More of us are investing in treatments that support skin health early, so we don’t need to do more later. On this front, Lynton’s RedTouch Pro laser is leading the way – here’s everything you need to know… [ Save To My Favourites ](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/52189) Created in partnership with Lynton [ ![](https://media.sheerluxe.com/TDHCJJZtTTTjeCw9-kNkqauPm6Y=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2026%2F04%2Flynton-laser-3.jpg) ](https://lynton.co.uk/prod/redtouch-pro-prejuvenation-treatment/?utm_source=B2C+Editorial+landing+page&utm_medium=Sheerluxe-April2026-LP&utm_campaign=Sheerluxe-B2C-RTP-LP&utm_id=Sheerlux+April+2026) ## The Background To The Buzz Skincare has come on leaps and bounds in the past few decades. From potent ingredients to innovative delivery systems, getting your skin to look its best should be easier than ever. But – certainly if your concerns are very specific or require a more targeted approach – there comes a point where topical formulas don’t quite cut it. For decades, laser treatments have been used in clinics to resurface skin, reduce pigmentation and boost collagen. But many of these work by creating controlled damage, either to the skin’s surface or by heating water within the tissue, to kickstart repair. From visible smoothness to improved firmness, the results speak for themselves. But in some cases, the benefits come at the cost of downtime, redness, and discomfort. That’s why a growing number of people are booking a treatment that does both: working to prevent signs of ageing, while simulatenously targeting existing signs already present in the skin. The aesthetics industry is never short of buzz phrases, but one actually worth knowing is ‘collagen banking’ – loosely defined as preserving what you already have. Collagen is key because, along with elastin, it’s one of the body’s essential proteins, responsible for keeping your skin firm and bouncy. From your mid-20s onwards, collagen production declines steadily, leading to fine lines, loss of elasticity and changes in texture over time. A new wave of treatments, including Lynton’s [RedTouch Pro](https://lynton.co.uk/prod/redtouch-pro-prejuvenation-treatment/?utm_source=B2C+Editorial+landing+page&utm_medium=Sheerluxe-April2026-LP&utm_campaign=Sheerluxe-B2C-RTP-LP&utm_id=Sheerlux+April+2026), focus on improving lines, wrinkles, skin laxity and pigmentation, while also stimulating collagen to maintain those results long term. ## What Sets This One Apart Unlike traditional lasers, Lynton’s [RedTouch Pro](https://lynton.co.uk/prod/redtouch-pro/) is the first and only device to use a 675nm wavelength to directly target collagen rather than water, meaning it works at the source of skin ageing. It works by delivering microscopic energy beams into the dermis, creating tiny heat zones. At lower energies, it supercharges cellular activity and collagen production, creating a stronger, firmer surface; whereas at higher energies, it contracts existing collagen fibres, encouraging the body’s natural repair processes. The key result? The skin’s surface remains completely intact. You may experience mild redness for half an hour, but otherwise this treatment requires minimal downtime – perfect for slotting into a busy schedule.

With consistent sessions, it can help tighten, firm, improve pigmentation and even boost the overall quality of your skin. It’s also a brilliant multitasker, effective across a variety of concerns from dullness to acne scarring – making it a versatile option for those looking to address several issues at once. ## The Experts' Verdict "There’s still a common misconception that laser treatments need to be aggressive to be effective - and that simply isn’t true. RedTouch Pro is a perfect example of ‘prejuvenation’: supporting and protecting your skin before more advanced signs of ageing appear. It works by preserving collagen and slowing down the ageing process, rather than trying to reverse it later. It’s completely non-invasive and easy to integrate into a long-term skin plan." **–** *Dr Aggie Zatonska, Atelier* "Importantly, and in my experience, one of its biggest advantages is that it can be used across all skin types, including higher Fitzpatrick skins, because it targets collagen rather than melanin. So we are not creating the same level of heat-related risk that’s seen with traditional lasers." ***–** Dr Ariel Haus, Dr Haus Dermatology* "RedTouch works differently, stimulating the fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, without that injury pathway. For my patients at Adonia this is significant because we get real structural rejuvenation with far less downtime and a much more comfortable experience." **–** *Dr Ifeoma Ejikeme, Adonia Medical Clinic* ## What You Can Expect Most people describe experiencing minimal discomfort during the treatment itself, and because there’s little to no downtime, you can go straight back to your day afterwards. Picture the kind of glow people notice without quite being able to pinpoint why. The RedTouch Pro is also suitable for a wide range of skin types (I-V), making it a more inclusive option than some traditional laser treatments. *For more information about the RedTouch Pro, visit*
