Sun Damage in the Gulf
Yes, the LYMA Laser PRO is safe for all skin types, and for every skin tone on the Fitzpatrick scale - a medical classification system that ranges from Type I (very fair skin) to Type VI (deeply pigmented skin), including the darker Types IV, V and VI that are most at risk from traditional laser treatments.
Unlike other cosmetic lasers that use heat to damage the skin, the LYMA Laser PRO delivers Low-Level Laser Therapy deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production without causing any thermal damage. It's this heat-based damage that makes other laser technologies unsuitable for darker skin tones - the more melanin present, the greater the risk of scarring and hyperpigmentation.
As a zero-damage technology, the LYMA Laser PRO is a safe and effective solution for all skin tones.
Because Low-Level Laser Therapy doesn’t damage or wound skin in any way, the Laser PRO is completely safe to use immediately before or after sun exposure. In fact, using the Laser post-sun exposure will help to calm down the inflammation associated with sun exposure, though you should always protect skin from the sun with sunscreen or appropriate attire. Do not use the device if your skin is light sensitive or currently taking medication that may cause skin sensitivity to light. Doing so may result in a photosensitive reaction.
Yes, the LYMA Laser can be used after being exposed to the sun. The LYMA Laser can in fact help rejuvenate skin which has been damaged by over exposure to UVA and UVB rays.
We advise the LYMA Laser is used over clean prepared skin, however, you can use it over make up and SPF without interfering with the coherent Laser light.
As a general rule we advise people should use the LYMA Laser daily for around 3 minutes on each treatment area for three months to see maximum results, and then twice weekly to maintain these results. Using the LYMA Laser on uneven skin texture and on more mature skin may mean longer daily sessions and using the laser of a longer period. Concierge is available to help devise a bespoke skincare protocol and provide a virtual online consultation.
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.
Both the LYMA Laser and the LYMA Laser PRO incorporate exactly the same powerful, transformative laser technology. The difference is in the size of the treatment lens. The LYMA Laser is engineered with a 8cm2 treatment lens, optimized to transform skin on the face, neck and targeted areas of concern from 3 minutes daily.
The LYMA Laser PRO is engineered with a bigger 30cm2 treatment lens, optimized to transform skin on the face and neck faster, with a three minute treatment cycle.
Unlike traditional 'hot' lasers, the LYMA Laser aims to improve skin elasticity at home without any downtime or damage. The results of this groundbreaking cold laser technology rival the power and effects of professional in-clinic treatments. This marks a new era in non-surgical laser power for the face and body.
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.
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.
