Argon lasers are gas lasers that produce light in the blue and green wavelengths by ionizing argon gas. They are widely used in medical, research, and industrial settings due to their high precision, diverse wavelength range, and minimal thermal damage, which makes them suitable for applications that require accuracy and control, such as medical procedures and scientific research.
The primary types of argon lasers are argon ion lasers and argon excimer lasers. An argon ion laser generates light by ionizing argon gas and emits a beam predominantly in the blue and green parts of the spectrum. Revenue from argon lasers is categorized into laser revenue and system revenue, with applications spanning medical equipment, spectral analysis, industrial processing, information processing, and other uses.

The argon lasers market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.32 billion in 2024 to $2.54 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for minimally invasive surgeries, growth in dermatology and ophthalmology applications, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, innovations in laser technology, and the growing adoption of laser-based scientific equipment.
The argon lasers market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.6 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of laser therapies in emerging markets, rising demand for precision medicine, expanding applications in cosmetic and aesthetic procedures, growth in personalized healthcare solutions, and ongoing innovations in photonics. Major trends in the forecast period include minimally invasive surgeries, advancements in laser wavelength versatility, advancements in portable and energy-efficient laser technologies, expansion into veterinary applications, and heightened focus on eco-friendly laser technologies.
The rising prevalence of skin disorders is expected to drive growth in the argon laser market in the coming years. Skin disorders, which can cause symptoms such as irritation, inflammation, and changes in appearance, are becoming more common due to factors such as increasing pollution, lifestyle changes, and greater exposure to harmful substances. Argon lasers are effective in treating these conditions by using specific wavelengths to precisely target and repair damaged skin tissues, as well as to reduce pigmentation and vascular lesions. For example, the American Cancer Society reported that in January 2024, an estimated 108,270 cases of skin cancer are expected, marking a 3.2% increase from the 104,930 cases reported in 2023. Consequently, the growing prevalence of skin disorders is likely to boost demand for argon lasers.
Leading companies in the argon laser market are focusing on developing cutting-edge products, such as IoT-enabled argon laser chambers, to meet the growing demand for high-performance applications across various industries.
