Stellar M22 AOPT by Lumenis

The Stellar M22™ (by Lumenis) is a Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) platform for treatment of rosacea, particularly for addressing erythema (redness), telangiectasias (visible blood vessels), and inflammatory papules/pustules.

More Information

The Stellar M22 IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a versatile, multi-application aesthetic device developed by Lumenis. It is designed for skin rejuvenation, hair removal, pigmentation treatment, vascular lesion removal, and acne reduction.

Key Features of Stellar M22 IPL:

  1. Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT™) – Enhances safety and efficacy with precise, controlled light pulses.

  2. Customizable Treatments – Adjustable settings for different skin types and conditions.

  3. Minimal Downtime – Non-invasive with quick recovery.

  4. FDA-Cleared & Clinically Proven – Used by dermatologists and aesthetic clinics worldwide.

Common Treatments with Stellar M22 IPL:

✅ Hair Removal – Targets melanin in hair follicles for long-term reduction.
✅ Pigmentation & Sun Spots – Lightens dark spots, freckles, and melasma.
✅ Vascular Lesions – Treats broken capillaries, rosacea, and spider veins.
✅ Skin Rejuvenation – Stimulates collagen for smoother, younger-looking skin.
✅ Acne Treatment – Reduces active acne and inflammation.

How It Works:

The device emits broad-spectrum pulsed light that penetrates the skin and is absorbed by melanin (for hair removal) or hemoglobin (for veins), destroying unwanted targets while sparing surrounding tissue.

Who Is It For?

  • People with unwanted hair, sun damage, redness, or acne.

  • Those seeking non-surgical skin improvement.

  • All skin types (but settings must be adjusted by a professional).

Side Effects & Downtime:

  • Mild redness or swelling (usually fades in hours).

  • Avoid sun exposure before/after treatment.

  • Multiple sessions (typically 4-6) are needed for best results.
