Ask any facialist what ages a face first, and skincare won't be the first thing they mention. Iván Pol, known to his A-list clients as The Beauty Sandwich, has spent two decades working on some of the world's most photographed faces. His view is simple: it's never just the skin.



"Your skin is only ever as good as the muscle it sits on," Iván explains. "As we age, the ligaments underneath it slacken. Everything drops."



It's a view that shapes how Iván approaches the neck and jawline. Meet Iván Pol, the facialist behind The Beauty Sandwich.

Why the neck and jawline show age first

The neck is one of the first places skin shows the passing of time, and one of the most overlooked in a routine. Beneath the skin sit deeper layers of connective tissue and muscle that change as we age. Most topical skincare works on the surface, so the question Iván asks is how far beneath it a treatment can reach.

Where the light goes: LYMA Deep Plane Technology®

LYMA Laser PRO alongside the LYMA Supplement

Powered by LYMA Deep Plane Technology®, the 808nm cold laser light of the LYMA Laser PRO reaches deep beneath the skin, into layers that topical skincare doesn't reach.


Traditional in-clinic lasers rely on controlled damage, which is what causes the heat, redness and downtime associated with them. LYMA's cold laser takes a different approach. No heat. No downtime. Just three minutes a day, used at home, for skin across the face, neck and décolletage that looks firmer, smoother and more radiant.

Why skincare still matters

Most topical skincare works on the surface; many formulas top out at around 20% active concentration. LYMA Power Youth Skincare was formulated differently, with over 60% active concentration and multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid. Some plump the look of skin instantly; others are formulated for hydration that lasts.


Used together, the Laser and skincare form one daily routine for skin that looks and feels its best.


The power to change your skin.
