Can I use the LYMA Laser on Black and Brown skin?

Unlike other cosmetic lasers that use heat to inflict direct damage to the skin, or deliver heat to water tissue around cells - which creates thermal damage by heating cells up by up to 4 degrees - the LYMA Laser is engineered to deliver Low-Level Laser Therapy deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production without causing any damage to skin cells.

 

It’s the concept of causing damage in order to stimulate collagen production that makes other cosmetic laser technologies unsuitable for people with Black and Brown skin. This is because the more melanin present in skin, the greater the risk of inflammation, scarring and hyperpigmentation, which can leave the skin with dark pigmentation spots.

 

As this is a zero-damage cosmetic laser technology, there is no risk of scarring to skin which makes it a safe cosmetic solution for all skin tones. This is what sets LYMA Laser technology apart from other cosmetic laser technology and a safe solution for people with Black and Brown skin.
