The Magic Behind the Lumenis Stellar M22 Laser
The Lumenis Stellar M22 works by delivering carefully controlled light and laser energy to specific targets in the skin. Different technologies within the platform are designed to address concerns such as pigment, redness, texture, and scars while protecting the surrounding tissue. Each component interacts with the skin in a unique way to promote clearer skin.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Intense pulsed light uses broad-spectrum light energy that penetrates the skin and is absorbed by pigment (melanin) or blood vessels (hemoglobin). The light converts into heat, which breaks down excess pigment and collapses visible vessels. Your body gradually clears these particles through natural healing processes, leading to a more even skin tone and reduced redness.
ResurFX Fractional Non-Ablative Laser
ResurFX is a fractional laser that creates microscopic thermal zones within the deeper layers of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact. These tiny treatment zones stimulate the body’s natural repair response, encouraging collagen production and cellular renewal. Over time, this process improves skin texture, softens acne scars, and reduces fine lines.
Q-switched Nd:YAG Laser
The Q-switched Nd:YAG laser delivers extremely short bursts of high-energy light that specifically target pigment particles. These rapid pulses shatter pigment or tattoo ink into tiny fragments that the body can then naturally eliminate through the lymphatic system. This technology is particularly effective for deeper pigmentation and darker tattoos.
Multi-spot Nd:YAG Laser
The long-pulse Nd:YAG laser targets deeper vascular structures beneath the skin. Its wavelength penetrates deeper layers, where it heats and collapses unwanted blood vessels while sparing surrounding tissue. The body gradually absorbs these treated blood vessels over time, improving the appearance of redness and small visible veins.
