Inside LYMA Power Youth Skincare and the technology behind it.
Can skincare visibly reduce the signs of ageing, or does it only ever sit on the surface?
Take a glance at your bathroom shelf and the products that sit there, and for most of them the honest answer is: they sit on the surface.
The formulas used by many skincare brands work only on the surface layer of skin. LYMA has created first-of-its-kind skincare designed to produce a different answer to that question - one supported by science and clinical evidence.
LYMA Power Youth Skincare is formulated using the latest thinking in skin science. This is not a better moisturiser. It is a different category of skincare.
Here we explain why and how.
LYMA's skincare was created using expertise gleaned in the operating theatre
Dr Graeme Glass MD is not only LYMA's Aesthetic Director, he is also a globally renowned facial and limb reconstructive surgeon and a leading clinical expert in photobiomodulation and epigenetic stem cell biology.
These are credentials that give him real authority, and they shaped the journey he embarked on to create LYMA's skincare: a journey that was not cosmetic in origin, but surgical. Over a career spent in the operating theatre, he observed something the aesthetics industry rarely discusses out loud: surgical outcomes varied enormously from patient to patient, and not because of the procedure. They varied because of the skin itself. Some patients' skin responded, recovered and held its structure. The skin of other patients, treated identically, did not.
That observation produced an interesting question for Dr Glass. Not how do we make skin look younger? but why does some skin appear to age at a fraction of the rate of others? His research pointed him toward the science of how skin behaves as it ages over time, and that thinking shaped the approach behind LYMA Power Youth Skincare. This is what separates it from the cosmetic mainstream, and it is the foundation of LYMA's clinical skincare philosophy.
This is skin longevity sustained, not the photographic aesthetic of youth, but a visible, lasting improvement in the look and feel of skin at any life stage.
Five signs of ageing
Most skincare merely treats the symptoms - dehydration, or dullness - because they are the easiest to show in a before-and-after.
Ageing is not one or two problems.
LYMA looks at ageing across five visible signs. The Power Youth system is formulated to address all five at once rather than one at a time. This is the part your facialist has probably never explained to you.
The first is dryness across the skin's different layers. The 4-Weight Hyaluronic Acid System in LYMA Power Youth Cream is formulated with four molecular weights designed to visibly plump skin from the surface down, rather than the single-weight hyaluronic used in most luxury formulas.
The second is the loss of visible firmness and resilience as skin matures. The Dual Copper Peptide System in LYMA Power Youth Serum is formulated to visibly smooth the appearance of fine lines, going beyond a simple surface treatment.
The third is barrier and microbiome destabilisation. The Probiotic Protein Barrier Complex reduces visible moisture loss within 14 days and supports a balanced-looking skin microbiome - the living layer most formulas ignore entirely.
The fourth is oxidative burden, the daily environmental load that accelerates the visible signs of ageing. Ergothioneine paired with Matsutake Mycelium delivers a rare antioxidant that defends against that load, with effects both immediate and sustained.
The fifth is the loss of visible vitality - dwindling radiance, bounce and even texture - the sign the others build toward. Here sits the most novel ingredient in the range: Microalgae Exosome Technology, which visibly improves the appearance of firmness, elasticity, radiance and texture from 14 days.
What happens to your skin after 28 days of using the LYMA Power Youth system?
So what does all this science mean for your skin?
In LYMA's clinical study, the Power Youth system was assessed over 28 days, and the results speak for themselves.
Through weeks one and two, the hydration system is working across all four depths at once. The plumping effect is immediate and visible. By weeks two to four, the barrier complex has reduced visible moisture loss, and improvements in the appearance of firmness, elasticity and texture become measurable rather than merely felt. At day 28, using LYMA Power Youth Serum and Cream together, the full clinical outcome resolves: up to 71% improvement in hydration, up to 50.2% improvement in the appearance of elasticity, up to 49.7% improvement in skin barrier function and up to 44.9% reduction in the appearance of redness.1
1In an independent clinical study of 30 women aged 35–65, using LYMA Power Youth Serum and Cream together over 28 days: average hydration increase +31.8% (97% of women improved), measured by Corneometer; average barrier improvement (TEWL) −19.7% (97% improved), measured by Tewameter; average elasticity increase +5.5% (60% improved), measured by Cutometer; average reduction in the appearance of redness −8.1% (80% improved), measured by VISIA-CR under dermatological supervision. Figures per LYMA's approved clinical claims; reconfirm against the final signed trial report before publishing.
These are outcomes recorded in a clinical study.
In our clinical study, participants reported the progression above, and customers describe the same arc on their own skin. The system helps defend against environmental stressors and supports the look of a healthy barrier rather than simply sitting on top of it.
The timeline is not generic, either. The LYMA Skin Assessment personalises it: 25–30 questions, a photo upload, and an eight-page report signed by Dr Graeme Glass that establishes your individual LYMA Skin Index. That Index is your baseline and your tracking instrument - the way you see, in numbers, what 28 days has actually done.
Why LYMA Power Youth Skincare goes further: it creates a method
LYMA's Power Youth Skincare is not a serum and a cream sold together. It is a method. And it integrates three things: the assessment that establishes where your skin is, the protocol that moves it forward, and - for existing LYMA Laser owners - the device itself. The LYMA Power Youth Serum and LYMA Power Youth Cream complete what the Laser begins.
The skincare is not a standalone launch bolted onto a device company; it is the logical extension of a clinical philosophy LYMA has held from the start.
This is what Dr Graeme Glass set out to engineer: not a better surface treatment, but a system that works on the visible signs of ageing rather than the surface alone. As the surgeon who authored the LYMA Skin Method, he built Power Youth on a single premise: that skin's appearance is not a look to maintain but a measurable result to achieve.
Most skincare works on the surface. This is formulated to do more. That is the difference between a topical and a method.
