the judgment and recording of treatment results.
Whitening maintenance: Use products with whitening ingredients to prevent the recurrence of spots. It is recommended to choose whitening essences containing ingredients such as tranexamic acid and vitamin C derivatives to help inhibit the formation of melanin.
Before and After Treatment Photos
These are photos of Iranian customers before and after thulium laser treatment. You can see that the skin changes greatly before and after.
The leftmost picture shows the skin before treatment. The skin color is dull, the face and forehead wrinkles are obvious, and the whole face is seriously aged.
The middle picture shows the skin after one week of treatment. The skin begins to brighten and the facial wrinkles begin to lighten, which is beneficial to the initial treatment effect.
The rightmost picture above shows the skin after one month of treatment. The skin condition is better, the skin color brightness is improved, similar to the whitening effect, the wrinkles on the face are eliminated, collagen is regenerated, the concave part of the right face is filled, and the skin is smooth and complete.
The anti-aging treatment results of Liton Laser 1927nm thulium laser are excellent. After one-time treatment for one month, obvious anti-aging effects are obtained.
