Inside LYMA Deep Plane Technology®

Ask a facial plastic surgeon where ageing really happens, and they won’t point to a wrinkle. They’ll point beneath it.

Skin is the part you can see. But the shape of a face, the lift of a cheek, the line of a jaw, is held up by layers most of us never think about: ligaments, muscles and fat pads beneath the skin. As those layers change with age, the skin above them changes too.

LYMA Deep Plane Technology® is named for those deeper layers beneath the skin, and for how far our laser light reaches into them.

The LYMA Laser: the power to change your skin

Powered by LYMA Deep Plane Technology®, the LYMA Laser uses cold, near-infrared laser light, with no heat and no downtime, to transform the appearance of skin on the face and body.

Used daily, it helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, uneven texture, as well as rosy skin and blemishes, for skin that looks smoother, firmer and more radiant.

And its effect is cumulative. Each daily session builds on the last, so the longer it is used, the more visible the results.

What is LYMA Deep Plane Technology®?

LYMA Deep Plane Technology® powers the LYMA Laser and LYMA Laser PRO. Both deliver coherent, near-infrared laser light at 808nm and 12 joules, with no heat, no pain and no downtime.

Many in-clinic devices work by heat, creating controlled injury. The LYMA Laser takes a different approach, using cold laser light instead.

The experts who use the LYMA Laser

Dr Graeme Glass MD, PhD led the clinical research behind the LYMA Laser and created the LYMA Lift, a facial protocol built around it.

Dr Jason Diamond, facial plastic surgeon at the Diamond Face Institute in Beverly Hills, uses the LYMA Laser in his practice. He is joined by board-certified dermatologists including Dr Dan Belkin and Dr Dendy Engelman, and by the aesthetician Joanna Czech, who uses the LYMA Laser in her treatment rooms in New York and Dallas.

Your questions about LYMA Deep Plane Technology®

What does LYMA Deep Plane Technology® mean?

LYMA Deep Plane Technology® is a registered trademark. It describes the deeper layers beneath the skin that the cold laser light of the LYMA Laser and LYMA Laser PRO reaches. It is not a cosmetic procedure as there is no pain, no heat, no downtime and you can use the LYMA Lasers in the comfort of your own home.

Why does the face lose its shape with age?

The face loses its shape as the structures that support it change. Fat pads shift, the retaining ligaments loosen and skin becomes thinner and less elastic, so the face begins to drop.

Does the LYMA Laser use heat?

No. The LYMA Laser uses cold, near-infrared laser light, with no heat and no downtime.

What is photobiomodulation?

Photobiomodulation is the scientific term for the use of specific red and near-infrared wavelengths of light on the skin. The LYMA Laser uses near-infrared laser light at 808nm, with no heat.

How is a cold laser different from a heat-based laser?

Heat-based lasers create controlled injury, which brings downtime. Cold lasers such as the LYMA Laser use light with no heat and no recovery period.

Can I use an at-home laser around a facial procedure?

Many people do, but always follow your surgeon’s aftercare plan first and never use any device on open or healing skin without their approval.
