Ingredients
Pure Hyaluronic Acid (Serum)
Hyaluronic Acid is a major component of skin, where it is involved in tissue repair. Skin provides a mechanical barrier to the external environment and acts to prevent the ingress of infectious agents.
Hyaluronic Acid that holds 1000 times weight in water and saturate the skin with hydration and retains the essential dissolved oxygen for wound healing. Once injured, the tissues beneath are exposed to infection; therefore, rapid and effective healing is of crucial significance to reconstruct a barrier function. While found naturally throughout our body, Hyaluronic Acid unfortunately has a short shelf life and is naturally broken down and flushed out of the body in one to three days. For this reason, it is imperative that the body continually replenish itself with Hyaluronic Acid. Application of Hymed’s Pure Hyaluronic Acid serum daily after post laser treatment helps in hydration and healing of the skin and minimizes scabbing.
Clinical studies have shown (Ref; 1 & 2) that radiated wounds heal quicker with Hyaluronic Acid. Holding 1000 times its weight in water, Hyaluronic Acid effectively binds water to cells, and is responsible for the elasticity and resilience of the skin. According to Dr. Brian Jegasothy, M.D., former Chairman of the Department of Dermatology at the University of Pittsburgh: “Hyaluronic Acid is possibly the most effective topical humectants currently available: more effective in its water retention properties than glycerin, sorbitol, collagen etc. In addition, its ability to associate with lipids in skin surface membranes greatly enhances its ability to deliver its retained water and enriches its property by reducing the trans epidermal water loss”. Since 1988, Hylunia – Hymed has worked with the healing properties of hyaluronic acid and based the entire skin care product lines around the proven healing and hydrating properties of Hyaluronic Acid.

Grape Stem Cells
Grape stem cells have shown to regenerate adult stem cells in the basal layer of the skin. Grape stem cells contain epigenetic factors and metabolites which are able to protect against UV radiation which destroys adult stem cells in the skin. The grape stem cells high in anthocyanin is an anti-oxidant and
anti-inflammatory. The grape stem cells in the Post Laser Balm accelerate the regeneration of the skin.

Centipeda Cunninghamii Extract
Commonly known as Old Man Weed, it is a plant known to indigenous Australians for its medicinal properties. It can be identified by its unique shaped leaf and its pungent scent, which is pine like and minty. This extraordinary botanical extract from the Daisy family demonstrates outstanding results for its distinct ability to minimize inflammation and increase fibroblast cells. A study by Wellington School of Medicine in New Zealand discovered that Centipeda Cunninghammi solution less than 1% is more active than Methyl Salicylate such as Aspirin by 3,000 times and increase the rate of fibroblast growth by 50%. Hymed’s Post Laser Balm contains 3% Centipeda Cunninghamii solution and activity has increased by 3000 times in anti- inflammatory property compared to Methyl Salicylate. Furthermore, Centipeda Cunninghammi increase the fibroblast growth and promotes cell regeneration and healing and minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The Old Man Weed has been patented by a company in Australia and is claimed to be effective in the treatment of various skin disorders including the relief of itching and dry skin from psoriasis, as well as having anti-inflammatory, anti-allergenic, cell renewal properties and an SPF 6.

