I’d be lying if I said that I wasn’t interested in achieving that these professional laser treatments produce: namely improved skin texture, reduced redness, fewer wrinkles, and a more even complexion. So you can imagine my excitement when I heard about the launch of a new skincare device that promises all of the power of a medical-grade laser without any of the downtime, pain, or side effects. Best of all? The device is safe enough to use at home, all on your own—no trip to the derm needed. Well, as it turns out, this magical device is called the LYMA Laser, and by the sound of it, it was going to be the answer to all my dull, uneven complexion woes.

How Does the LYMA Laser Work?
The LYMA Laser is completely unlike anything you would see at your dermatologist’s office. Although outfitted with an industrial-grade 500-milliwatt laser (most at-home devices range between 5-20 milliwatts in power), this small, handheld device operates in a much different way. While in-office treatments like Fraxel, IPL, Dermapen inflict thermal damage to the skin so that it regenerates itself, the LYMA Laser doesn’t damage or heat the skin at all.
According to Goff, it’s that controlled dispersion that allows the light to penetrate through each of the layers of the skin. It passes the fat and muscle tissue beneath in order to trigger a genetic response inside the cells. By stimulating the skin all the way to the bottommost layer, the LYMA Laser essentially activates the body’s natural renewal process. This leads to an increase in collagen and elastin production and the creation of healthy new skin cells.
