BB AquaTouch Laser

What is BB AQUATOUCH?

Widely popular in South Korea, this treatment is often called the BB Laser for its ability to refine skin tone and texture—mimicking the flawless finish of BB cream.

The result? Clear, porcelain-smooth, radiant skin, no makeup needed.

The BB Glow, From Within

The BB AquaTouch is an innovative facial treatment that utilizes the 1927nm Thulium laser technology to target the skin’s basal layer (the deepest layer). This laser treatment provides skin rejuvenation — very similar to applying BB cream or using a natural filter on your face.

BB AquaTouch’s sub-ablative approach allows our SW1 doctors to precisely treat age spots, photo-damaged skin, melasma, and pigmented lesions. And the best part is that all this happens without any aggressive downtime.

How Does It Work?

The 1927nm Thulium laser delivers energy into the skin’s basal layer using fractional micro-columns. These controlled microthermal zones break down excess melanin, stimulate skin renewal, and trigger collagen regeneration.

Unlike traditional lasers that remove surface skin aggressively, BB AquaTouch uses a sub-ablative approach — it gently resurfaces the skin while preserving its protective barrier. Microscopic crusts form temporarily on treated areas, acting as biological bandages that protect and speed up healing, minimizing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Over time, this process results in:

• Brighter, more even-toned skin
• Smoother texture and refined pores
• Faded pigmentation and sun spots
• Youthful luminosity from within

BB AquaTouch is ideal for individuals concerned with:

• Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
• Sun spots, melasma, and age spots
• Acne scars and enlarged pores
• Fine lines and rough texture
• Dull or tired-looking skin

Supporting Clinical Studies

Clinical research on 1927nm Thulium laser technology has demonstrated significant improvement in pigmentation, melasma, and photoaging with minimal downtime.

• A 2015 study in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine reported visible skin clarity and texture improvement after two sessions.
• Studies also show a marked reduction in melanin index and an increase in collagen production, making this wavelength ideal for skin rejuvenation with low irritation and high safety.