Beta Glucan
Beta glucan extracted from oats and other sources can communicate with immune system and can stimulate the macrophages which ingest and destroys pathogens. Macrophages releases cytokines which communicate with other immune cells. Furthermore, beta glucan stimulates the white blood cells to viruses and tumours and releases chemicals to destroy them. Beta glucan acts as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant. University of Alberta ( Canada) studies have shown that beta glucan can help in wound healing and reduction in scaring.
Calendula
Calendula, also known as Marigold, is used in Europe for centuries for herbal remedy and is well known for its anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Calendula extract is rich in beta-carotene, stearin, triterpenoids, flavonoids and coumarin, as well as microelements. For this reason, Calendula is known for its powerful wound-healing and skin-soothing properties. It is usually used externally for it’s antiseptic and healing properties in treating skin infections, cuts, punctures, scrapes, burns and chapped or chafed skin.
Green Tea
Indian Ayurvedic, Chinese, Tibetan and other Eastern medical practitioners have found by experimenting over thousands of years with Green Tea. Extracts of Green Tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly polyphenols and catechins, which have a wide array of anti-inflammatory, adaptogenic, anticarcinogenic and antiseptic properties. L-Theanine, a chemical found in Green Tea, is known to soothe and calm the skin, while caffeine and epigallocatechin gallate, the most abundant catechin in green tea, helps protect the skin from UV-radiation induced damage and skin cancer formation by stimulating the production of interleukins that repair the skin’s DNA. Green tea creates micro circulation and helps in product penetration and efficacy.
Hymed uses green tea extract that is concentrated to 50% polyphenol and is 400 times more potent than normal green tea extract.
Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemum has been used for centuries to treat inflammation and headaches. Chrysanthemum Indicum is an aqueous extract rich in specific flavonoids and two saponosides. The synergic blend of Green Tea and Chrysanthemum provides skin with the most powerful antioxidants to protect against DNA alteration from sun exposure and free radicals created during laser procedure.
Preservation System
The Post Laser Balm is preserved with a combination of Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Olive leaf extract, wasabi extraxt.
Shea Butter (Natural substitute for Petrolatum)
Shea butter is an ivory-colored natural emollient extracted from the nut of the African shea tree by crushing, boiling and stirring. It is widely used in skin care as a moisturizer. African healers and beauties have known about shea butter for thousands of years: the substance is almost magical in its healing effects on burns, skin conditions, ulcerated skin, stretch marks, and dryness. It contains beneficial vegetable emollient that promote cell regeneration and circulation, making it a wonderful healer and rejuvenator for troubled or aging skin. It also contains natural sun-protectants.
Shea butter is sometimes called “women’s gold”, because extracting the butter from the nuts gives employment and income to hundreds of thousands of rural African village women. Hylunia- Hymed is a Fair-Trade Company and import Shea butter from Ghana.
Dr. Jegasothy selected hyaluronic acid as the primary healing and hydrating agent. The team used high molecular weight ( 2 million Dalton) pharmaceutical-grade Hyaluronic Acid that holds 1000 times weight in water and saturate the skin with hydration and retains the essential dissolved oxygen for wound healing. Hyaluronic acid super hydrated improves texture, minimizes itching, improves desquamation, minimizes scabbing and Minimizes acne/ millia formation compared to occlusive petrolatum in laser resurfaced skin.
The Beginning
HYMED Skin Care was developed to help wound healing after post laser, surgical procedures as an alternative to traditional occlusive petrolatum based post care by Brain Jegasothy,MD, formerly chair, Dept of Dermatology, University of Pittsburgh ( Link 1- Bio) and Dr. Lingam, a rocket scientist with Ayurvedic medicine roots. As a research dermatologist, Dr. Jegasothy’s evaluation of irritants in skin care in 1988, led to the discovery that 99% of skincare had inflammatory and irritating ingredients that can cause free radical damage and hence premature aging as well as slowing down of wound healing process. This discovery resulted in Hylunia skin care in 1988 and Hymed in 1994.
The introduction of laser treatments in the nineties especially, carbon dioxide lasers needed an alternative to petrolatum based laser post care and irritant free post laser care. When the skin is wounded, healing process of epithelialization, collagen deposition, wound contraction and neo vascularization must happen smoothly without interruption. Any slowing down of the healing process results in complications and may not achieve the desired results. First step, Dr. Jegasothy and the team of physicians, scientists and toxicologist with a combined 200 years of experience did was to remove all preservatives, fragrances, dye, lanolin and inflammatory ingredients. The second thing, the team did was to incorporate anti-inflammatory and potent powerful antioxidants, healing and growth factor stimulating ingredients.
