Perlax Saggy skin
Sagging happens in the dermis - deep below the surface - where collagen and elastin fibres break down over time. Topical creams can't reach there; the molecules are too large to penetrate the skin barrier. Collagen supplements are broken down by digestion and distributed wherever your body needs them - not necessarily your face. To rebuild firmness, you need a technology that physically reaches those dermal cells directly. That's what medical-grade laser does.
There have been hundreds of medical papers published since the 1960s on the effects of low-level laser photobiomodulation; the underlying technology in the LYMA Laser. Real customer reviews and before-and-after photographs also substantiate LYMA’s efficacy as a leading cold-laser wrinkle treatment.
Most notably, a recent review by Dr Graeme E. Glass (2021) in Aesthetic Surgery Journal synthesizes the clinical evidence for photobiomodulation, including applications in skin rejuvenation, and discusses its safety, effectiveness, and remaining research challenges.
The review concludes that low-energy near-infrared laser light is a safe and effective method for facial rejuvenation; boosting mitochondrial function, stimulating growth factor synthesis, and reducing oxidative stress
The majority of traditional laser treatments stimulate collagen production by distressing skin cells through thermal attack in order to trigger the body’s innate reparatory response.
Unsurprisingly this is not a healthy long term solution and also risks causing pigmentation spots and scarring in people with darker skin tones and more melanin rich skin. Instead, LYMA is engineered with the most powerful Low Level Laser, an innovation pioneered in hospitals, to encourage them to renew, regenerate and behave as young again.
Most professional tightening technologies - RF, microneedling, ablative lasers - work by causing controlled damage and relying on the skin's wound-healing response to produce collagen. They're effective but come with pain, downtime, and results that fade between sessions.
The LYMA Laser PRO activates collagen production directly at the cellular level, with no heat, no injury, and no recovery time. Results compound with daily use rather than degrading after each treatment session.
Yes - the jawline and jowls are among the most common treatment areas. Jowling occurs when collagen and elastin in the lower face break down, causing skin to lose its attachment and fall.
The LYMA Laser PRO's 808nm beam penetrates to the dermal layer where this occurs, stimulating collagen and elastin production with daily 15-minute sessions along the jawline, jowls, and neck.
Visible lift and improved definition are typically noticeable from months two to three.
With the LYMA Laser, you can improve skin elasticity at home, hold the laser lens over each section of skin you wish to treat for 3 minutes, ensuring the lens makes contact with the skin before moving onto the next section of skin.
Yes. The LYMA Laser PRO is safe and effective on face, neck, décolletage, the body and hands.
Yes. Whether laxity is caused by age-related collagen breakdown or rapid volume loss from weight loss, the underlying issue is the same: the dermis has lost the structural proteins that give skin its firmness.
The LYMA Laser PRO reactivates the cells responsible for collagen and elastin synthesis regardless of the cause. Results are typically noticeable from month two onwards with consistent daily use.
Most users notice improved texture and hydration within 30 days. Visible transformation - jawline definition, wrinkle reduction - typically appears by week 4-6. Results continue to improve over 3-6 months.
As soon as you start using the LYMA Laser PRO you’ll notice an immediate skin boost, and with continued use over 30 days, profound transformational results will emerge.
From the very first use, skin will look more glowing and its tone more even, making the LYMA Laser PRO the perfect pre-event skin prep tool. With consistent daily use your skin’s health and resilience will steadily improve.
Results on fine lines and wrinkles can be seen after 30 days of use of the Laser PRO and around 12 weeks of using the original LYMA Laser, but take before and after pictures, so you can see the progress yourself. For the best results, use the LYMA Laser daily for three months and then twice weekly to maintain.
Yes. The LYMA Laser PRO is a powerful clinical-grade at-home cold laser therapy device. However, the Youth System is designed so that each element reinforces the others, supporting more comprehensive results over time.
The LYMA Laser is perfectly safe to use on areas of the skin that have been treated with muscle relaxant injectables or fillers. The LYMA Laser can help calm inflammation and speed up post surgical recovery.
Yes. LYMA’s 808nm cold laser is safe for all skin types and tones - no heat damage, no contraindications for darker skin.
In the hands of a skin professional, the LYMA Laser PRO is a world-class skin rejuvenating treatment, which is why so many facialists and dermatologists are adopting it into their treatments.
Due to the highly advanced construction of this device using a patented lens diffusion system, the LYMA Laser PRO delivers powerful skin renewal with zero pain, zero damage and zero downtime. The LYMA Laser PRO is completely safe to use, even around the delicate eye area, with no need for goggles.
All LYMA's professional partners are offered full product training, and our team is always on hand to answer any questions and give advice on how to incorporate the Laser PRO into your existing treatment plans.
The LYMA Laser PRO technology is very safe to use as it does not cause any cellular damage during the renewal and restoration process. However we advise customers of the following important information:
Do not use this device if your skin is light sensitive or you are currently using medication that may cause skin sensitivity to light. Doing so may result in a photosensitive reaction.
Do not use the device over any areas associated with the following medical conditions: tumors, melanoma, overactive thyroid, or fungal skin infections.
Do not use the device on infants or children under the age of 18.
Do not use the device to treat any other condition that is not detailed in the indications for use. The device has not been tested for any other conditions and the risks are unknown.
Do not use the device to treat anyone who suffers from Lupus erythematosus, photosensitive eczema or Albinism, as this may cause a severe skin reaction.
The LYMA Laser PRO has not been tested on pregnant women and therefore the risk to the fetus or pregnant woman is unknown. Administration of treatment during pregnancy is entirely at practitioner or user’s discretion.
This device has not been tested over breast implants and the risk is unknown. Administration of treatment over this area is entirely at practitioner or user’s discretion.
If you have a medical condition, we always recommend checking with your practitioner if you are unsure of any contraindication.
