Rising Product Launches Bolsters Surgical Laser Fiber Units Market Growth

As the field of photonics evolves, laser fibers continue to be a preferred choice by medical professionals for diagnostics and therapeutic applications. These fibers have been adopted rapidly due to their physical characteristics, consisting of a fiber waveguide structure. A wide variety of wavelengths generated through laser fibers and the diversity of physical mechanisms used in pulse generation also supplement the flexibility of fiber laser technology.

Several market players are launching innovative medical laser fibers in the market, which is likely to boost the global medical laser fibers market growth. A few recent product launches in the global medical laser fibers market are as follows:

• In August 2023, InnoVoyce launched a new 300-micron fiber designed to deliver greater flexibility and control during vocal repair procedures. With the assistance of a new delivery system, physicians can improve these aspects to target treatment areas and minimize the risk of damage to surrounding tissue.

• In February 2023, Honeywell introduced 25 decitex ultra-fine fiber to its Spectra Medical Grade (MG) BIO portfolio at MD&M West. This fiber is designed for minimally invasive cardiovascular and orthopedic devices, offering greater strength and improved longevity than traditional materials such as polyester and nylon.

• In February 2023, OFS, a leading designer and manufacturer of innovative fiber optic products, announced that it showcased its 150 W Raman Fiber Laser Module at the Photonics West Exposition in San Francisco. OFS offers advanced, easily integrated modules based on their high-power CW fiber laser platform, enabling quick customer integration and development.

Therefore, the emergence of innovations is expected to drive the demand for medical laser fibers in the upcoming years.

The surgical laser fiber units market analysis has been carried out by considering the following segments: laser type, material, application, power, wavelength, end user, and geography. The surgical laser fiber units market, based on laser type, is segmented into CO2 lasers, diode lasers, erbium lasers, Nd:Yag lasers, holmium lasers, alexandrite lasers, and others. The CO2 laser segment held the largest share of the market in 2024, and it is expected to register the highest CAGR during 2024–2031. Carbon dioxide gas is used as the active medium in CO2 laser to create a highly focused beam of light that can cut or destroy tissue during surgical procedures. This laser light not only cuts through tissue but also sterilizes and seals the area, which helps reduce bleeding and pain and shortens the healing time. CO2 laser fibers are versatile instruments for delivering CO2 laser energy from the source to the treatment site on the patient, effectively overcoming the limitations of articulated arms and mirrors. These fibers offer a flexible alternative to rigid systems in nearly all medical applications. Their use allows medical professionals to access difficult-to-reach targets in the human body more conveniently across dermatology, gynecology, ENT, and other medical disciplines.

In terms of material, silica-based fibers, quartz fibers, polymer-based fibers, multimode fibers, and others. The silica-based fibers segment held the largest surgical laser fiber units market share in 2024. Silica-based fibers, commonly known as silica optical fibers, are primarily made from high-purity synthetic fused silica. These fibers have excellent light transmission properties, flexibility, and the ability to handle high power levels. As a result, silica fibers are being increasingly integrated into endoscopy, laser surgery, and phototherapy. Several companies are at the forefront of developing silica-based fibers for medical applications. For instance, OFS Specialty Photonics focuses on manufacturing high-performance silica optical fibers specifically designed for medical use. Their HCXtreme fibers are engineered to reliably handle high laser powers. AFL Global offers a variety of specialty optical fibers, such as high-OH pure-silica core multimode waveguides that support various laser delivery systems. Additionally, Heraeus Conamic develops specialty optical fibers that efficiently transport laser light into the body, contributing to advancements in minimally invasive surgical techniques.

The global surgical laser fiber units market, based on power, is segmented into low-power lasers, medium-power lasers, and high-power lasers. The high-power lasers segment held the largest share of the market in 2024.

The global surgical laser fiber units market, based on application, is segmented into urology, dermatology, ophthalmology, cardiovascular, respiratory, neurology, and others. The ophthalmology segment held the largest surgical laser fiber units market share in 2024.

Based on wavelength, the medical laser fibers market is segmented as 9,301 nm and above, 2,941–9,300 nm, and 1,441–2,940 nm, 821–1,440 nm, 710–820 nm, and below 710 nm. The 9,301 nm and above segment held the largest share of the market in 2024.

The surgical laser fiber units market, based on end user, is segmented into hospitals, specialty clinics, ambulatory surgery centers, and others. The hospitals segment held the largest share of the market in 2024.

The geographical scope of the surgical laser fiber units market report includes the assessment of the market performance in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, South and Central America. North America accounted for the largest surgical laser fiber units market size in 2024. According to estimates released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2023, ~610,000 people die due to cardiovascular diseases in the US, accounting for 1 in every 4 mortalities. Such a high prevalence of heart diseases drives the need for medical laser systems, which are used to treat coronary artery disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias, and congenital heart disease. The laser angioplasty procedure is performed to reduce the plaque in the coronary arteries.

The surging adoption of laser treatments in aesthetic procedures, such as hair laser removal treatment and laser skin treatment, is likely to influence the medical laser fibers market growth in the US during the forecast period. The country has a large market for aesthetic treatments, such as laser hair removal, skin resurfacing, tattoo removal, and acne treatments. Laser fibers offer high precision and minimal downtime, which are highly attractive to those seeking cosmetic procedures.
