Lumenis Stellar M22™ Laser in Southlake, TX

Intended Use & Treatment Suitability

The Lumenis Stellar M22 is a multi-application aesthetic platform used for light-based and non-ablative fractional laser treatments intended to improve the appearance of certain cosmetic skin concerns, including uneven pigmentation, visible redness, skin texture, and fine lines.

IPL and ResurFX use different technologies and have distinct treatment indications, precautions, and potential risks. Not every treatment is appropriate for every skin type, condition, or treatment area. Individual suitability and treatment settings are determined based on applicable screening and professional assessment.

Contraindications & Precautions

Certain medical conditions, medications, allergies, active skin infections, open wounds, recent tanning or significant sun exposure, photosensitivity, pregnancy or breastfeeding, history of abnormal scarring, recent cosmetic procedures, or other individual factors may affect treatment eligibility or require postponement or modification of treatment.

Clients must disclose relevant medical history, medications, skincare products, recent procedures, and changes in their skin condition before treatment. Specific contraindications and precautions vary between IPL and ResurFX and are assessed according to applicable treatment protocols.

Potential Side Effects & Complications

Depending on the treatment, possible side effects may include temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, warmth, irritation, dryness, itching, or changes in skin appearance. Following IPL, treated pigmented areas may temporarily darken before fading. ResurFX may involve temporary roughness, dryness, or peeling during recovery.

Less common complications may include burns, blistering, crusting, infection, allergic or inflammatory reactions, pigmentation changes (hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation), scarring, or other treatment-specific adverse effects. The nature, severity, and duration of side effects and complications can vary, ranging from mild and temporary to more significant or potentially lasting effects. Not all risks apply to every treatment, and individual responses may differ.

Good Faith Exam (GFE) & Medical Evaluation

An appropriate medical evaluation, including a Good Faith Exam (GFE), is required before treatment when applicable under Texas law and SVIT Aesthetics' clinical protocols. Treatment eligibility, medical screening requirements, and the need for additional evaluation depend on the specific procedure and individual circumstances.

All applicable medical evaluations must be completed before the relevant treatment.

Client Intake & Medical History

First-time clients are requested to complete SVIT Aesthetics' New Client Intake Form before their initial appointment. Accurate and complete disclosure of medical history, medications, allergies, recent sun exposure, tanning, prior aesthetic procedures, and other relevant information is important for treatment screening.

Clients should promptly inform SVIT Aesthetics of any relevant changes before subsequent treatments.

Informed Consent & Treatment Documentation

Applicable treatment-specific consent forms and required documentation must be completed before treatment. Consent forms may address the nature of the procedure, potential risks, contraindications, alternatives, and expected responses.

By voluntarily signing the applicable consent form, the client acknowledges the information provided, confirms their decision to proceed with the selected treatment, and voluntarily authorizes SVIT Aesthetics and its authorized providers to perform the agreed-upon procedure. Clients have the right to ask questions and decline or withdraw consent before treatment. Additional documentation or updated consent may be required depending on the treatment and individual circumstances.

Pre- & Post-Treatment Care

Clients are expected to follow applicable pre- and post-treatment instructions, including recommendations regarding sun exposure, skincare products, skin protection, and activities during recovery. These instructions may be provided verbally and/or in writing depending on the procedure.

Failure to follow recommended precautions may increase the likelihood of adverse reactions or affect treatment outcomes. Clients should promptly contact SVIT Aesthetics if they experience unexpected or concerning reactions following treatment.

Results & Treatment Expectations

Individual treatment responses and results vary based on skin characteristics, treatment settings, cosmetic concerns, lifestyle factors, and adherence to recommended care.

Multiple sessions or maintenance treatments may be appropriate. No specific degree of improvement, number of sessions, duration of results, or absence of complications is guaranteed. IPL and ResurFX treatments are elective aesthetic procedures and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent medical conditions unless expressly indicated and appropriately authorized.
