Photofractional Comprehensive Laser Rejuvenation

For radiant skin that everyone will notice

The Stellar M22™ Photofractional Comprehensive Laser Rejuvenation treatment is a complex skin rejuvenation solution that targets the early or obvious signs of ageing.

What is Photofractional comprehensive laser rejuvenation

Lumenis® Photofractional™ is a comprehensive skin rejuvenation solution that delivers remarkable results by correcting all the signs associated with skin aging such as age and sun spots, vascular lesions, uneven skin texture and color. The unique Photofractional Complex Laser Rejuvenation technology includes two proven solutions: treating pigmentation and superficial vascular lesions with IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and ResurFX™ non-ablative skin renewal. Photofractional complex laser rejuvenation evens the complexion, smooths fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin texture for a more youthful and radiant complexion.

What Photofractional does for you

The Lumenis Stellar M22 IPL uses a wavelength of light that is attracted to the pigment and surface blood vessels in the skin. Dark spots, sun damage and broken capillaries absorb the energy from the laser. As a result, the pigment damage gradually lightens and the broken blood vessels close and eventually disappear. Your skin is left clearer, more even and much brighter!

Lumenis ResurFX™ uses a fractionated laser beam to create a network of tiny thermal injuries on the surface of your skin. Your physician will choose the parameters and treatment depth best suited for you to address common concerns such as acne scars, enlarged pores, and stretch marks. ResurFX™ stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin fibers in the deeper layers of the skin, resulting in firmer, smoother, tighter skin over time.
