The Stellar M22™ uses OPT® (Optimal Pulse Technology) to deliver high peak power, shorter pulses – making it optimal for IPL skin treatments using photo-rejuvenation and the treatment of benign pigmented lesions.
Stellar IPL photofacial treatment targets brown and red pigment in the skin. They can also target the bacteria that causes acne, reducing its severity, along with stimulating collagen production, to help firm skin and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Stellar IPL treatments can be done on the face, neck, chest, arms, and the backs of hands.
The MSP™ (multiple-sequential pulse) technology allows for cooling in between pulses, therefore reducing the possibility of skin damage during treatments.
You treatment plan will be determine after on site evaluation of your skin. Depending on the spots depth you may need 2-3 treatments. Some spots may comeback after a period of time. Proper SPF protection is required post treatment. We may refer you to a dermatologist if some spots need additional analysis or biopsy.

What to expect after IPL treatments?
Shortly after treatment, the unwanted pigment granules (melanin) have been thoroughly fragmented without damage to the surrounding tissue. Vascular lesions (spider veins) also coagulate and shrink, many of them disappearing altogether. Skin tone and texture improve as a result of heat deposits into the tissue.
In the weeks after treatment, the now tiny melanin particles are eliminated by your body’s own little “clean up” system that absorbs fragmented pigment. Little or no trace of the initial pigmentation spots or spidery veins remain.
Because the treatment is gentle, there is no interruption of routine activities. Pigment rises to the surface and looks and feels a bit like coffee grounds. Let them exfoliate naturally to avoid interfering with the process which takes generally a little under a week.

IPL Hair Reduction Treatments
The Stellar M22™ can be used to remove unwanted hair on the bikini area, legs, and underarms as well as elsewhere on the body. Typically, treatment consists of 6 visits and then converts to a maintenance phase. Occasionally, more treatment may be required.
Removing unwanted hair with Lumenis Stellar M22™ IPL is a non-invasive treatment that destroys hair follicles, resulting in smooth and beautiful skin. Our unique IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology targets hair follicles and disrupts their ability to grow. Lumenis Stellar M22 IPL hair solution is effective on black, brown, blonde and red hairs.
IPL hair removal technology – Highly controlled light pulses are applied to the treated area and are selectively absorbed by the hair follicles below the skin surface. The absorbed light heats the hair follicles, which damages the follicle’s re-growth potential – all without damaging the surrounding tissue.
